Top Old Town Hotel Reviews

Palazzo Canetti Locarno

10/10 Excellent

"Bed was comfortable. Bathroom spacious enough. Terrace is nice for relaxing. "

Hotel City Locarno, Design & Hospitality

10/10 Excellent

"I was greeted warmly at the front desk and advised that I had received a room upgrade! Our room was clean and spacious with a fridge and a small balcony. The bed was very comfortable too. Self-parking was easy with access to the hotel via a lift. We were centrally located in Locarno and close to the waterfront walkway which made for a pleasant evening walk. We were offered a 10% off coupon for breakfast but did not end up using it. Friendly hotel - we would definitely stay there again!"

Hotel Muralto

10/10 Excellent

"Property was perfect for us. We stayed in room 50 with an awe inspiring view. That was the most important feature for us. Our room was spacious and clean. With a large bed, two twin beds pushed together, very supportive and comfortable. Hotel Muralto is an older property that has been well cared for and updated. Staff are very kind, helpful and attentive. We stayed in Locarno for 2 weeks and found that Hotel Muralto to be the right balance of comfort and functionality at a very good price. The property is located within a 6 minute walk from the train/bus station so super convenient. Please note the pathways up from the train station and downtown can be a little steep and challenging for someone with mobility issues, but there are convenient bus options just steps from the hotel door. Locarno is a lovely city and ever so peaceful in the evening. We left our balcony door open for nature’s AC which is quite comfortable in April and May. We will definitely be back!"
