We had a wonderful stay! The design of the rooms was truly impressive — spacious, beautifully decorated, and with a bright, open feel thanks to the high ceilings. Everything was spotless and very well maintained. The breakfast was excellent, offering both quality and abundance with plenty of options to choose from. The spa area was another highlight — clean, relaxing, and with a pleasant fragrance throughout, especially in the Turkish sauna. Overall, a perfectly balanced mix of comfort, elegance, and attention to detail. Highly recommended!

The European/Swiss continental breakfast was delicious! Fresh bread, great coffee, and delicious Muesli and jams were just part of the morning meal. The staff was kind, polite, and very helpful with information about the area. The room was small/quaint, but very clean and well decorated. The hotel sits directly across from Lake Maggiore and the pier from where people can catch the boat to cruise the lake. Bus and train access is just a few minutes away.... a great location! I would definitely visit this hotel, again!

FAQs about hotels in Canton of Ticino

The Mountainous Jewel of Switzerland

The stunning, Italian-speaking region of Switzerland, Ticino is a real Alpine jewel with crystal water lakes, snow-covered mountain tops and lush greenery. With vibrant cities and a wide choice of activities, this is truly a region worth a visit.

Ticino is divided into 2 parts by the Monte Ceneri pass: the more mountainous, northern part, called Sopraceneri, and the southern Sotticeneri, concentrated around Lake Lugano. Both share a milder climate than the rest of the country, with higher temperatures and more sunshine hours.

All that and more can be enjoyed in the region's picturesque cities and towns: charming Ascona (also known as the Swiss Riviera), stunning Lugano with its great waterfront full of palm trees, boulevards and beaches, or scenic Locarno with a promenade along Lake Maggiore and a world-famous film festival.

Ticino has ideal conditions for a variety of outdoor activities, starting from hiking, cycling and mountain biking to swimming and boating. After a day outside you might choose to relax in one of the many cosy cafés and bars and enjoy a cup of delicious coffee or a glass of wine.

Whether you’re looking for wellness or just cheap hotels in Ticino, Booking.com offers a variety of over 530 accommodation types to choose from, from trendy hotels, to cosy apartments and friendly holiday homes.

Everything! Wonderful experience, the lush garden , the service was impeccable from start to finish. Highly personalised and warm, the staff made us feel not only welcomed but genuinely cared for. Dining at Ristorante Ecco with Chef Reto Brändl was another highlight. A true sensory journey. The spa was equally exceptional. The perfect getaway!

Lugano is a wonderful big town/small city.

Lugano is a wonderful big town/small city. Amazing views in all directions. So many amazing hikes available, so just soak up the energy of downtown. Hike along the lake to Gandria. You can bus (or funicular) up to Mt. Bre and hike in many directions from there. Ferry across the lake to Italy for lunch. So many possibilities!

The lake and the wonderful atmosphere in the old town. We didn’t spend long enough to properly explore more of the area but being able to step out of the hotel early morning and be surrounded by with so much natural beauty was uplifting vto say the least. We walked to the Madonna del Sasso and saw lLocarno and the lake from above. Would love to come back in summer to explore many hiking trails in the area. The unexpected start of Winterland was an added bonus.

Aiolo is probably beautiful in the snow and it has superb trails up behind in the countryside with Swiss cows wearing bells and mountain goats. Lovely old houses and probably once a delightful place. Sadly now dominated by a huge concrete factory and all the noise and dust that entails. Better to stay at the San Gottardo hotel probably, which is actually ON the pass itself, or above the pass.

Losone is the underrated, non-touristy part of Ascona and Locarno. It is, therefore, where many residents live because it is quiet, with great access to the Maggia river. The best tip is to walk along the river. It is very well connected by bus, so if you want an area that is safe but above all affordable, then this is the area to stay. Ascona is expensive for what is literally a 5 minute bus ride away. From Losone you can equally head to Locarno as well as Ascona, or indeed go into one of the many valleys.

Lugano is wonderful and a total paradise for cyclists! I come here all the time, I could not recommend more. Amazing routes around Lago di Lugano, Maggiore, Como… Delicious bakeries for tasty treats and refuelling whether Alpe di Neggia and Luino side or Menaggio Como side! Superb hotels and restaurants in Lugano to enjoy post-ride, also lovely chic (not sports) shopping! Absolutely recommend, but definitely prioritise Lugano Centro and lakeside, more expensive but so so worth it (Paradiso or inland horrible)

I think Locarno is going to be one of the new tourist hotspots in the next decade. This spot is beautiful. Amazing lakeside retreat on the alps - the views are not comparable to anything I have ever seen. I loved that it was less crowded than most lakeside European cities I have been to - and think this is a great stop if you are in the Como/Milan area. 10/10 recommend for some relaxation, rejuvenation, and a vacation you won't forget.
