Pros:

Villa's facilities are beautiful

Cons:

The days were unfortunately too hot in August, and there was no air conditioning. Keeping the windows open wasn’t really an option either, as the nearby road was quite noisy.

Rien, tout était parfait !

A Peaceful Haven
Pros:

The hotel is conveniently close to the EOC hospital and the lovely garden and terrace is a little haven of peace to relax in.

Cons:

It is on a busy road but the surrounding vegetation helps to reduce the noise or helps you forget about it.

Séjourner à la Villa Selva ressemble à une escapade familiale ambiance « Relais & Château ».
Pros:

Tout mais surtout la gentillesse de la propriétaire qui est gérante de la Villa ainsi que l’excellente cuisine du lieu avec des glaces faites maison, confitures maison…

3 dniowy wyjazd
Pros:

Bardzo fajne miejsce na krotki odpoczynek w miescie Lugano.Duzym plusem jest ogrod i basen gdyz w upalne dni przynosi ulge w czasie gdy nie da sie zwiedzac przez temperature na zewnatrz.Przystanek pod samym hotelem wiec odleglosc od miasta nie sprawia zadnego utrudnienia.Bardzo czyste pokoje i mega wygodne lozko.Villa jest obslugiwana przez kilka uroczych pan ktore sa dostepne i chetne do pomocy.

Cons:

Minusem jak dla mnie to bardzo ubogie sniadanie.Wiem ze wloska kultura prawie nie zjada sniadan ale jako turystka ktora lubi posiedziec przy kawie i pokosztowac roznosci jestem troche zawiedziona.Sniadanie podawane do stolu w postaci kilku plastrow sera i szynki to troche minimum.Fakt ze bardzo dobre jakosciowo produkty.Brak szweda to jednak duzy minus do zmiany.

Pros:

Die Gastgeberin sowie das Personal waren sehr freundlich. Alles war sauber und das Essen sehr lecker. Nachdem wir ausgecheckt hatten, durften wir trotzdem noch einige Zeit im Garten/am Pool verbringen. Wir sind mit unserem 6-Jährigen gereist umd hatten das Gefühl, dass Kinder willkommen sind. Wir kommen gerne wieder! Herzlichen Dank! <3
