This was the perfect place to stay while hiking in Valle maggia. It suits us perfectly as we could self cater and eat our own food at the outdoor dining area in the garden. The staff are always very helpful and the rooms very clean and tidy. We appreciated that this accommodation enabled us to get the Ticino Ticket which we used extensively for buses and trains in Ticino.
Situated in Contra and with Piazza Grande Locarno reachable within 5.9 km, Casa San Bernardo features a terrace, non-smoking rooms, free WiFi and a restaurant.

Friendly staff, good breakfast. The restaurant is good, very tasty food. It has a hostel vibe but for the price, it's great.
Better to have a car... not central.
Very spacious showers.
The view from the terrace is fantastic!

Very helpful staff at the reception. I arrived late and was given very good recommendation of nearby dinner options. Hostel is also at a convenient location next to bus stop, within walking distance to the Central Area.

It's a very peacefull and beautiful place. I really enjoyed my stay.
The room was confortable, the kitchen had everything I needed to make breakfast and cook dinner. Everything was super clean.
There's a lot of information available about all the things that can be done closeby.
Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.
Very clean and lots of room, air conditioning worked fantastic and the bathroom was big and closed off from the room. It also had a balcony. Everything seemed new and in great condition. Elevator available and bar at the entrance. Beds very comfy although I'm sad about the single beds put together instead of one big doublebed. Mind the gap haha. Mini fridge and safe. Plenty of space for wardrobe and luggage.
Great location for visiting both the town and the lake. Good breakfast and also the restaurant (Vivo) in the same building (but not linked to the hotel) was fantastic!
We thoroughly enjoyed our 2 night stay. Comfortable bed, spotlessly clean, quiet, & cheap parking. Good fast bus service into the city. The young gentleman who welcomed us was extremely friendly & efficient making our stay very pleasant.
The hotel is in a great location, making it easy to get around. It is very near the lake, concerts, and all venues in the city center. The breakfast is really good, offering a wide variety of options with a nice view of the lake. The staff is very friendly and helpful. You can get a free local travel ticket at the reception, which allows you to travel around the city and the Locarno area.
We liked our beautiful room and the great location. The introduction before the check-in time was clear and fast. The room was clean and tastefully furnished. We didn't mind the noise on the street.
Great location, and one of the few "budget" options in this area. There were many people checking in at the same time, but they were working really fast and making sure everyone gets their room as quick as possible. Great working team.
Beautiful, modern hotel with thoughtful design throughout. The rooms are small but the details in the design are top notch . Interior design stunning.
Great location , two minutes to train station or lake side .
Breakfast and staff also fabulous.
Chic & stylish only wish we had stayed longer and best hotel we stayed in all trip, yet one of the cheaper ones!
