Spent two nights here: upgraded to a junior suite, I think, and the facilities in the room and the hotel were first class (although I never did work out the air-conditioning). Loved the funky lights in the shower! The food was excellent - we had the "special menu of the day" for supper and it was delicious, beautifully presented. Sitting... More

Everything is fantastic about this hotel. The rooms, decor, expansive views and more importantly the people. Each staff member is so warm and welcoming. They ensure that it is a real pleasure to stay with them. Not only did they upgrade us to a Suite but to make up for the non-functioning funicular (very close-by to the hotel) the hotel... More

We chose the Hotel given the inviting pictures presented on the hotel's homepage, the small number of rooms and its location right next to Madonna del Sasso. Despite the many promises made, our expectations were more than exceeded as soon as we stepped into the hotel. Every word of promise is an understatement of what you actually will enjoy in... More

The staff provided a genuinely warm welcome from the minute they picked us up at the station with the hotel BMW. It is clear they all want to give you their very best. The room was spectacularly furnished and had the most incredible technical wizardry throughout. Wait 'til you see the unbelievable bathrooms! Wait 'til you see the views of... More

The staff and owners of this hotel truly want to give their guests the best. We were welcomed very warmly by the manager who seemed genuinely happy that we were there. The concierge brought us to our room, pointing out all of the features of the hotel and giving us a little tour of the room. We were upgraded from... More

What a fantastic hotel. Service was impeccable, gorgeous room, wonderful staff, wonderful hotel manager, great food, beautiful view, lovely & quiet...highly recommend it and would definitely go back. One of the nicest hotels we have ever stayed in....and we have travelled a lot. This is a true little gem.

Super quiet and close to Locarno: if somebody is looking for a sunny and relaxing place, but doesn't want renounce the city feeling with bars, shopping, etc...Villa Orselina is the right place. You have always your privacy because the Hotel has only around 30 rooms. The standard is really high: rooms are big, interior design is spectacular, gastronomy is exquisite,... More

We stayed for one night in hotel villa orselina and it was just great. The view from the room and from the dining room over lake locarno was just amazing. The hotel is about 300 meters up the hill. In the evening, we had a great traditionell italian dinner. The lamb was very delicious. Afterwards we walked down the hill... More

After the renewal we stayed here for the 3rd time. The rooms are so big and beautiful, the view incredible and the view is marvellous. Eevery mornign and nigth we ate at the terrace and the food too is superb. Thank you Orselina hotel for such a wonderful time. We will certainly come back!
