Hotel De La Paix

10/10 Excellent

"I know most people aren't as keen on walking as myself, but when you come out of the main entrance of the train station and turn right and carry straight on, you will come to this hotel in about twenty minutes. The hotel itself is big, spacious, and close to the shore of the lake with views across towards Italy. The breakfast is excellent. The staff at reception were very helpful as I had managed to double-book my 1-night stay and we were able to sort things out."

Suitenhotel Parco Paradiso

"We had a lovely room/suite during our stay with stunning view of the lake. Breakfast was a highlight every morning with a wonderful selection of hot and cold options. The staff in the restaurant were very attentive. An enjoyable stay."

Hotel Funicolare

10/10 Excellent

"We really enjoyed our stay. We were there just after the season ended so the restaurant had sadly just closed. But the town was still lovely, we were able to get food easily. The front desk attendants were always very helpful and nice and the hotel was lovely. The view is unmatched. Honestly I am still thinking about sitting out on the balcony looking out at the mountains and the lake."

The View Lugano

10/10 Excellent

"Our stay was exceptional with a nice balcony and view. The breakfast and dinner was excellent and they even provided a complimentary smart vehicle to take into the city. Nice touch."
