3 out of 5

Hotel in Locarno, Switzerland

Pros: Staff was very friendly and the location was nice and the breakfast was good.
Cons: The A/C could be improved.
Location: Was in a very nice shopping area. Also by the lake.
Decent hotel in the city of Locarno. Very nice town. However, the parking was inconvenient as it being located off-site in a public city parking garage. It also cost 27 CHF per day on top of the daily room rate. The room was very nice but the A/C did not cool the room sufficiently. The internal temperate stayed about 80 degrees Fahrenheit at all times. The hallway temperature was easily over 90 degrees Fahrenheit. So, if you like it cool not very desirable.
