Hotels in Muralto, Locarno

Location, view from the room, service, very modern room/structure/everything, breakfast

Very nicely decorated rooms, super friendly staff & great location close to city-centre. All in all a jewel in Locarno - will for sure come again!

The hotel staff were welcoming, considerate and attentive. They are knowledgeable in regards to the area and the relevant leisure activities including walks/hikes. The entire premises was clean – the actual hotel room stayed in was cleaned very well, daily. Although I’m no art expert, it’s worth stating the hotel had a tasteful theme, (I believe 1950’s art deco), that was applied very well. The breakfast was exceptional – a proper continental spread which included home-made jams. In regards to the foods I consumed (bakery, cereal and coffee), these were all very good quality.

This was a very nice place to stay - comfortable bed, lovely breakfast & perfectly situated near the town, lake & train station. The hosts could not have been more helpful too.

Beautiful villa and surrounding gardens. The authentic decor and furniture added to the charm of this property. The views into the gardens were lovely.

Andrea was such a fantastic and welcoming host! So kind and friendly, he truly made the one night we spent there memorable! The check in and check out process was very easy and the breakfast was just perfect on the outside terrace in the sun! He upgraded us to a beautiful room facing the lake. The common areas are so well thought out and the boutique hotel has a very relaxed vibe, which we loved! Highly recommend this place for singles, couples or families!

The location is perfect for film festival goers—close to the train station and Piazza Grande. The pool is very nice, and everything is absolutely wonderful. We would love to come back!

What a great stay, in the middle of an old residential area of Muralto with stately old villas and hotels, and surrounded by palm trees. The apartment is located in a clean and spacious apartment building, with an elevator. You can park your car for free in the garage under the building. In Dutch we call this building a gallery flat (an apartment house where the front door opens onto an outside walkway). This outside walkway overlooks a large (overgrown) garden of a villa with palm trees and a stone gazebo. That is already a feast for the eyes. The apartment is the last on the corridor. What is not (yet) shown in the photos is that behind the front door there is a large square hall with mirrors, making the apartment very spacious. You can see immediately that everything is spotlessly clean! Everything is available in the kitchen, even a large freezer. Due to the special construction of the building, the apartment has 2 spacious triangular balconies, which are connected to each other. This is virtually impossible to capture on photo. The view from those balconies is phenomenal (not the lake, but on the city and surrounding mountains) and is located on a one-way street with palm trees. The apartment has large, thick towels, lots of mirrors, 3 fans with high stand, almost all windows have mosquito screens, 2 comfortable chairs with thick cushions on one balcony and a dining table with 4 chairs (and cushions) on the other balcony. We only missed outside light on the balconies. Contact with host Daniel went quickly and check-in is done by friendly Tino who can be reached via Whatsapp. In 10 minutes (downhill) you can reach the boulevard of Lake Maggiore and in 15 to 20 minutes (downhill) in the center of Locarno. But along the way you will come across so many photogenic houses, restaurants, shops and painted buildings that it will probably take you longer. Recommended is a visit to the Verzasca Valley with the beautiful Ponte dei Salti (18 km).

It’s within walking distance to the railway station, the ferry terminal and also a self serve laundromat. Breakfast was plentiful and all the staff were friendly and made our stay more enjoyable.
