Swiss ramblers

Hotel is perfectly positioned for the train and the lake. Staff were excellent, breakfast plentiful and the room was very comfortable. A USB port wouldn’t go amiss (first world problem, I know). Highly recommended.

Absolutely gorgeous hotel. Facing lake Maggiore. We had a very large room that had a sauna in the bathroom. We also had a large balcony and kitchen. It was a great space. The dining/bar patio was incredible. Sitting there and facing the lake enjoying some cocktails. They gave great food recommendations with discounts to nearby restaurants. Very walkable and right next to train station. They gave us a departure gift of two local beers. Loved it here.

Perfection with one glaring issue: DOGS

Amazing stay, loved it, it was literally perfection with the expedition of so many people allowed with dogs at the restaurant it seemed a bit off and kinda off putting but other than that would stay again. And highly recommend.

The Hotel Lago Maggiore is everything you’d want for your time in Locarno and more. It is modern, beautiful, sparkling clean, well-maintained, expertly staffed, and ideally located. What truly distinguishes the hotel is first and foremost how you are treated, from the warm welcome and recognition of returning guests to the attention they pay to every detail, with extra kindnesses that include bottles of water in your room each day and a thank you gift when you leave. The view from each of the lakeside rooms is absolutely stunning and instantly brings a smile to your face when you open the drapes in the morning. It is wonderful sitting outside whether on the room’s terrace, the rooftop terrace, or on the ground-level bar/lounge/restaurant terrace. The icing on the cake is the restaurant. Breakfast is delicious, as is lunch, but dinner is truly exceptional — do try the tasting menu for an unforgettably perfect meal! We had a terrific time and hope to return soon!

When I walked into this property I knew it was going to be a great stay. The presentation of everything is fantastic. The setting on the lake is gorgeous and when I got to the room it was no different. The room was absolutely spectacular as the rest of the property was . The bed was super comfortable. All high-end hardware for the door handles the bathroom hardware. Everything was an incredibly high standard quality build. Even the hotel room door is something I would love to have on my own house. Great place and I will definitely be staying there again. Maybe next summer
