While this is waterfront Ascona with restaurants below and over by the water it was very quiet and comfortable with double glazed windows. Very good value.

We were more than happy when we arrived - the hotel was clean and comfortable with delicious breakfasts, the area around the hotel was great, we were within a short walk of the town, and the views were spectacular. Hard to imagine anything that could have been better.
