Pros:

We were driving past and looking for somewhere to stop overnight, have some dinner, and relax. To be honest, that small hotel next to the lake exceeded all our expectations. The room balcony overlooked the lake directly, and the restaurant food was absolutely amazing. The beef tartare and asparagus risotto were probably some of the best I’ve ever eaten! Can’t wait to be back in the area again — we’ll definitely be staying there over and over again.

Cons:

nothing

Pros:

Lokalita a výhled na jezero

Cons:

Podkrovní pokoj je hezký, ale strop nízko. I když jsme byli jednu noc, podařilo se nám praštit se o trám několikrát do hlavy.

Pros:

Bien situe pour aller au lac, mais très mal situé globalement car à proximité directe de l'autoroute et des chemins de fer

Cons:

Extrêmement bruyant !! Nous n'avpns pas pu dormir. Très mauvaise isolation phonique, sous les toits. Les clients qui réservent par Brookings sont logés au dernier étage, sans vue (velux très haut). Bref, le personnel est charmant mais nous avons payé très cher pour ne pas dormir. Vous êtes à 2 doigts de la frontière italienne, où les prix sont bien plus accessibles.

Pros:

Un piccolo albergo molto carino, sul bordo del lago di Lugano. Camera da letto molto piacevole; letto e cuscini comodissimi. Bagno piccolo. Pulizia ineccepibile. Ristorante davvero di buon livello; bella scelta di vini. Servizio al tempo stesso efficiente e gradevole.
