    The hotel was an amazing breakfast! They do not have a restaurant for dinner, so we had to walk to the old town to find restaurants. Old town has the feel of Nice or Monaco, all old town apartments which expensive shops underneath. Very pretty and clean. The lake is to die for! Next to the hotel is the funicular that takes you up the San Salvatore. The view from there is stunning!!! The trip is not cheap (nor is Lugano in general) but worth it and the hotel gives you discount tickets.

    Very kind hotel's responsible person, he did his best, despite some issues at the check-in with the Booking portal. The portal didn't work, so they had to charge manually my credit card again. Not the receptionist's fault, though. The artists who have slept at the hotel and I booked the 3 rooms for were really satisfied about the nice cozy rooms, the amazingly comfortable beds, the heating and the view over Lugano right outside the hotel's door.

    I really liked the calm area a little bit outside of the city centre but with the excellent Lugano-city card (you will receive when checking in), you have the bus near the hotel. I also appreciated the ceiling fan. Much better than air-condition and works very well. Breakfast was very good and nice to taste local products. I felt like at home and will definitely come back !
