Der Aufenthalt war super, wir würden jederzeit wieder kommen.
Pros:

Tolle Lage, freundliches Personal, sehr sauber. Wir hatten ein grosses (Familien-)Zimmer. Gratis Minibar.

Cons:

Leider stand auf der Homepage, dass der Pool erst ab Juni geöffnet sei, deshalb hatten wir die Badesachen nicht eingepackt. Der Pool war aber schon geöffnet.

Gutes Hotel mit müffelden Teppichböden
Pros:

Zimmer 315: gross mit herrlichem Ausblick auf den Monte Bre und See
Bademantel und Hausschuhe inbegriffen
Nähe Bushaltestelle und Schiffsanlegestelle
Mittelgrosser Pool
Leckeres Frühstück
Ticinocard für 2 Tage inbegriffen
Freundliche Reception
Zimmer sauber gereinigt.
Minibar mit versch. alkoholfreien Getränken war gratis.

Cons:

Das ganze Hotel hat Teppichböden, welche unangenehm alt rochen.
Die Klimaanlage im Zimmer mussten wir abstellen da sie den Müffelgestank noch verstärkte.
Die Liegen am Pool sind für eine mittelgroße Person von 1.80 zu kurz.

Sehr angenehmer Aufenthalt in guter Lage – wir würden das Hotel jederzeit weiterempfehlen.
Pros:

Sehr freundliches und hilfsbereites Personal. Das Hotel war sauber, ruhig und gut gelegen. Das Frühstück war abwechslungsreich und lecker, und der Poolbereich war sehr angenehm zum Entspannen. Unser Zimmer war komfortabel und wir haben uns insgesamt sehr wohlgefühlt.

Cons:

Das Hotel ist insgesamt etwas in die Jahre gekommen und an einigen Stellen wäre eine Modernisierung sinnvoll. Dennoch war alles sauber und gepflegt, sodass wir uns wohlgefühlt haben.
