The old town area doesn't disappoint: beautiful historical buildings, narrow cobblestone roads with boutiques and local restaurants to explore. Caffe del Arte is so close to all, walkability score is high: town square, churches and waterfront trail. The Zebra Room is nicely appointed: great firm bed, dining table and great storage space. I loved the shower power! Do use the Ticino transit card for discounts - we forgot. Next time!

Charming Hotel
Our experience was lovely. A romantic little hotel in the middle of town. Reception initialy a little frosty but very professional, warming up with time. The rooms slightly dusty but clean and charming. Shower could be improved.

Lovely, central hotel
Absolutely lovely room - we had the suite. Clean and comfortable. We stayed right after Covid restrictions were lifted so they seemed a bit short staffed, which would make sense. Great location, close to the main piazza and sights. Would definitely recommend.

5 stars!
This place was truly a hidden gem! Estella and her aunty were so kind and so helpful! We arrived late at night, around 9pm, and they were so kind and patient with us after a very stressful travel day. Estella even helped me with my luggage onto the second floor! The room was very clean, and overall the hotel had a very family friendly vibe. I would recommend this hotel if you’re staying in Locarno! Close to so many little shops and restaurants!

Funky and elegant, perfectly located in the small streets of a historic, fashionable area. Inventive, delicious breakfasts in a small garden patio loaded with fruit trees and parasols. Love the family that runs it--including their charitable foundation.

We loved Caffe dell Arte overall. I with they didn't charge so much extra for breakfast (30 CHF?) but otherwise we had a great experience.

A true original
Unlike any place we've ever stayed. Small, intimate, with the kind of warmth and personal service you rarely see in a hotel. Great location near Grand Plaza in the old part of the city, 5 mins from water. Modern design but still quaint. Estella and her mother are terrific hosts. Be sure to sign up for their breakfast--it will amaze. All local produce. Also try the Cittadella restaurant next door for its seafood.

Almost there...
The hotel had a narrow check-in time between 3:00-5:00pm - we arrived at 3:00pm and only construction workers were there and the other doors were locked - we came back at 3:15 and someone was there to check us in; however, we did it all in the hallway as there were major renovations happening in the lobby and breakfast area. We received a croissant, juice and banana for breakfast (was left on a table in the hallway) understandable as the majority of the first floor was under renovation. Wifi was free but was slow from the second floor. I did like that they had an honesty bar, would have used it if we were so inclined but we didn't. I would go back to this place once the construction is over, that's why I titled this review - almost there.
