10/10

Location and staff were great. The walls are thin so it was pretty noisy because of the loud guests. Obviously the hotel can’t do much about that. The location and friendly staff made it a super pleasant stay.

6/10

The hotel is fine. My room was clean and the breakfast was decent. I was woken by noise in the corridor but this may have been because my room was near the lift. If I could choose again I'd prefer to overlook the lake. But it's very convenient for Lugano station.

This was a lovely and well maintained hotel. Our room was spacious, comfortable, and very clean. The hotel has a lovely courtyard where you can enjoy breakfast, and it’s walking distance from the main train station and down the hill from the main shopping and dining area in Lugano. We really enjoyed our stay there.
