Hotel dell'Angelo, hotel in Locarno

The Dell'Angelo Hotel is centrally located at Piazza Grande in the center of Locarno. It is just steps from the train station, shops and Lago Maggiore.

The hotel is located at the end of the central place of the city, very convenient. The staff was very nice, esp. when I realized that I've got a room with a detached bathroom (I was supposed to get out of my room and pass a small hall to get in my - truth is - private bathroom). When I told the lady at the reception that they should make it clear on booking.com that the bathroom is detached, she first let me know that it is their only room with this feature, but then she offered me a 'regular' room at no extra charge. By the way, I've got - before arrival - a 10% discount for eating in their restaurant. Didn't use it, but the place was full, so I guess they have a very good cook.
