Nice and quiet place to stay and explore. The location is best to view the beautiful town and lake below. Lots of hiking trails besides the long winding road to and fro Ascona. WiFi is not readily available and tugging suitcase over the cobblestone is a challenge. Breakfast is great.

Das Hotel ist etwas besonderes, historisch und in einem tollen Park. Die Aussicht ist super, es gibt kostenlose Parkplätze und schöne Wanderwege in der direkten Umgebung. Preis/Leistung gut. Vorweg: Ich werde bestimmt nochmal wiederkommen. Bei meinem Besuch war ich aufgrund der Bestimmungen vom Bundesrat gezwungen, im Hotelrestaurant zu speisen. Das Restaurant war leider enttäuschend. Die Speisen waren leider nicht gut, der Service war träge und unzureichend.

Nice hotel with gorgeous view on Lago Maggiore
very nice hotel, a car is highly recommended as the hotel is up a steep hill, gorgeous view on Lago Maggiore, breakfast is served on a beautiful terrace, nice breakfast buffet, the lake area (Switzerland and Italy) can be easily explored when staying at the hotel, Locarno is within walking distance, some might prefer a taxi for returning to the hotel

Great Lake Maggiore visit
Fantastic room with views and elevation - quite warm in July 15-17 2015 to 35C without aircon and mosquitoes makes nights very warm- kept windows open and mosquitoes etc - less sleep. Great breakfast on top terrace. Admin staff and all just lovely. Will return.

Not good!
This is the first time I have used hotels.com and the write-up was not representative of the hotel. This is a three star hotel and the rooms I was first given were like a youth hostel room, one did not even have a window to look out of. I was moved to a better room after complaining and showing the staff the photographs on the hotels.com website. I still did not get a room as per the pictures.

Une chambre spartiate avec le minima d’équipement. Pas de moquette au sol ( composite) des lits très bas et trop mous mais une très belle vue sur le lac et un personnel chaleureux C’est un peu cher payé

Wunderschön gelegen und herrlich ruhig. Ideal zum Ausspannen. Man hat mir unkompliziert noch eine Nacht Verlängerung arrangiert, obwohl sie fast voll waren. Das habe ich sehr geschätzt und werde sicher wieder kommen.

The gentleman at the reception as well as the lady at breakfast were so friendly. It was a really special place, with Bauhaus architecture and an interesting history. Even if it took me a lot of effort to hike up to the hotel from the lake, it was totally worth it!

Eine Wohlfühloase
ich hatte bereits vor einem Jahr alleine im Monte Verità übernachtet und dieses Jahr mit der ganzen Familie. Mir gefällt der Ort, die Gebäude und die Zimmer im Bauhaus mit den grossen Balkonen und der tollen Aussicht. Dazu kommt die Ruhe. Ich habe jede Nacht bestens geschlafen

Tainted by disappointing service
Unfortunately, this special place appears to be losing its soul. Compared with our last stay, the breakfast was very basic and the service only half-hearted. Worst of all, upon check-out the receptionist deliberately and pejoratively called me "Natasha", which felt as treating me with contempt as a guest. This was very embarassing and unprofessional, and discourages me from visiting this hotel ever again.

Very nice location. You feel like in a little resort. The rooms looks like an hospital room. Only white with convenience bed. But everything was clean. We have an amazing view on the lake from the balcony.
