Albergo Carcani

Service was a little slow during breakfast.

Very comfortable bed, nice temperature in the room - the air conditioning is whisper quiet. Breakfast and staff were fantastic and the location is the best!

We loved the location, it was really clean and the staff very helpful. Sitting on the balcony overlooking Lago Maggiore was a dream.

On a personal taste I would of chosen some of the room furniture differently.

Location was perfect for the Ascona Jazz Festival. One of the stages was below our balcony! (Room 206).Same room last year. Rooms are modern and exceptionally clean. Restaurant is excellent with good variety for breakfast. Crosisant were among the best I've tasted. Staff filled all our requests promptly. Restaurant is also first class for dinner with tables outside facing lake. Our friends who had a room facing the rear were equally happy. Also note that all hotels give a fre3e transportation pass for the region. The system is excellent. There is no need for a car.

Only concern I had is that there was no mat in the shower to prevent slipping. Also the bath amenities - lotion etc were not automatically replaced as needed. Manager was apologetic when I mentioned this at check-out and assurred me that it would have been taken care of if I had brought it to their attention.
