Posizione , gentilezza e disponibilità dello staff, pulizia della struttura in total.
fujiwebsJapanまずまず問題はないです。快適。
ロケーションは中心地にも近く便利だった。オンラインチェックインだったがチェックインもスムーズにでき、混乱は無かった。部屋も改装したばかりのようにきれいな感じだった。
夜はエレベータが使えないのは少し面倒(3階の部屋だったので）また私のチェックポイントとして机に照明と電源（足元にはあったが。。）がなかったのがマイナス。またスリッパも無かった。

Questions about Hotel Ceresio
What time is check-in and check-out at Hotel Ceresio?
Check-in is from 1:00 PM. Check-out is by 11:00 AM. If you're arriving late, tell us and we'll ask the property to hold the room.
Does Hotel Ceresio allow pets?
No — the property states that pets are not allowed.
Is there parking at Hotel Ceresio?
Yes — parking is available on site at a charge the property sets. We check the rate and whether a space can be reserved against your dates.
Is breakfast included at Hotel Ceresio?
Breakfast is offered at the property. Whether it's included depends on the rate — the board type is shown on each room once you put your dates in.
Does Hotel Ceresio have Wi-Fi?
Yes — internet access is listed among the property's facilities.
Can I book a block of rooms at Hotel Ceresio?
The property lists meeting and banquet space, which usually means it handles group business — but how many rooms it will hold at once, for how long, and at what rate are set case by case and are not in any feed. Tell us the dates and the number of rooms and we'll get those terms from the property in writing before anything is charged.
Does Hotel Ceresio have wheelchair accessible rooms?
The property lists step-free or accessible facilities. That flag is the one least able to settle the question: a hotel can carry it and still have a step at the entrance, or a bath rather than a roll-in shower, and it does not say whether the accessible room is free on your dates. Tell us what you need and we'll ask the property directly rather than reading you the flag.
How do I book Hotel Ceresio?
Put your dates in above and book online, or call (888) 789-8585 and we'll do it for you — including things a booking form can't handle, like a block of rooms, a monthly rate or an invoice for your employer.
