Tamaro In Ideal Location

Hotel Tamaro is situated ideally on the waterfront in the Ascona harbor. The accommodations are solid, if not spectacular. The front desk was extremely helpful and proactive in calling the evening of our arrival to ensure we were en route and waited late to check us in. For the price and a one night stay, it was very nice. Recommended.
