Perfect view of the Lake Maggiore

Pros: The situation was ideal as it was in the centre directly overlooking Lake Maggiore.
Cons: Modernization of the bathroom, consider providing a fan during warm days.
Location: Just near the jetty where boat trips leave for Isle of Brissago, Locarno and other neighboring sites. Very central to restaurant and the shopping area
Bedroom view was the Lake Maggiore and proved to be the most pleasing part of the stay. Room size was alright although the bathroom and shower facilities needed an upgrade. During the stay, the weather was warm and with no airconditioning it was a bit stiffling and humid. Restaurant personnel serving at night was slow that made various customers leave as prompt attention was not given.

Old and unrenovated hotel, with slightly unfriendly staff (at the reception). The room was nice with an enchanting view of the lake. The walls were very thin and so we heard everything from the next room. There was no mini bar in the room.
