Morcote is a world on its own - and the appartment is in the middle of it all with beautiful views of the lake and the passing cyclists and cars. Accommodation in Morcote is hard to find but well worth the effort. Spend time meandering up to the enchanting cemetery, or through the quaint narrow alleyways, or join the locals for an espresso and cornetto. Early mornings are magic, before everyone else wakes up.

There is no elevator and our room was on the third floor. One of the staff brought our luggage upstairs however next day we had a train in the morning for Como. Staff outright said there will be no one in the morning until 9 or 10 am to help bring down luggage. There is no taxi available and she insisted we take the bus to train station which was about 9 km .
It was very frustrating as we are senior citizens.
After a lot of back and forth she agreed to arrange and she did. The taxi driver would bring luggage down and drop us to the train station. We were told to tip him for that gave him 20 dollars.
Taxi was over 100 dollars
If you are not young please do not stay at this hotel…. It’s very inconvenient.

Wir hatten ein wunderschönes, sauberes Dreibettzimmer.
Das Personal sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit. Die Lage vom Hotel perfekt, neben Schiffstation und Bushaltestelle.
Das einzig Negative, wir hatten ein Dachzimmer und es war so heiss, dass wir kaum schlafen konnten. Aber trotzdem, ich würde wieder dieses Hotel wählen...

Zimmer sauber und funktional. Lage mit schöner Seesicht , aber direkt an der Strasse. Zimmer ist sehr hellhörig nicht nur Geräusch von der der Strasse, sondern auch Zimmer nebenan und darüber liegende Geräusche werden wahrgenommen. Es fehlt eine Verdunklungsgardine. Wir haben uns mehr erwartet. Schade ;(

Séjour incroyable à faire en couple
je suis parti en couple à Morcote et je suis satisfait de l’hôtel et plus que satisfait du personnel. La chambre était située au 2 e étage avec vue sur le lac donc la vue etait incroyable et la chambre était très propre, la dame qui s’occupe du ménage est une crème . Nous sommes arrivés au alentours des 9 h du matin donc nous avions beaucoup d’avance mais nous avons été très bien accueilli et le temp est passer très vite avec la serveuse qui a su bien nous mettre à l’aise je recommande fortement cette destination et l’hôtel vous ne serez pas déçu. La destination est magnifique et très romantique, elle offre
