"It's a good place for short stay. Next to train station and very close of lake. It would be a great place to stay, if they can add option to provide morning breakfast!"

"Gut gelegene Unterkunft für Aktivurlaub in der Umgebung. Erstaunlich ruhig und nahe zum Fluss. Küche leider nicht sehr gut ausgerüstet und fehlender Liegestuhl auf dem Balkon."

"Very happy with Icon. Entrance and access were convenient and easy, location very good, with bus stops within a 2-3 minute walk, the Lido/Cassarate area only 12-15 minute walk, and downtown only a 20-minute or so walk. The building was modern, and accommodation was very nice. Murphy bed very comfy, good kitchen and a very good bathroom with a rain showerhead. Nothing but nice things to say...we really loved it! "

"Sehr ruhige Lage und angenehme Wohnung. Wir reisten als Familie (5 Erwachsene); Zentrum, Strand und Bahnhof sind bequem zu Fuss erreichbar. Die Wohnung war sehr sauber, modern und zweckmässig eingerichtet.
Einziger kleiner Hinweis: Im kleinen Badezimmer war zeitweise ein unangenehmer Geruch (vermutlich Abfluss). Bei geschlossener Tür war dies jedoch kein Thema.
Insgesamt haben wir uns sehr wohl gefühlt und können die Unterkunft klar weiterempfehlen und würden jederzeit wieder kommen."

"This was one of the best rentals I have ever stayed in in my life- and I have travelled a lot! Often when you rent a place, upon arrival you discover that the photos were taken at a misleading angle, or that something about the place is not really as nice as it was spelled out to be. The opposite of that is the case with this place! It was spacious, comfortable, the view truly is breathtaking and it was spotlessly clean. Also, the owner is so nice and the communication was easy and quick,...

"The apartment was clean and had all the necessary cooking / dining equipment. The check in process was a bit convoluted with entry codes only being sent a few days before we arrived. This was unnerving as we were already in transit, but ok in the end. Location was good being 12 minutes walk from the station. Also an easy walk down into town, but use the funicular when coming back up.There's a local restaurant Schnitzy which does reasonable meals if you don't want to walk into town (or it's...

"Simple appartment in a block of flats. The kitchen is small and poorly equipped, given the size of the flat. Be aware that it has no air-conditioning. (We noticed, because it was >33°C outside.) Big rooms, we slept well. No dedicated parking available, so we had to look elsewhere for public parking, which was no big deal, though.
Communication with the agency was a disaster. After I reserved the object, I was directed to their web page via email to provied more data and pay the tax. However, the...

"Great stay everything clean pool was excellent location great staff great rooms with view amazing breakfast very very nice. Pool showers nice touch for checkout day if you prefer to hang around the pool for part of the day, which we did.
Drain in shower needed attention.
All in all the VALUE for this hotel compared to other lakefront hotels, is unmatched in my opinion."
"The staff at this hotel were excellent. Having two pools was a bonus as you could use the indoor pool when the outdoor pool was busy. The absence of a bar was a slight disappointment and the rooms were small even by European norms. Dated TVs meant no connectivity of maps.... but who goes on holiday to watch TV? Breakfast was very good too. The location (approx. 200m from Paradiso train station) made things very easy Tip: the number 2 bus will take you from the hotel (stop next to the supermarket) up the hill to the station, else it is a steep trek with luggage. The hotel is also alongside the funicular for Monte San Salvatore
Watching the sunset from 900m+ is awesome (and you can buy a beer up there too!)
And as with nearly every other hotel in the area, you get a Ticino Ticket that gives you free public transport (except for the ferries) in the Ticino region.
We had such a great time we stayed an extra night.
Our thanks to the staff at Hotel Admiral."
