Locarno, Switzerland by day

Not so charming as by night, but still worth a visit.

Take the funicular to see the panoramic view of the lake and the town.

Hotel review - Crowne Plaza, Heathrow Airport, United Kingdom

Big room , nice bed, but cold in the room. The air conditioner did not worke and at 12 degrees outside, heat was needed.

Decent breakfast. Private parking for a fee, but you don´t have a choice.
