This contemporary studio apartment is the ideal bolthole for exploring the beautiful city of Lugano. Located within walking distance of the city's cultural highlights as well as conference centres so it's perfectly suited for anyone, whether you're travelling for business or pleasure. We love how easily this apartment lends itself to any occasion. A cosy bedroom, a living room for watching the smart TV, a workspace, or a romantic dining space. Its classic, neutral-toned decor is sleek and timeless, while still having a homeliness to it. Even if you're in Lugano on business, it'd be remiss not to explore this wonderful city with its unique blend of Swiss and Italian cultures. The Museum of Art of Italian Switzerland is not to be missed, and you can even sail between Switzerland and Italy for a day trip. Or, you can head to the Old Town to soak up the mix of Swiss-style buildings and Italian-style piazzas. And while there's so much to see, eat, drink, and do in Lugano, the city's highlight is the dazzling Lake Lugano – you can take in all of its beauty from the waterfront of Parco Ciani. After spending dreamy days wandering around this picture-perfect city, you have a bar right downstairs for a nightcap under the stars. Or, pick up a bottle from the local market to be enjoyed in the comfort of your own cosy apartment, nibbling on antipasto around the dining table.
