Wonderful Hotel
Excellent hotel! Clean with great staff. We had a suite facing the lake and had a wonderful view. Breakfast was included and was very good. Location was close to restaurants and walking along the waterfront was very much enjoyed. Took a bus to Aston’s and this town was very much enjoyed. Also took the lift up to Arcada for excellent views of the lake and mountains. Excellent hotel and would stay there again

Really good hotel. Centrally located, close to the lake but very little noise at night - despite our stay coinciding with the annual film festival. Breakfast was excellent, with lots of choice. Staff were wonderful and very helpful. Room was clean and well equipped.

It was a nice hotel. Great breakfast! The photos led me to believe it was on the lake with a beach. It is not, it’s on the other side of a busy street from the lake. The beach is down the road. We discovered a great pool & beach facility that was enjoyable.

Great location with beautiful view. Front desk very slow. Too much noise from dogs and children. Why not put all couples on one floor, all couples with children together. Children running and creaming ruined my vacation

The hotel is nice abd rooms clean. The only thing was that the bed is terrible. I read earlier some comments about their beds, but did not think it could be this bad. Did not have a good sleep in this hotel. I was still awake at 4am..
Safety box was not working and they did not come to fix it even tho they promised twice.

100% Recommend
We absolutely loved this hotel. It's an easy pleasant walk along the lake from the station. The reception staff are multilingual and are very helpful. We chose a studio room with lake view. It was super comfortable with an amazing view of the lake. There are lots of restaurants in Locarno but we decided to include breakfast and evening meal at the time of booking. Breakfast is buffet style and offers a super range of excellent quality foods. Supper was waiter service; sometimes it's à la carte, other times an abridged menu. But regardless every dish was excellent! You will not be disappointed. The head waiter is marvellous and made each evening an enjoyable experience, he was pleased to explain the dishes to us and I noticed him doing so in several languages. His team are professional and friendly; they simply make you feel welcome, comfortable and relaxed. The garden setting for the restaurant is lovely with the lake visible through the trees and shrubs.
The hotel is spacious and kept immaculately clean. There is a pool, small but perfect for a cooling dip. We didn't use the gym. It was far too warm to use the roof terrace, the view up there is fabulous.
We flew in via Milan, transferred by bus to the central station and caught the train direct to Locarno. An Italian woman on our flight said Locarno is the most beautiful part of Majjiore. I can't compare but I think she may be right! If you go, we can definitely recommend the Arcadia Hotel.
Isola Brissago is a must see.
