Hotels in Muralto, Locarno

One of the best experiences I have ever had. The location was great, just next to the train station. Having a lake-view room will make your trip unforgettable. The room was quiet and the staff were very kind. Located near the center and shopping street and adjacent to the lake.

Where to start, the room was spacious, comfortable bed and great facilities in the bathroom as well as the design was marvelous. Moreover, extremely friendly, service oriented and helpful people.

The bed was very comfy, shower great, breakfast, drinks and evening meal in the garden all excellent. Hosts really friendly. Lovely walk along the lake into Locarno and very convenient for the train station. Would highly recommend.

Beautiful building, we felt at home as soon as we walked in.

We loved our stay here. Our room had a large balcony, with a view down to the lake. Breakfast was very good - plenty of choice. Our host was easily contactable, and friendly. Rooms were clean and spacious. There is a bus stop right outside the property if you didn't want to walk up the short hill, but we mostly walked.

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

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.
