Excellent Hotel

Loved the hotel. Lakeview from our balcony was just relaxing. Staff was great; helped with auto parking arrangements and was informative. Our room was outstanding. Room size, as expected, was a little small but the way furniture was laid out—maximized every inch making it easy with luggage! The entire hotel was clean and updated. Highly recommend.

Nice room with incredible views. Staff is friendly and helpful at reception and in the restaurant. As others have said, not easy to find the hotel parking area, but very close to hotel.

10/10 Exceptional

I loved this hotel - it’s on the lake and near one of the main stages of the Ascona jazz festival, which I attended. The bedding was so soft and comfortable! Staff were very helpful and friendly. I recommend it and would return.
Virginia, 3-night trip

8/10 Very good

While this is waterfront Ascona with restaurants below and over by the water it was very quiet and comfortable with double glazed windows. Very good value.
James, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

I took s last minute trip to Ascona and had wonderful luck booking a room overlooking the lake. The room was comfortable, had a petite balcony with a table and two chairs, and the bath was modern. The staff were AMAZING and Friendly. The food was delightful. Bteakfast was a typical European buffet, and eggs and bacon could be made to request. I will definitely return to this lovely hotel.
