FAQs about hotels in Locarno








A Sunny Swiss Corner

Locarno is a gorgeous destination on the shores of Lake Maggiore, featuring the warmest climate in Switzerland. Situated at the foot of the Alps, this colourful Swiss city is home to the world-famous Locarno International Film Festival.

Considered to be designed by Leonardo da Vinci, the 13th-century Visconteo Castle houses an important archaeological museum. The historic pilgrimage church of Madonna del Sasso stands proud above the city, overlooking an inviting harbour.

Travellers can stroll around the narrow alleys of the old town, visit one of the antique shops, admire the old churches with Italian Baroque style or dine in one of the traditional restaurants near the main square of Piazza Grande. During the winter months they can also go for skiing or hiking on the Cardada Cimetta Mountain using the cable car.

Nature lovers will have the opportunity to swim in the blue waters of the Lago Maggiore, wander around the aromatic citrus trees and relax in the vineyards of the hills behind Locarno.

The Locarno railway station offers train connections to Zurich, Basel and Lucerne. Check the Booking.com deals and choose from a variety of hotels, apartments and hostels in Locarno.

    Very enjoyable.

    Very enjoyable. Visconteo Castle was interesting and the funicular to Madonna del Sasso was fun. Good pizza at the Ristorante Funicolare. Be sure to take the tram further up to Cardada. The views were well worth the trip!

    A small, yet beautiful city on the Swiss part of Lago Maggiore which, for those who are on a circuit, is a must-come-to in order to visit Sacro Monte Madonna del Sasso. A jewel with an amazing view over the city and the lake, accessible both by foot or by the funicular (lovely).

    Main reason to go their was the Indian Ticino Ride, Close to the lakeside and in the middle of the city we could celebrate until Midnight. Time was to short to discover all the beauty in and around. We took some short rides with our motorbikes having best weather. We will come again. Great place on earth.

    Awesome small town on the shore of Lago Maggiore.

    Awesome small town on the shore of Lago Maggiore. Clean, all buildings and streets are perfectly maintained. Very green, extremely picturesque - placed between Alps slopes and lake shores , with palms and lot of flowers growing around. Small but beautiful Old town, tasteful food. Just a small heaven on Earth, it still is expensive.

    Locarno was fantastic but the funicular operator put me off.

    Locarno was fantastic but the funicular operator put me off. He refused to speak and just pointed to tickets and signs when asked questions. Nobody was there and his vibe was we we're putting him out.

    The best part of the hotel was the staff. The receptionist was very friendly and helpful. She gave us many tips and a lot of advice on the things to do in Locarno and its surroundings, gave a few names of amazing restaurants (do listen to her advice, we were never disappointed!). The location of the hotel is perfect, very close to everything (station, city centre, restaurants). The rooms are really cute and clean and so are the bathrooms. Will definitely go back there for my next stay in Locarno without a doubt! I highly recommend it!

    We have had an extremely nice stay at Hotel Millennium. My Wife had her birthday during our stay and the hotel owners and staff really spoiled us with their attention. We were there for the Locarno Film Festival and the hotel is very well situated, the lake in front and the Locarno city center within a few minutes walk. The hotel is a very cute, cozy and beautiful little place. Exceptional to find such a hotel in such a perfect location. We will return for sure!

    I was on the 4th floor (last one), the view was amazing. And I liked the most the size of the room, it was really big compared to the usual hotel room, the room was clean, the furniture was a bit old but it was fine by me. The location was close to the lake, so we used to go by foot. I really had a nice stay, and if I'm back to Locarno I'll definitely stay here.

    Nice old villa in Locarno. Big huge ceilings. Very clean. Would be the perfect spot to stay for a few days. 10 minute walk down to the waterfront. The 2 room suit we rented had kitchen facilities. If I ever want to stay a few days in Locarno I will definitely look this place up again. Best shower ever. :)
