What Guests Said About Lugano:

Scored out of 10, guest rating 10

Lugano is an amazing place to visit.

Lugano is an amazing place to visit. Stunning views of the lake and the mountains surrounding it. Cute villages at a short boat trip distance. Nice walks along the water and good bathing opportunities. People are friendly, food is good and everything is clean. It's the best combination of the Swiss and the Italian way of life. The only real issue is the high costs of everything. Otherwise we would love to stay a week minimum each year! The city is very easy to get around with a good local transportation network as well as the boats crossing the lake. We took the boat from Paradiso to Gandria and then walked the Olive path back (warning for many stairs up and down, but a beautiful walk!). Swam at a Lido in Grotto Elvezia, which was a perfect mid-way stop, and then managed to match a bus perfectly as the nice path changed to a steep sidewalk with zero shadow as approaching Lugano. Jumped of one stop before Lido di Lugano (where there's a big Migros supermarket with a café) for a late lunch, used the playground across the street, and then finished the afternoon by enjoying the facilities at Lido di Lugano.

We were there mid summer and the temps were low to mid 30’s deg C. We were glad to be in Lugano (as opposed to a small village) as the more modern hotels have aircon. Our experience in Morcote was no aircon in a quaint hotel in a beautiful and idealistic location. But it was very uncomfortable and no respite from the heat. From Lugano it’s easy to take boat trips or bus to the various villages around the lake as well as a number of walks to villages and mountains. Eg Brusino Arsizio: Best for mountain panoramas. Catch the cable car up to Serpiano on Monte San Giorgio. Also funiculars up to Monte San Salvatore, the “Olive Walk “ to the village of Gandria. Four days at an easy pace with relaxing afternoons by the pool was perfect for us.

Lugano is a beautiful city. We were there in the rain, I would love to see it in the sunshine. 2-3 days would be very nice. I'm sure a boat ride would be great. We met the bus for the Bernina train. It was a beautiful ride.

We booked this accommodation as we got off the train into Switzerland. The location was perfect for us. The messaging between booking and checking out was fantastic. The views were out of this world ! On the morning, a snowy mountain is one side and glorious sun at the other ! The property was beautiful, clean, tidy, and modern with comfy beds and a good shower.
