Parkhotel Brenscino Brissago

Perfecto

Reviewed By Nattakarn_Ta

I have been to many 4-6 stars hotels in 4 continents and this 3 stars hotel really gives me a new definition of 3 stars hotel. During booking I had a bit strange feeling that I have to pay 5 CHF for slippers and bathrobe. They also sell swiss brand amenities for a little price of 16 CHF, parking fee 12 CHF a night and kettle costs 10 CHF per day. I felt this is a bad trick of low cost airline but the positive reviews won me over, so I booked the hotel anyway. Now the real experieces: Entrance is nicely decorated and the swing chairs are very comfy, you have to try them! The room is very clean and they do have free organic amenities, the view is stunning! Check-in and Check-out were hassle-free, friendly, professional. Restaurant has nice ambient, quality food at reasonable price. Swimming pool area is good for chill-out, good view with mild cirus fragance of different types of orange trees and other flowers. The water temp is however too cold (23 Celcius). Breakfast was nice as European Standard with Champagne. Lovely garden with mini-golf and comfy sofa. They also have playing room for children. The hotel is up the hill but not so far for a walk to restaurants at the lake side. All in all I highly recommend this hotel. I hope they have an automated coffee/tea/hot water stand like in Japan. It would be just nicer!

2nd time after 3 years and even better than we remembered. Firstly, thank you for a surprise upgrade which made such a big difference. Our whole stay in ER is just on another level from anywhere else in the world (and we do travel often). Impecable manners of staff, extreme attention to details, fabulous facilities and just pure relaxation. I can not wait to be back - pure class. Thank you Cristian and team for looking after us during breakfast. Service was second to none. We will be back many more times.

We celebrated our wedding here! From the beginning to the end everything was perfect! Great staff, lovely food and nice location. We had a nice aperitif outdoor with local sparkling wine and local snacks. Afterwards we were in a lovely small room with a chimney for our wedding dinner! We had a blast! To end up the night we went to the bar which was also fun. Thanks to all staff members of the Belvedere for making our day memorable

The location is great with a very comfortable and quiet garden, still within a couple of minutes walking distance to Ascona lakeside, the hotel rooms are nice and very clean, the hotel staff is very friendly and forthcoming and the dinner in the restaurant really delicious! Also C19 measures are taken very serious so that we felt very safe and protected as guests.

Overpriced average

So far our experience with ibis has been quite good indeed. However, at this location, we got a small room (wall was shaking when neighbors slammed their door) with twin bed and narrow passage to the bath room. TV set was broken (repaired on next day).
