This classic Italianate villa was really beautifully restored, very comfortable and with excellent amenities. The modern kitchen was very useful - apparently shared but we saw no one else! Great views from the room and huge wonderful balcony/terrace. Handy for the railway and buses. We loved it!

The room was super clean, really welcoming, but in particular there was such a lovely welcoming scent in the air as soon as we stepped in that made us feel so comfortable. The room decor was simple but very tastefully decorated. The owner was also very very efficient in providing us with lots of indications and help to reach to the property. It was very easy to reach by car. There’s a lay-by just opposite the property where a car can be parked but im not too sure if a parking permit is needed for a longer stay. We also walked to the property from the town center and google maps took us through the narrow hilly streets so so pretty to walk by.

Location, price, staff, room, external toilet/bathroom, cleanliness, Sri Lankan restaurant with delicious variety of Kottu rotti and other sri lankan delights just next door, nice chick bar downstairs playing nice music and deco, and finally the room upstairs at the 3rd floor was noise free. We were with our 5year old daughter and had no issues whatsoever.

We really enjoyed our stay in Locarno. The host was very helpful and very kind. The room had everything we needed - nice and comfortable bed with very smooth bed sheets, little terrace and even an AC for the hot summer evenings. Furthermore the high-tech shower was a cool feature 👍 only the distance from the city centre and the the train station is a little disadvantage, but there are many buses going regularly in all directions from a stop close by.

The room was big, airy, and clean. There was a kitchen, but we did not access it. The bathroom was convenient and clean. A very good night while having our last day in the Locarno Festival.

    Nanda and her husband are such lovely hosts! They gave us tips on what to do around and they were so kind and helpful. The room is very cozy and comfortable. You have for yourself a little garden with a table and two chairs, a little heaven! The location is between Locarno and Ascona. It's perfect if you wanna visit both. Highly recommend this!
