VISIONAPARTMENTS Lugano - self check-in ★★★

📍 Viale Carlo Cattaneo 17 A, Lugano

"The location was strategical to say the least. Wherever you’re lean to go, I believed that I was at the epicentre of everything I wanted to go to. 🏬 I was greeted by Mattia who assisted me with all my questions with the most friendly and helpful answers I could get, including the check in. ✅ As a fist timer in Lugano he suggested me where to go for my short time stay, really appreciated! 👍 The room itself was nice and tidy, got a fifth floor level you get a nice view to mount Bré, at sunrise it’s an outstanding panorama to say the least!🗻 Amenity wise you have all what you can get and more! I mean an Iron board at your closet and a dishwasher, that’s a first! 😄 Breakfast wise could have more choices but the “cornetti” made me forget all about it!🥐 An experience worth to repeat, recommendable for single travelers! 😉"

The View Lugano Hotels in Lugano

The View Lugano

"We spent three nights at The View Lugano at the end of our two-week Europe trip, and it was truly one of the most spectacular hotels I’ve ever stayed in—if not the most spectacular. The hotel is perfectly named: it sits high on a hill overlooking the stunning Lake Lugano, and the moment we stepped onto our balcony at sunset, the view literally brought my wife to tears. The town itself is charming, intimate, and beautifully quaint—much smaller and more peaceful than Lake Como, which we had also considered for this part of our trip. Choosing Lugano was absolutely the right call. Everything at The View Lugano was exceptional. Breakfast was outstanding, the on-site restaurant was fantastic, and the hotel offers a Michelin-starred tasting-menu experience that was unforgettable. Another amazing touch: guests can use complimentary electric cars and smart cars to explore the town. We used them multiple times for dinners and shopping trips, and it made getting around both fun and convenient. The entire property has an incredibly romantic atmosphere, making it the perfect way to end our travels across several countries. We left feeling relaxed, connected, and already dreaming of coming back. I cannot recommend The View Lugano highly enough."

Hotel&Hostel Montarina ★★
"Convenient location within 10 minutes walk from the train station and bus terminal. Local bus stops just outside the train station and can get to Lugano Centro and Monte Bre easily. The hotel is located up the slope facing the train station. There's a view of the train station from our room but it's not nosiy once the wooden doors of the balcony are closed."
