It's a nice enough hotel, right next to the funicular that takes you to the train station. The rooms are quite dated, but the breakfast was nice the service was very good.

We loved our stay and wish we could have stayed longer. Great location. TIP from Lugano train station: GET on funicular. Exit funicular and immediately make U turn. Hotel is right there at the bottom. Great restaurants walkable and our favorite breakfast of our trip.

Great hotel option for staying in Lugano center. The funicular connects the SBB railway station with the city center and funicular station is just 10m away from the hotel entrance.

Great hotel in a great location. I appreciated the hotel having 1 standard European power socket as I was unable to find an adaptor for the Swiss socket in Australia. Coffee machine in room & fridge. Was given a free block of Swiss chocolate upon check in which was nice & a Ticino Ticket with free public transport.

This hotel is next to the furnicular that goes to the train station and also a very easy walk to the lake and shopping. The included breakfast was nice with an assortment of options. The beds were comfortable , the facilities were clean and nicely kept. The staff was friendly and helpful. It was nice to have access to the gym and sauna. We were very happy with this hotel.

Easy to find, just get off the funicular and walk through adjacent courtyard. Heard the funicular and it sounded to me like a distant jet plane, but it bothered my significant other. Staff was awesome and helpful.

Close to rail station but not easy to find. Nice room, nice selection for breakfast. some parts of the hotel are next to a tram line that take people up and down the hill via the train station so the noise is noticeable.

Communication with the hotel was easy once we booked. They informed us of where to park our car and it was slight reduced parking rate as hotel guest. Breakfast was decent. Great location in Lugano. Staff were friendly and helpful.

Basic accommodation but got everything you need. Coffee machine and fridge are a big plus in the room. Shower was great. Additional seating option would be good but it lacks of space in the room. Staff were all friendly- for my two nights stay this place was good. A bit noisy during the night but I knew that, so not a big deal. I would stay here again for a short stay in Lugano.

The place has good reception service. The room is clean and moderately modern. The location is at the center of the city and about 10 min from Lugano station. However, the noise from the funicular can be quite disturbing. If you’re sensitive to noise then you go somewhere else otherwise highly recommended.

Clean and large 2-bedroom apartment with kitchenette, which was perfect for our family of 5. The hotel is located close to everything in the center of town. Also, it is at the bottom of the funicular going to and from of the train station/uptown, which we found very helpful, albeit a little -but tolerably - noisy, since our room was right above it on the 4th floor. The staff was very kind and helpful. Highly recommended.

Excellent location directly by public transport and main shopping and dining area. Small breakfast buffet but excellent quality. Check in and out were efficient and easy. Parking is a 3 minute walk from the hotel and the funicular adjacent to the entrance makes arrival by train extremely convenient.

The hotel is conveniently positioned in the town centre, near the train station and the lake. The hotel room was comfortable and the breakfast was very tasty with a good selection of products. The funicular that passes through the hotel building is a fun novelty as well as being very convenient!

I'm a simple man. It was ok. (amenities top notch, one person at the front desk militaristicaly beaureatocraric) zero flexibility, or willingness to help me solve a problem. (not a huge problem, but I hope you don't encounter one)

The hotel is ideally located for train travelers next to the Funicular which goes to the main train station in a few minutes. It is also right in the area for restaurants and 5 minutes walk to the lake.
