Stayed here early weekday, early January. The hotel is located close to the center in a slightly elevated area with partial views. The hotel restaurant and cafe area also features an outside terrace with pool area. Hotel style is slightly outdated ("Swiss Senior Citizen Style" ... Excuse my cynicism), but the whole property is very well kept and 100% clean.... More

This was a really nice hotel. The room was well-appointed. The pool area was very attractive. The staff was courteous and helpful. And the breakfast was the best we had in any of the hotels we stayed in while we were in Switzerland. It's quite a hike from the funicular, but the accomodations at the price make it more than...

Pros: great room, nice to go for a swim, reasonable price, VERY helpful English speaking staff, great breakfast. only con is that it is a bit of a walk to the pedestrian area/lake. I'd stay here again!

It's like having to pay extra for having an telephone or tv in my room. Another way to collect money from the guests. Room is quite ok, but it smells in there. I guess it's because of the old carpeting on the floor which has seen it's better days. Mr. Payne's Mattress-check is again ruthless and unforgiven: THE MATTRESSES are... More

We very much enjoyed our stay. Lovely walk to the city center and lake. Our room had a gorgeous view of the lake and mountains, was quiet enough that even at night we could leave the door to our patio open for the wonderful air.

Overall, we really enjoyed the Delfino. Very helpful staff. Good breakfast included, however, it is the same every day. The dining room was surprisingly good and reasonably priced by Swiss standards and was very quiet, only one other table served the night we were there. Rooms are small but comfortable and efficiently cleaned. We got a 3 nights for the... More

The hotel is comfortable, but the decor - like so many places in this lovely country - looks like something from the 1970s. The room was small but comfortable. The hotel is located about fifteen minutes walk from the main part of town. At the moment, eating out in Switzerland is breathtakingly expensive. We had nice pizzas in the town,... More

I stayed at this hotel for 3 nights back in May of 2012 and this hotel was absolutely perfect! The rooms were anything super fancy/flashy but that's not something I desired. The bed was comfortable, rooms were clean and well taken care of, and the bathrooms were quite spacious. The best part of the room though was the balcony. Wake... More

We quite enjoyed staying here for one night & while the hotel is not particularly fancy, it was affordable by Swiss standards (many of the other hotels we looked at were much more expensive!) The hotel is not particularly large or new but has small, neat, clean rooms (nothing fancy) & I think some of the rooms must have a... More
