Very nice boutique hotel, with very welcoming people. Great food at the hotel restaurant with an astonishing view right at the lake. They offer bicycles for free, only 20min ride from Locarno, along the lake, very nice. Breakfast of high quality food, presented in a very nice way, not too much on the buffet plates, but really high quality food. We will definitely come back as soon as possible.

I travel frequently but have never been inspired to write a review. This trip was my first fully relaxed vacation. The hotel is gorgeous, overlooking a beautiful lake and line of wonderful snow capped mountains. The staff is very friendly and accommodating-all of them! The restaurant has very good food with plenty of comfortable outdoor seating. The rooms are quant and comfortable with a home-like feel. I will be back!

This boutique hotel is a gem located just outside Locarno. Lobby, restaurant and rooms are tidy but the latter are quite small. Service is great, in particular from the reception team. The menu choice of the restaurant is adequate and view is spectacular. Breakfast offered a decent selection, but some items are on demand only. Another positive note is that dogs are permitted and received with pleasure. On a next occasion I will definitely return to Giardino Lago.

We were looking for something in the area that would be smaller and have a similar feel to Como. We loved it! This hotel is small and very well appointed. The attention to detail and service was top notch. The staff even remembered it was my birthday and several members wished me happy birthday throughout the day. The small attention to detail really made a difference. We will be back with our kids. Beautiful lake and setting. Lots of amenities like SUP and bikes, provided by the hotel at no cost.

Strongly recommend this propery, Food was exceptional at the restaurant and breakfasts on the patio were a delight and delicious.

Lovely property. Fantastic location right on the lake a short walk into Minusio. Staff in the restaurant could be warmer and friendlier and price/ quality is on high side both in restaurant and generally, especially for non lake view rooms. Breakfast staff need to replenish items when these run out. The best aspect of hotel is its location right in front of lake with a feeling of privacy and yet its proximity to Locarno.

Beautiful location overlooking the lake. Lovely property. Horrible service with unfriendly staff. The majority seem unhappy doing their job and tend to be rude. From check-in, staying, dining, and checking out, we did not feel any warmth or good service from most of the staff. English level is poor; the best is to communicate in German or Italian. Didn't feel welcome as international visitors. For sure, not worth the money nor coming back.
