We loved this hotel ! The staff were very friendly and helpful. The breakfast had a great variety of fresh food, the pool was relaxing (although there was a lot of construction noise next door) along with the evening music. I would def recommend this hotel. But I have an issue with Expedia and cannot get through to a live person to discuss !!

The property was clean but it was old. All the furniture and appliances were maybe over 30 years and it was like staying in the 1950. But my wife liked the breakfast. The staff were great and helpful. But the hotel itself needed renovation.

Super clean hotel and friendly staff. Good location, few minutes walk to the lake and 20 min walk to Laguna. Excellent funicular nearby, fab views from there. Really good bus service to Laguna or other places which is free with a Ticino card (available at the hotel) We went to Morcote village on the bus which is definitely worth a visit.

View of beautiful lake Lugano

Chose this hotel for its lake view from balcony and location, walkabilty to the lake and shopping/restaurants. Everything could have been perfect, if not for old cigarette smell in the room (non smoking room was pre requested). Needed to sleep with the door open. Would have asked for room change if we were staying more than a night. Front desk staff were extremely courteous and well appreciated.
