Seven friends stayed in piazza for 3nights. The hotel is directly opposite the ferry port which allows you travel by lake to various towns/islands on lake maggiore. Staff were helpful and friendly. Hotels are expensive and you pay for your ideal location. Food is average as is breakfast. Rooms are clean but tired and balconies small, with excellent views. Remind... More

We were looking for a nice place to stay in Ascona and found this hotel on the internet. The hotel is locatod on the lake promenade and every room as a wonderfull view to the lake. The rooms are small but comfortable and clean. The receptionist is very helpfull and friendly. Breakfast is excellent and the hotel resturant is also... More

Very friendly, helpful staff. Clean room with comfortable bed and superb view over the lake and mountains. Having stayed in 4 and 5 star hotels around the world, it seems a tad harsh that this hotel has only 2. We ate in the hotel and were given a 10% discount off the bill. Ascona is gorgeous and you won't find... More

Although we were not given the requested room, we accepted the upgrade and enjoyed a good night's sleep in a clean room but without a lake view. Front Office and restaurant staff were helpful and friendly at all times which made for an enjoyable (although only 1 night) stay. We recommend this accommodation and will stay here again on our...

We would highly recommend this hotel. Excellent value for money and wonderful staff. We had a room on the courtyard so quiet and comfortable. The location couldn't be better and the food is also good.

I stayed at the "Albergo Piazza au Lac" for 7 nights and loved it very much. I had a basic, but clean, singleroom with balcony and excellent view on the lake. The main building has a great location; right on lakeside and pedestrian area. There are also rooms at "Casa delle Olive" (in the pedestrian area behind the Albergo; no... More

I stayed at the Piazza Au Lac for 5 nights, and they gave me a room at the Olive, which is behind the hotel proper but is quieter (I had stayed there a year ago, and the room facing the lake was incredibly noisy in the morning). Room is small, quiet and perfectly serviceable. Staff were all very nice and... More

Right on the pedestrian street so very handy. The bed room was tiny, there would have been no space for 2 big suitcases but lucky we had small ones and managed to put them on the chairs. Amazing view from the balcony. Breakfast was very nice. Staff were very helpful.If you intent on arriving and have special requests make sure... More

Rooms are small and basic but clean. It can be noisy as restaurant is right below the hotel and in the early morning, if window is open, you will hear all the noises of deliveries, earlier travellers with suitcase on pebbled paths, etc, hence hard to sleep in. Parking is not on site and requires extra payment, though wifi is... More
