Hotel Garni Muralto, hotel in Locarno

This beautiful, renovated and modern hotel is located in the town centre, close to Locarno’s old town with the famous Piazza Grande and Lake Maggiore with its lakeside promenade.

Because of its name "Garni", I did expect a mediocre facility, but was really pleasantly surprised by this full-service facility. Excellent location (even on foot) easily reached by car or public transport; with availability of parking (CHF 11/day) in the garage for about 10 cars and another 5 or so outside; The receptions staff is incredibly professional, yet very friendly and helpful. The breakfast-room is large enough to accommodate the guests at sit-down tables....there is a great selection of cold-cuts, cheeses, bread, eggs, cereal, juices, and coffees. The facility is equipped with an efficient, noiseless elevator. The rooms are well equipped, very clean, comfortable bed.....all told a very pleasant stay....I shall return

    We were in Locarno for 1.5 days.

    We were in Locarno for 1.5 days. There were many places of interest to visit and we had to rush a bit. Perhaps another 48 hours would have made the visit even more relaxing. The lake on a sunny day is fantastic as is the trip to Cimetta on the cable car, and the chair lift. There is a vast number restaurants with a wide range of menus It is an easy city to get around. Hotels provide free public transport passes for the duration of your stay. It is also next door to Ascona, which offers a different holiday experience, similar to small Italian lake side villages. Here too there is a wide choice of Restaurants particularly those overlooking the lake. Its a short bus ride from Locarno to Ascona. Don't be just focused on Locarno.

    The property is a an abandoned hotel, which structure is ri-organized to be a new hotel. The location and the position are nice, but the building was not renovate at all, not even a little bit (so there are abandoned space everywhere) and the fact that there is literally no one but clients didn’t make me feel so comfortable and protected during the night. Literally anyone can enter there. The breakfast in the morning was ok, there were 3 people from the staff. The cleaning is just sufficient, but it could have been cleaner.

    Everything was wonderful! the hosts, the staff are very friendly, considerate and always ready to help :-)) The hotel itself is very nice and cosy, and it is located in a quiet area (which is important, especially in the evening). It takes only 7-8 minutes to walk to the railway station and the lake! Breakfast is really excellent, there is a selection of different kinds of food for any taste, I think :-) The wifi is a bit slow but it's not a problem.

    Just loved the light, spacious 50 m2 apartment (an upgrade at no extra costs) with a great 180 degree view on both the lake 'Lago Maggiore' as well as as the mountains. There was an overall very pleasant vibe in the hotel and staff was super friendly. Breakfast was good too and the breakfast room (=restaurant) had a great ambiance thanks to the glass ceiling and half-circle shape. Location was pretty unbeatable, like an island in the center of Locarno.
