Alles Prima
Pros:

Das Zimmer war aussergewöhnlich gross und sehr sauber

Cons:

Das Frühstück war okay aber auch nicht mehr. Und das Personal hätte etwas aufmerksamer sein können.

Pros:

The location in the center of the pedestrian lake-front esplanade is perfect, and the view from our balcony was absolutely special. The host is friendly and helpful, and the hotel possesses a special charm thanks to its history, comfort and location.

Cons:

Perhaps if a smaller menu breakfast were included in the price that would be great, but we opted for the room without breakfast in order to make our stay a bit more economical.

Ich komme sehr gerne wieder, aber das Zimmer muss wieder auf die andere Seite gehen.
Pros:

Es war wie schon viele male sehr schön .

Cons:

Leider war das Zimmer dieses Mal auf der anderen Seite. Unter dem Zimmer auf der anderen Seite war eine Bar und die haben bis morgens um 3 Uhr gefeiert in aller Lautstärke.
Da kann aber das Tamaro nichts dafür. Wir haben das gemeldet. Es wäre ein neuer Barbesitzer und sie wollen das so auch nicht mehr. Sie wollen der Sache nachgehen. Das schadet ja dem Tamaro.

Wir waren mit unserem zweitägigen Aufenthalt sehr zufrieden
Pros:

Die Kommunikation mit dem Personal und der Hotelleitung war ausgezeichnet. Das Frühstück für CHF 22 ( wenn ich mich recht erinnere) fanden wir etwas teuer. Der Preis ist vielleicht gerechtfertigt, wenn man alles allés Angebotene nimmt. Wir sind für Café und Croissants ins Restaurant nebenan gegangen.
Die Zufahrt mit dem Auto ist schwierig, denn, wenn man die Adresse Piazza Guiseppe Motta in den GPS eingibt, kommt man von der falschen Seite. Eine Erklärung auf der Webseite wäre gut gewesen.
Mein Hund hætte gern ein paar Grashalme in der Næhe gehabt - hat sich aber daran gewöhnt.

Cons:

Das Frühstück und die Zufahrt - siehe oben

we liked our hotel so much that we will come again.
Pros:

the location was excellent and the single rooms with a lake view were cozy, clean, and just what we needed to be comfortable.

Cons:

a coffee station would have been nice to have at the reception for the use of all guests. we did not buy our rooms with breakfast, but nevertheless, coffee in the morning would have been a nice touch. we had to go to the adjoining restaurant which was not so convenient.
