Things to do in Lake Maggiore

Because the Canton of Ticino is located almost at sea level (at an altitude of 192 metres), it is possible to enjoy a Mediterranean climate from springtime until the end of November. It also means that a large part of life at the "Palagiovani" is spent outdoors - for example at a "Grigliata" in the inner courtyard surrounded by the building's three wings. Naturally, nearly all the modern double and four-person rooms have a balcony. And it's also pleasant to get together on the veranda or under the pergola.
Not sure if this is on me or not but I could sleep at other hostels before in much bigger dorms. I had a bed in a 2 bed room this time but couldn't sleep for a second the first night and only very little the next one. I can't really say what's the cause, it was not the noise because after 10pm it was very quiet. Maybe the lack of an AC? Maybe the fact that the bed made noises every time you moved only a little bit? Or maybe it's just that the pillow and mattress were uncomfortable. Also, the the check in was a bit of a hassle because the employee didn't speak English very well. The breakfast is fine but nothing special and if you come too late (e.g. 30 minutes after it opens) the juices and breads are gone.

Situated on the edge of Locarno, Hotel Stella provides panoramic views of Lake Maggiore and comes with a restaurant serving Swiss and international cuisine. You can sunbathe on the hotel's terrace or refresh yourself in the on-site swimming pool. All of the modern rooms come with satellite TV, air conditioner, Free Wi-Fi, a seating area and a bathroom with a hairdryer, free toiletries, and a shower or a bathtub. Some rooms come with a terrace or a balcony and lake views. The family-run Stella hotel has a playground and a lounge with a TV. During summer, you can dine on the terrace. Bicycles can be borrowed on site and the hotel uses solar panels to heat water. Private parking is available in front of the hotel and against a surcharge. The city centre is an 8-minute drive away and Ascona can be reached within 12 minutes by car. Orselina is a great choice for travelers interested in Hiking, Relaxation and Food
Excellent location(the view is super), spacious rooms, bonus to the swimming pool and the garden that was very good for my children. The breakfast could be slightly improved. We recommend this place and we will come back again.

It was everything except what I expected! It was cosey, a little like feeling at home, but with good weather and a nice view. Breakfast with homemade jams, choice of Swiss cheeses, sit in- or outside terraces you could choose. The owner, Dea, was a nice lady and helpful as you mom at home.

The EasyRooms dell’Angelo, with its original foundation walls dating from 18th Century, is directly beside the Hotel dell’Angelo and right at the Piazza Grande. The train station, the lakefront and the shops are nearby. 14 rooms have shared bathroom with other rooms and 2 rooms dispose of private bathroom. Guests of EasyRooms may also use all the facilities of the Hotel dell’Angelo. The Cafe-Bar and the Restaurant-Pizzeria with the sunny terrace on the Piazza Grande are open daily and offers a varied choice of traditional dishes and crispy pizzas from the wood-burning oven. Moreover, there are also two panoramic terraces, a parking space for bicycles and discounted parking tickets at the nearby car park.
Poor location if you're a family looking for a good night sleep and you're traveling during the weekend. There was a lot of noise coming from bars down on the street until 2:30 AM. The room was okay, but the breakfast was "the bare minimum", and the croissants were old and dry. The WiFi did not work.

Quite a good location, around 600 meters from Train station. The room was clean as well as the bathroom but the toilet are so very small. The duvet is super comfortable with a thick down. The owner is really generous. After all it's worth the money.

Riposo is the right choice for all those who are looking for a low-budget accommodation in hostel or camping near the cities of Ascona and Locarno. It offers free WiFi access and free parking in front of the premises. Guests can relax on the terrace with views to the garden, ideal for students, groups and families. On request the whole house can be booked for groups of at least 20 people. Riposo is a 10-minute bus ride away from the centre of Locarno / Ascona and is easily reachable from cycling path. The "Caserma" bus stop is within 300 metres. Bus line 7 offers direct connections to the Locarno Train Station.
We spent just one night in a tippie and the experience was very fine. The kids really loved it, you need to have your own sleeping bags. Even if it is close to the road, the place is very quite, bathrooms were clean. The staff was ok.

Sleepless nights guaranteed due to the bar downstairs playing loud music and the noisy drunken crowd sticking to the terrasse way after closing time. Same situation during 4 nights, looks like it’s the norm ! To be avoided
