Falconeria Locarno

Our 3 kids enjoyed the pool and the restaurant was excellent. It was also very handy having the option to reserve your bakery order for pickup each morning along with take out pizzas. Very comfortable 3 nights and the town of Ascona was lovely

It is always a very pleasant experience to stay here. The staff are all very friendly and helpful. The hotel is quiet, calm and has an attractive interior with a large central marble staircase. My room had a lovely lake view from a small balcony, this was a huge bonus. The rooms were refurbished recently and now have air conditioning which guests can control (I prefer to sleep with it turned off, but it is welcome on some of the more extreme hot days). The location of the hotel is ideal, with transport connections (trains, buses and boats on the lake) just minutes away. Breakfast is also a very pleasant experience, with a good range of buffet options and a balcony area for eating outside if desired. I also appreciated that the coffee machines in the breakfast area are available all day; sometimes it was nice to take a tea or coffee to the room on returning from an excursion. In summary - a very good, uncomplicated hotel with friendly staff in an excellent location.
