Nice and quiet place to stay and explore. The location is best to view the beautiful town and lake below. Lots of hiking trails besides the long winding road to and fro Ascona. WiFi is not readily available and tugging suitcase over the cobblestone is a challenge. Breakfast is great.

Nice hotel with gorgeous view on Lago Maggiore

very nice hotel, a car is highly recommended as the hotel is up a steep hill, gorgeous view on Lago Maggiore, breakfast is served on a beautiful terrace, nice breakfast buffet, the lake area (Switzerland and Italy) can be easily explored when staying at the hotel, Locarno is within walking distance, some might prefer a taxi for returning to the hotel

Great Lake Maggiore visit

Fantastic room with views and elevation - quite warm in July 15-17 2015 to 35C without aircon and mosquitoes makes nights very warm- kept windows open and mosquitoes etc - less sleep. Great breakfast on top terrace. Admin staff and all just lovely. Will return.

Not good!

This is the first time I have used hotels.com and the write-up was not representative of the hotel. This is a three star hotel and the rooms I was first given were like a youth hostel room, one did not even have a window to look out of. I was moved to a better room after complaining and showing the staff the photographs on the hotels.com website. I still did not get a room as per the pictures.

Komfortabler Kurzurlaub

Auch beim späteren eintreffen um 21.30 Uhr, wurden wir zuvorkommend begrüsst und der Zimmerschlüssel ausgehändigt. Das Zimmer war im Bauhaus, wir hatten einen Hund dabei. Das Zimmer war geheizt und sehr sauber, die Betten komfortabel, die Matratze etwas weich aber nicht durchgelegen. Die Bettdecke gibt sehr warm, toll für Menschen die schnell kalt haben. Die Fenster können mit einem Rolladen verdunkelt werden. Das Badezimmer ist mit Duschgel und Shampoo ausgestattet. Der Frühstückstaum ist ab 7.30 Uhr offen, das Servicepersonal sehr zuvorkommend und freundlich. Das Buffet ist vielfältig und der Kaffee, Cappuccino oder Latte Macchiato ist von guter Qualität. Alles in allem war es ein toller Aufenthalt, sehr zu empfehlen.

The gentleman at the reception as well as the lady at breakfast were so friendly. It was a really special place, with Bauhaus architecture and an interesting history. Even if it took me a lot of effort to hike up to the hotel from the lake, it was totally worth it!

Eine Wohlfühloase

ich hatte bereits vor einem Jahr alleine im Monte Verità übernachtet und dieses Jahr mit der ganzen Familie. Mir gefällt der Ort, die Gebäude und die Zimmer im Bauhaus mit den grossen Balkonen und der tollen Aussicht. Dazu kommt die Ruhe. Ich habe jede Nacht bestens geschlafen

Tainted by disappointing service

Unfortunately, this special place appears to be losing its soul. Compared with our last stay, the breakfast was very basic and the service only half-hearted. Worst of all, upon check-out the receptionist deliberately and pejoratively called me "Natasha", which felt as treating me with contempt as a guest. This was very embarassing and unprofessional, and discourages me from visiting this hotel ever again.

Excellent stay, we may come back

Very nice location. You feel like in a little resort. The rooms looks like an hospital room. Only white with convenience bed. But everything was clean. We have an amazing view on the lake from the balcony.

Hotel in schöner Anlage an bester Lage

grosses Zimmer mit ebenso grossem Balkon. gutes Frühstück auf attraktiver Terrasse mit Seesicht. Schöne Parkanlagen. Ich kann alles empfehlen. Einziger Schwachpunkt ist der fehlende ÖV-Anschluss nachts, wenn jemand mit Gepäck anreist ist. Sonst ist man zu Fuss von Ascona in 20 Minuten oben

Gut, aber nur mit Auto und nicht im Sommer

Wenn das Wetter mitgespielt hätte wäre es super. Empfang an der Rezeption war freundlich, bei der Abreise eher mässig. Das Hotel hat eine sehr schöne Parkanlage, die zu Spaziergänge einladet. Das Zimmer war geräumig mit schönem Blick auf den See. Allerdings für heutigen Standard veraltet. Die Fenster sind einfach verglast und der Schliessmechanismus gleicht dem eines Kleiderschranks. Der Heizkörper besitzt ein einfaches Ventil und für die warme Saison fehlt eine Klimaanlage. Wer einen Fernseher benötigt muss den TV-Raum im 1. Stock aufsuchen. Das Frühstück war fein und reichhaltig. Der Preis fürs Restaurant ist eher im höheren Preissegment. ÖV ist, zumindest in der Zeit Anfang Mai, schlecht. Hier empfiehlt sich die Anreise mit dem Auto.
