Grand Hotel Villa Castagnola

Grand Hotel Villa Castagnola ★★★★★

📍 Via Pico 9, Lugano

"In love with the hotel! Amazing place!"

Hotel Delfino Lugano
8.5 (93 reviews)

Hotel Delfino Lugano ★★★

📍 Hotel Delfino Lugano, Via Cassarinetta 6, Lugano

"This hotel is not bad, send a card that can be swiped in the city on the same day, and the traffic is more convenient, there is a bus stop at the door. This city is also good, although it is very close to Italy, but it is still more quiet style of Switzerland. I feel much safer in this city. It is much better than that of Verona. Verona is like a slum. This city is a very serious European city. The hotel room is exactly the same as the promotional photo, and there is no difference. In the room, the door is not particularly soundproof. If someone speaks in the corridor, it will be very clear, but overall it is still relatively quiet, because everyone's voice is not particularly loud."

Hotel Splendide Royal
8.5 (123 reviews)

Hotel Splendide Royal ★★★★★

📍 Riva Antonio Caccia 7, Lugano

"It is very close to the train station and bus station. Lugano has beautiful scenery. You can walk by Lake Lugano every morning and evening. The experience is great. I think I will still choose this hotel next time I come."

Villa Sassa
8.8 (122 reviews)

Villa Sassa ★★★★

📍 Via Tesserete 10, Lugano

"The hotel is on an uphill slope and the scenery is great. The breakfast has a lot of varieties, the room is large, and the balcony is also large. The hotel also has its own hot spring, so you need to wear a swimsuit. Remember to bring"

Hotel Admiral Lugano

Hotel Admiral Lugano ★★★★

📍 Via Geretta 15, Lugano

Hotel&Hostel Montarina
8.6 (47 reviews)

Hotel&Hostel Montarina ★★

📍 Via Montarina 1, Lugano

"The room was spacious, the surrounding environment was nice, and it was very close to the train station. We checked in at 11:30 pm that night, and the owner was still waiting for us, which was very touching. The only downside was carrying our luggage up the stairs."

Swiss Diamond Hotel & Spa

"Tip top"

Best Western Hotel Bellevue Au Lac

📍 Riva Antonio Caccia 10, Lugano

"I stayed at Best Western Hotel Bellevue au Lac for just one night, but it was a truly pleasant experience. The staff were warm and welcoming, the room was spotless, and the location was perfect—right by the lake with beautiful views. The food was delicious, and overall, everything exceeded my expectations. I’d definitely love to return for a longer stay next time!"

Acquarello Swiss Quality Hotel Hotels in Lugano

Acquarello Swiss Quality Hotel

"The hotel's location is very convenient. After arriving at the train station, take the cable car down one stop, turn right after exiting the station, and the hotel is right there. It's very convenient to get around, and the hotel provides a local transportation card. The breakfast is quite plentiful, and you can even make your own orange juice. Because the cable car station is right outside, it can be a bit noisy, but it gets quiet in the evening when the cable car stops operating. The hotel provides earplugs."

VISIONAPARTMENTS Lugano - self check-in Hotels in Lugano

VISIONAPARTMENTS Lugano - self check-in

"Location: very convenient. There’s a bus stop less than 2 mins to and from train station. 2 buses to and from the apt. Bus goes to nearest Migros too. Convenience: Easy to self check in. Read review and procrastinated on booking this apt but was surprisingly easy and we just have to submit our passport copy for their processing. If you did not probably will have issue checking in. If we followed the instructions given no issues. Apartment: very clean, spacious and we slept like it’s our home. Kitchenette is very useful for us and also we love the washing machine and dryer facilities. Free of charge. You have to prep your washing powder. Will definitely stay here if I revisit. Highly recommended"

Hotel Atlantico Self Check-IN Hotels in Lugano

Hotel Atlantico Self Check-IN

"We highly recommend the Hotel Atlantico. It is in a great location with just a five minute walk to restaurants, Migros grocery, and the bus station that goes to the train station. It is also within walking distance to the Mt Bre Funicular and the lake. Sara and Nicolas are exceptional hosts. They go out of their way to help with whatever one needs. Their breakfast has just about anything you could possibly want."

Colorado Hotel Hotels in Lugano

"Very difficult to find as sat nav kept sending us down dead end roads, however once we did ,we arrived at the rear entrance which was shared by the local garage and bike hire s it was not immediately clear if we were in the right place. First impressions were of a very dated old fashioned hotel, with dusty old stair carpet and a cluttered reception area. We were promised a free travel card , but this was not forthcoming. Reception was rarely occupied (perhaps we were the only residents ??) so had little chance to chase this up. Room was spotlessly clean , but very small and hot. The air con did not seem to work. Shower was on a tap mixer which was bit like playing chicken with the varying temperature. However good location if you don't mind the short walk up the hill, staff were very helpful (when you saw one) Parking was available at a cost. For 2 nights it was OK, but doubt a family or longer stay is sustainable. Lugano itself felt very safe, but very expensive. Boat rips were good and the general location was spectacular with views over the lake and mountains."

Grand Hotel Villa Castagnola ★★★★★
"Felt like a home away from home—if you were the great-grandchild of a wealthy aristocrat who owned a villa in one of the most immaculate places on earth. Grand, yes, but somehow still cozy-feeling. Staff treated us like family, service was above and beyond, location made everything easily accessible, but you won't have to go too far as you'd be content spending day after day lounging by the lake, pool, lawn, or just in the well-appointed rooms."

"Everything is perfect. Dogs are allowed and it has a cloud at night. Unfortunately, a owner left the dog sitting on the restaurant chair. But for that the hotel can nothing!"

"The location of the hotel is very good, with a panoramic view of the beautiful lakes and mountains. It is a good vacation. However, the hotel is on the roadside and there is a little noise from cars passing by at night. It is far from the city center and there are no other options except the hotel restaurant."
