Recent Reviews in Bellinzona

Hotel Beretta

10/10 Excellent

"A very nice, well-cared for room, in a great location. Such a beautiful region! The hike up to Vezio is well-worth the effort. Oh, and the bar below the hotel is a cheerful spot with good food."

Villa Rêverie - Boutique Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Hotel Reverie is a beautiful small hotel. The renovation is superb - modern and clean yet still retaining many architectural details from the original villa. We loved the superior room with lake view. The breakfast served each morning was delicious. The train station is an easy 5-7 min walk on same street and is completely level. Ferry station is a bit further past station but still easy walk. Several cafes and restaurants between station and ferry. Our stay at Hotel Reverie was relaxing and easy to enjoy! We don’t typically stay at boutique hotels but we are very happy to have made this our home for four nights at Lake Como."
