About this property
Alta vista, Locarno, Switzerland
Experience the best of Locarno from this mountain-view holiday studio for 3 guests!
Nestled just a few steps from the famous Piazza Grande of Locarno, this romantic studio apartment provides you with the perfect base to enjoy everything possible that this charming city has to offer. From the funicular to the historic Madonna del Sasso to Locarno Falconry and Lido di Locarno, all attractions of this lakeside town are within a quick few steps from the holiday apartment.
The cosy fifth-floor retreat enjoys lift access and some of the most attractive panoramic views of Locarno. It has a light-filled sleeping area with big windows that allow maximum contact with nature and central heating to enjoy a holiday any time of the year. A dining set-up along with a fully-equipped kitchen makes a self-catered stay carefree here.
Essential kitchen utilities include an oven, Mokka coffee machine, induction hob, toaster, and fridge with freezer.
A Wifi mobile device can be provided for a fee.

Additional
• No microwave available • Ironing Facilities • Car not necessary • Wardrobe • Not suitable for children and elderly people • Pets are not allowed - TV - Paid public parking
Location
The holiday apartment enjoys one of the most enviable positions in Locarno, from where you can explore everything on foot. Just a stone’s throw away are located several restaurants, the Locarno Casino and a supermarket.
Within a 5-minutes walk is Locarno’s Lungalago with a lakeside promenade for romantic evening strolls, Piazza Grande with its vibrant shops, restaurants and gelaterias, the beautiful Fontana Pedrazzini and even the funicular to the iconic Madonna del Sasso. For our active guests, the Lido di Locarno, a golf course and the famous Locarno Falconry are a 15-20 minutes walk away. Meanwhile, for those who want to enjoy picnics and relax on summer afternoons by the lake, Giardini Jean Arp is 10-minutes on foot from here. Art enthusiasts are also in for a delight as an Art Museum is also about the same distance.
The nearest airport is Lugano Airport (a 48-minutes drive) and the closest international airport is Milan Malpensa, about a 1-hour and 45-minute drive from this vacation rental in Locarno.

Apartment mit zentraler Lage, toller Ausblick!
Leider ist die Matratze steinhart und die Nachbarn sind ziemlich laut. Wir sind mehrmals aufgewacht wegen Lärm auf unserem Stock. An der Sauberkeit kann man noch arbeiten. Check-in & -out war einfach.
