Beautifully positioned at the lake of Lugano, benefiting from sunshine the whole day (even in January), and run in the best hotel tradition Europe used to be famous for.

If you like Lugano, this hotel is quite nice. We stayed in junior suite 302. Enormous two room, two bathroom suite with four balconies. Overlooking the lake. Good value for the price. Wine, fruit, cookies, and chocolate everyday. Fresh water bottles and turn down service were very nice. We didn't eat at the hotel so I can't comment on that.... More
