Welcome to the Al Faro...

The Hotel Al Faro is idyllically situated at the picturesque lakeside promenade in the heart of Ascona. Stroll along the lovely streets and take in the view of the several churches, cafés and shops. Moreover, the beautiful countryside invites to long hiking and biking tours, for example to the adjacent city Locarno with its sanctuary Madonna del Sasso. Within 90 minutes by car, Milan is reachable.
