Southern Cook Islands Scuba Diving Vacations

Clean hotel with great service. The only downsides to this property is that the $150 deposit wasn’t disclosed until after I already booked and prepaid for the room & the parking is $40 a night (in a garage that’s across the street). Other than that, this is a great place to spend a night or two.

The hotel and the room are clean and comfortable. The staff are very friendly and the breakfast great! I loved the central location, literally 5 minutes walk from St. Peter Basilica.

Alice and the staff in the Gold Experience were beyond helpful. Loved the room, balcony and service overall.

This was a wonderful hotel to stay at over the weekend! Nearby is a wonderful Brazilian restaurant I went to every day, Bossa Nova, and in the opposite direction was a lovely donut/ice cream/hot dog shop I went to on the last day. I paid a bit more than I usually would so I could get a corner suite, and it was beautiful! I imagined living my entire life there lol. Everything was extremely comfortable. I did notice some scratches on some doors and a missing lightbulb in a lamp, but nothing that truly impeded my stay. The staff were very accommodating, even when they missed a wakeup call I requested the night before and hence I missed my bus back home, they did everything in their capabilities to cater to my needs after purchasing another bus ticket, such as allowing me to securely store my bags in the locked lobby closet, allowing me to access the closet throughout the day after my time in the room was up, and providing me with a card to access the floor of amenities for the hotel until it was time for my departure. Missing my bus due to a staff member failing to note down my wakeup call request cost me roughly $100 and a day of work, but I was refunded one day's fees worth almost $40, and the staff did their best to accommodate me. I also had an unexpectedly great day wandering around the city after having a packed schedule through the weekend, so for that I am thankful. Downtown LA is truly wonderful and this is the best hotel in the area.

Hotel Locarno is an absolute gem. Steeped in history and maintaining an air of grace and splendour that is rare these days. This is a true grand dame. Impeccable service, impeccable beauty, impeccable cleanliness, impeccable cocktails, an impeccable sleep and an impeccable breakfast. I’ve been aching for service like this again, never change.

My only complaints are: There was what appeared to be some sort of vomit or maybe food on the rug in our room. The rugs/carpet in general could use a cleaning or replacing. The pool could be open a bit longer. It closes at sunset. They also need a blender to make blended drinks! The staff is amazing. They are polite, professional, friendly, and eager to make your stay as comfortable as possible. From the concierge, valet, kitchen staff, and cleaning crew to the bartender and spa staff. They truly make your stay top notch. The rooms are beautiful and spacious. The resort is very close to the ocean, though the photos are a bit misleading since they make it look like you just go out the door onto the beach. It’s about a mile walk to get there. The massage therapist was amazing. They bring everything to your room and tailor the massage to your preferences. The deep tissue massage was exactly what I needed. I would definitely stay again!

Elevators are too quick to close doors prior to boarding.

Overall a good experience. The property was clean and staff friendly at the bar as well. I enjoyed the proximity to other hotels. Cons: No coffee maker or water in the bedrooms! Bring your water folks cause coffee is 10.00 at Starbucks downstairs. They want you to spend money there. Nice size pool. Plenty of slot options.
