The view from the balcony was stunning. The bed was the most comfortable bed I have ever experienced. Loved this hotel. A little far from the centre but you get free public transport and the buses go every 10 minutes from right outside the hotel. You can also walk it in 30 minutes if you don’t mind the walk.

    The location was excellent as we were in the heart of Lugano with easy access to city center. The beds and pillows were very comfortable. The A/C worked great and we were very comfortable sleeping at night. The staff was very helpful when we needed assistance.
