The service was excellent and we had a superb evening meal. We could walk to the lake, and there is an efficient bus service from just around the corner into town (and station). The disadvantage was the main road itself, which was noisy if you have the window open.

Luca was really nice when I arrived and helped me giving the right instructions to navigate around the city. The hotel is located in a nice area, it’s clean and the bed was extremely comfortable. The only downside about this hotel is the breakfast: expensive, with little options, the cereal was old, no fresh food, fruits. Disappointed!

Evening staff less than helpful although morning staff was friendly and helpful. Bedding was old and of poor quality and questionably clean. Towels were more like rags. Location was quite a bit from the center of town but a bus stop was close. Hardly a view of the lake due to over-grown trees and shrubs. I definitely would NOT stay here again.

Vi hade inte en så positiv upplevelse av Hotel Firenze. Vi fick tillgång till rummet 1,5 timme senare än vad vi hade kommit överens om. Det fanns ingen AC så rummet var alldeles för varmt samt att kuddarna var väldigt obekväma.

On en a pour son argent mais attention…

Dans un quartier périphérique de Lugano (mais ça reste à moins de 20 minutes en bus, dont l’arrêt est à 100 m de l’hôtel). On a aimé : le prix (on va pas se mentir, 100.- en pleine saisie pour deux, c’est presque sans concurrence) ; la vue, avec le lac à 200 m (de petites ruelles y descendent) ; la terrasse ombragée aux fauteuils confortables ; le petit balcon de la chambre ; la cuisine (très bon tajine au poulet de la cheffe) ; le vin (excellent rioja…une fois refroidi) ; l’amabilité du personnel. On n’a pas aimé : l’exiguïté de la chambre, qui fait qu’on se cogne souvent au lit (supprimer un meuble inutile et moche aiderait. Je dis ça…) ; le bruit (on dirait pas mais il y a beaucoup de trafic sur la route en contrebas et en plein été y’a des motards qui se croient en compétition) ; l’absence de climatisation ET de ventilation. Conclusions : comme j’avais lu les commentaires, nous avions pris deux petits ventilateurs, des bouchons pour les oreilles et un bandeau de nuit, dormi la fenêtre grande ouverte et ça s’est très bien passé malgré la canicule (22 degrés minimum, encore 26 à minuit). Mais faut prévoir ! Vous voilà donc prévenus.

Unser Eindruck

Als wir im Hotel ankamen war es schwierig uns verständigen zu können, da das Personal keine gute Englischkentnisse hatte. Das Zimmer war definitiv in die Jahre gekommen. Auf dem Boden wanderten Ameisen herum und allgemein Sauber war es in unserem Zimmer nicht. An sehr vielen Stellen war es staubig und dreckig. Der Geruch im Badezimmer war recht unangenehm und verteilte sich im ganzen Zimmer. 226 CHF und zusätzlich noch Übernachtungssteuern sind absolut nicht lohnenswert und weiterzuempfehlen. Gegessen haben wir nicht im Hotel, also essen ist im oben genannten Preis nicht einbegriffen.
