Chiesa di San Francesco Tours

It's interesting to delve into different belief systems. An outing to Chiesa di San Francesco is a great way to get to know a part of the local culture.

This house of prayer is on the to-do lists of many visitors to Locarno. But Chiesa di San Francesco isn't the area's only highlight. Piazza Grande, Monte Tamaro Cable Car, and Madonna del Sasso are some other worthwhile attractions nearby.

The view from our room was amazing! The Spa staff and spa treatment was so good we booked a couples massage again the next day. Highly recommend booking the Spa! Food was okay and the rest of the staff were okay at best. We are a younger couple (early 30s) on our honeymoon. Definitely one the youngest couples there. We both felt the staff was more welcoming to other guests than us. Not sure if it was an age thing or something else but we were very respectful and quiet. Just something we both felt and noticed throughout our stay. Would come back for the Views, the Spa and pool but that’s really it.
