Guest Ratings & Reviews
My stay at the hotel was simply fantastic. The room was small but comfortable for one person, clean, and very quiet. The service was top-notch, with the staff being extremely helpful and competent. The location was a nice and super close to the promenade, although the noise from the main street could be bothersome. The dining experience was very nice with a good selection of typical Italian food. Overall, a great value for the money.
The hotel was really nice, clean, and comfortable, ready for us before the official check-in time with a convenient check-out at 12pm, which is great. However, it would have been nice if they had put us together since they knew we were a pair. Some areas of the hotel look old, especially the walls.
The hotel rooms are cozy and well-designed, but noise from pipes can be heard. The service is friendly and efficient, with great amenities. The location is strategic, close to downtown and with helpful staff. The dining options are standard, missing some variety. Overall, a pleasant stay with some minor drawbacks.
I had a wonderful stay at the hotel. The rooms were equipped with quality fittings and products, providing enough space for two people, including a convenient small desk for work. The breakfast was perfect, and the bathroom was spacious, bright, and even had a window.
I absolutely loved my stay at this hotel! The location is fantastic, just a short walk to Lugano's main shops, restaurants, and the lake. The rooms offer stunning views across the lake, and I had a balcony room with a wraparound balcony that was simply amazing. The service was efficient and friendly, making my stay even more enjoyable. The dining options were convenient and delicious. The facilities were great, especially the views of Monte San Salvatore. Overall, a fantastic experience with great value for money.
My stay at the hotel was wonderful overall. The rooms were clean and comfortable, and the staff was very friendly and welcoming. However, there was some noise from the road, so requesting a room away from it is advisable. The view from my room was simply beautiful.
The hotel offers spacious and spotlessly clean rooms; however, there were additional charges for a larger room than the one booked. The service was exceptionally friendly and engaging. The location was perfect, close to the lake and transportation options. The dining experience was varied and plentiful, with a good selection of items at breakfast.
