    Lugano is a beautiful place, wonderful lake surrounded by mountains. It's a great place for a relaxing few days, away from the busier parts of Europe. There's plenty to do, including wonderful lake cruises.

    I had no criticisms. An unusual aspect was their having a seat which can be out inside the shower for safety. The location was excellent, the staff very competent and helfsul. The Ticino ticket was very convenient for me.

    Such a beautiful city on the side of the lake. It's so relaxing and a nice mix of Swiss efficiency and cleanliness with Italian charm and rustic. Lots of chances for walks and swimming and other things to do.

    So many shops and restaurants so nearby. No transportation needed. Funicular was great from train station to town center. Lake Lugano great view. Switzerland was not as expensive as everyone says. Free bus and train. Reasonable meal and drinks.

    The lake view was wonderful and our balcony was great. The location was excellent - so close to restaurants and the city centre, as well as lakeside walks and the boating/lake steamer services. The hotel breakfast was good, with good lake views from the breakfast room.

    the view was unbelievable, Lugano is a magical place and you can see that from the hotel, In the morning you can just feel the paradise and at night you can just sit on the balcony and feel the quietness with a perfect view of the city at night.

    Very pleasant hotel close to both the railway station (via the funicular) and the lakeshore. Our room was upgraded and it was very quiet. Would most definitely stay at this hotel again on return visits to Lugano.
