Porto Ronco
Porto Ronco is well liked for its mountain views. If you'd like to do some sightseeing in the greater Ronco sopra Ascona area, you might plan a trip to Brissago Islands or Monte Verità.
Dorint Resort & Spa Locarno Riazzino
It's more a family hotel. Check in is good and friendly. Breakfast is good. The location is a little far from the center but it's near to a train station

Hotel Lago Maggiore
Hotel Belvedere Locarno
Lovely lake-facing room with a wonderful view. Comfortable bed. Spacious shower with lots of hot water. Friendly and helpful staff. Close to the convent and funicular. The walk back up from town could be a bit challenging for older or unfit people, but we enjoyed it.

Hapimag Resort Ascona
Our 3 kids enjoyed the pool and the restaurant was excellent. It was also very handy having the option to reserve your bakery order for pickup each morning along with take out pizzas. Very comfortable 3 nights and the town of Ascona was lovely

Small rustic dream in a quiet location with a view of the mountains
It was a beautiful little rustic cabin and nice setting! I didn’t think to check if there was a washer or dryer and was slightly disappointed that there was none. However, we really enjoyed our stay!
