La Palma au Lac

On Locarno-Muralto's calm lakeside promenade, La Palma au Lac sits right on the boardwalk a short stroll from Piazza Grande and the boat landing. Train and bus links are around the corner, Giardini Pubblici and Casino Locarno are nearby, and attractions like Madonna del Sasso, Verzasca Dam and Mount Cardada are all within easy reach. Pet-friendly and well placed for exploring the old town.

A refreshed, modern vibe runs through 68 air-conditioned rooms. Lake-facing rooms have balconies with sun loungers; rooms feature minibars, espresso makers, flat-screen TVs, safes and desks, with rainfall showers or bathtubs and hairdryers.

A full spa offers massages, body treatments and facials alongside a hot tub, sauna and steam bath. Stay fit in the gym, top up your tan on the sunbathing terrace, rent bikes or book local tours at the concierge — and enjoy complimentary Wi‑Fi throughout the property.

Conference space, a banquet hall and two meeting rooms make this a good pick for events. There's a 24-hour front desk, multilingual staff, luggage storage and onsite self parking (charges may apply).

On-site restaurant, bar and café serve drinks and meals, with weekday buffet breakfast available for a fee and limited-hour room service. Sip coffee by the promenade or unwind with a lakeside aperitif.
