I wanted to take a moment to express my deepest appreciation for the outstanding experience I had during my recent stay at your hotel. I cannot emphasize enough how impressed I was with the exceptional level of service provided by your staff. The reception staff were absolutely phenomenal, going above and beyond to ensure that my check-in was seamless and stress-free. Their welcoming demeanour and willingness to assist with any and all inquiries was greatly appreciated, and truly set the tone for a wonderful stay. I must also commend the breakfast staff for their attentive service and delightful personalities. They consistently went out of their way to ensure that I was well taken care of, and their kind gestures did not go unnoticed. The rooms were nothing short of magnificent. The cleanliness was impeccable, and the view of Lake Locarno from my balcony was simply breathtaking. I felt as though I was living in a dream world throughout my entire stay, and I cannot thank your team enough for making it such a memorable experience. In conclusion, I would highly recommend Hotel La Palma Au Lac to anyone looking for a luxurious and memorable stay in Locarno. Thank you again for your exceptional hospitality, and I look forward to returning to your hotel in the near future. Warmest regards, Ahmad Al Ali

Just stay here
This hotel exudes a pleasant vibe. It looks nice, and it is nice. The people are nice, especially the reception. They upgraded us. It’s just one of those hotels that’s just perfectly nice. It has all the amenities that pre pandemic hotels used to have. Shampoos, conditioners, body cream oh la la. My wife would probably add that although there is a lot of counter space it was a little bit dark. I would like to add that I looked good in the mirror and the shower was refreshing and powerful. There is reasonably priced parking (14CHF) that’s easy to reach behind the building. Nice. Our room offered a stunning view and the free breakfast buffet was also…very very nice.
View from the superior room
Also the superior room view, nice

Would book again
Good location, nice view from the balcony. 4 minites from the train station by foot, a lot of restaurants nearby. Very nice experience with the reception (both check in and check out). Free bottle of water on departure was a nice touch. Aircon in the room, small fridge in the room, modern TV. Would book again, very good overall experience. We did not book breakfast buffet (due to the corona risk, but we are very conservative on this matter).

Good position on the lake front, easy walk to town. Parking a bit problematic - either on meters on the road opposite, to paying daily to park in the (limited) car park of the hotel, quite expensive but convenient.
