The location was great. A bit of a walk uphill from Locarno, but the bus ran frequently and the trips were free with the Ticino ticket. The owners were simply amazing--super attentive and helpful and just the nicest people. We stayed on the top floor, with an amazing view. Just be aware the top floor has a shared toilet and shower between 5 rooms. Each room still has sinks however. It was never an issue, and the facilities were spotless. The provided breakfast and coffee were fantastic. Travel costs in Switzerland can be expensive, so this perk was very appreciated. I would stay here again and recommend it to anyone else visiting this absolutely stunning city.

Very helpful staff, we have recommended the hotel to our daughter. Good location, & bus stop out the front. A buffer breakfast was included, & it offered a nice variety of options.

Very nice staff nice rooms affordable prices

This truly was one of the best hotels we’ve ever stayed at. The hospitality, the room, the breakfast, bus passes, the beauty, everything was perfect and would definitely recommend and return.

Very Italy, in Switzerland good location at a fair price, 10 min walk to lake.

Clean, quiet with air conditioning. Room a bit small with no chair, alarm clock or ironing board.

Great hotel for us, clean, nice and decent breakfast. Welcome letter written in german so pls do it in english too. Thnx

Beautiful old building. Renovated with nice finishes. Room was very small but clean. Had AC which was a big plus

Excellent Service

It was a brief stop over on my drive to Italy. The hotel is very quaint. I liked the location.

Good location. Nice but small room in the roofspace (cheapest room) with shared toilet and shower. Good breakfast.

We stayed at Hotel Alexandra for 1 night before going day hiking in Ticino. The staff was friendly and helpful and room sparkling clean. BUT the central air conditioning system has units in each room giving off a a loud ERRRHHH sound of an electric motor starting every 2 minutes. It was impossible to sleep, and there are no staff in the hotel overnight. I barely slept 3 hours due to this torturous noise. The staff are aware, and when I complained the next morning they were sympathetic, but said if the AC is off guests will complain of the heat. Apparently no plans to repair it. suggest only staying there in the winter.

A very comfortable, Quiet, Clean, friendly and accomodating Hotel on a Bus route and at an affordable price considering its location Situated between Tenero and Locarno and only 5 mins drive from the fabulous town of Ascona. Breakfast buffet was very basic and the only negetive comment that we have.

Hotel Alexandra was a 15 minute or so walk uphill from the train station. Third floor room had some low beams to duck under, and shower and toilet facilities were shared. Room was very clean and we had a view of lake from our window. Breakfast was very nice, and well worth it with the high price of restaurants in Switzerland. We left an item in the room and they mailed it to us, which was really nice of them. Enjoyed our stay here.

Location - 1500 meters walk from Piazza Grande. Covered parking adjacent to the hotel. Air-conditioned room. The room was in the attic, no bathroom and shower included. Toilet and shower were shared. Extra charge room with bathroom and shower included - 40%!! There is no elevator. Dining room with a good breakfast.

Great place to stay just a few minutes to by foot from the Locarno train station. I suggest if arriving by train use the bus for transfer, will stop right in front of the Hotel. (I think it was # 1, get off at stazione sociale or just ask the bus driver, runs every 15 min.) If you are without luggage it's an easy stroll to Locarno, old part of town or lake promenade. The Hotel is very clean ( recently renovated ), staff extremly friendly ask for ideas on what to do. Rooms comfortable not very big for north american standards but was no issue for me. Breakfast simple but all you really need to get going in the morning .(unless you need your eggs & bacon...) Must see : Madonna del Sasso perched on a rock above Locarno , easy to get by funiculare or by foot. (steep climb but well worth the effort) The church is under renovation but still open to visit , amazing frescoes inside the church!

Very good standard for being a budget hotel. We stayed at the top floor in one of the rooms with shared bathroom. Everything were very clean. Nice breakfast buffé and the most important, friendly and helpful staff. Location is good, just 5-10 minutes walk to the train station, the lake and the city. Will recommend this hotel to all my friends who will go to Locarno.

Empfang OK, Zimmer, Frühstück und Preis sind gut und danke, dass ich nach dem Check-Out den Parkplatz noch bis 14h benützen durfte.

Frühstück war hochwertig und vielseitig,

Pulito e in ordine, ottimo il parcheggio in garage, personale gentile
