LUGANODANTE Boutique & Lifestyle Hotel

8/10 Good

"Decent hotel and location. Very smelly cleaning products."

Continental Parkhotel

10/10 Excellent

"Great location, great staff, great hotel! No complaints, we had a wonderful stay with a beautiful view :)"

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."

B5 Boutique Hotel Lugano

8/10 Good

"There is no one onsite. It is all remote, It is very close to the train station so that served us well. You check in and they give you access to the building and the room via bluetooth on your phone. Everything went smoothly for us and we had no issues. The room was good enough for what we needed. Would stay there again."
