The inn is isolated from town and accessible by cab ($20 CHF) or cable car.Felt like once we were there we were tucked in for the night. Room was shabby chic with a rickety bed and no where to sit and read other than the balcony with a small bistro set. Had to ask for extra pillows. Owner was no where to be found on arrival until after 5PM. The view is amazing. Overall, it needs an update. Was glad we were only booked for 2 nights.

somewhat disappointing

Very disappointed by this B&B. Room not ready at arrival (1st problem). Our « final » room was not… the one we booked! The « large double room ». According to the owner, this denomination is nothing else than a « standard room » and he added that « anyways the room you booked is occupied by someone else »!

The room he gave us was the one with the newest mattress because we made a comment about the (awful) bed from the previous night. However, a simple question in the morning about our room choice could have avoided this 2nd problem. And no price reduction was offered for that.

We stayed 3 nights in our « final » room. The beds were not done when we came back in the evening. Place clean otherwise. Bathroom had a sad look. Breakfast (continental) was ok (pre-cooked bread), really no opulence. Which reveals the hospitality of this house and its owners (according to us).

PS: for people travelling with public transportation and willing to benefit from the Ticino Ticket, the funicular Madonna del Sasso is not included. Return ticket is 5.70.-. I do not recommend this place for its practical location when it comes to coming back in the night (bus 2 otherwise, stops at 20:30/8:30PM). 

From the Piazza Grande, you have to climb up 220m of steep slope to get to the B&B.

But the view is amazing. Up to you to choose.

Only frustration during our stay...

The hotel is a huge, old hill-side mansion with great views from the hotel rooms. The room are shabby-chic, and each has a private bathroom with a huge bathtub - although you do have to cross the landing to get to it! Breakfast was tasty, and Locarno centre is a charming place which you can access easily from the hotel via the vehicular railway (a short walk away) or you can walk down into town by many stone steps and past a beauful old church. You can also go up the mountain by cable car (again a short walk from the hotel). 

Be aware the hotel has no lift.

Lots character with friendly owners

This hotel is situated in an old mansion. Needless to say that it can be quite loud, if you have the wrong neighbours. The big family which runs the hotel is easy-going, but not very attentive. The rooms are very charming (the beds could be better) and the view on the city of Locarno is just exceptionally nice. Room for improvement is definitely the breakfast - there is only bread, yoghurt, some slices of cheese and orange Juice - I would definitely expect more there. All in all, I would definitely go back there for a long weekend, but not for a whole week.

Good value for money with a great view

Excellent location, lovely old building with all modern appliances.

The bathrooms are not in the room, but each room has his own private bathroom on the corridor, this special feature adds to the charm of the building. All very clean and kept with the age of the building.

The hotel terrace and the private balconies have a lovely view over Locarno.

The are is very quiet and relaxing. The parking is available outside the building and a close by walking distance a well appointed restaurant.

The breakfast is continental and you also have a kitchen to use if needed to cook.

Overall 2 nights spent with 4 friends in 3 bedrooms while doing a Triathlon competition.
