Struttura antica ma tenuta benissimo, con carattere. C’è anche un piccolo museo e una bellissima piscina.
tutto benissimo - colazione buona ma non eccezionale (tuttavia perfettamente in linea con le stelle)
O hotel é um prédio lindo com muito estórias, um “museu” com peças incríveis. Localização muito boa, café da manhã maravilhoso e atendentes muito atenciosos, em especial, ao Ivan que nos recebeu maravilhosamente. Obrigada pela excelente estadia!

Freundlicher Empfang durch den Nachtportier. Sehr reichhaltiges Frühstücksbuffet und aufmerksame Bedienung.
War nur eine Nacht hier, aber ich werde das Hotel sehr gerne weiterempfehlen.
Chambre et salles de bain pas très grand mais bien aménagé. Emplacement idéal.
Great location, you feel the history with perfectly up to date amenities making our stay very comfortable

Perfektes Frühtsück. Tolle Lage am See und in der Altstadt. Mehrstöckige Gartenanlage mit Pool und Minigolf
We especially appreciated the air conditioning in the heat wave. Beautiful classical hotel very close to the lake.
Nothing.
great location. employees really nice and helpful. very good breakfast. good free wifi. nice pool.
room very old, not lake views and when I asked the ask me to pay 50% more. I do not know if booking customers do not have the best rooms....
Freundliches Personal. Ruhiges Hotel mit bequemen Betten, komfortablen Zimmern und historischen Charm. Gut gelegen mit Parkgarage.
Top Lage, schönes Restaurant direkt am Wasser
Tolle Lage, nettes Personal, funktionierende Aircondition (wichtig bei 35 Grad)
Zimmer sauber, Frühstück reichhaltig. Die Lage ist gut, fußläufig gibt es viel zu sehen und zentrale Orte wie Bootsanleger und Seilbahn sind in gut 5 Minuten zu erreichen.
Vollkommen überteuert, aber das ist ein Problem der gesamten Region. Zimmerausstattung ist alt und nicht in Schuss gehalten, z.B. hängen die Wandlampen schief. Wenn man schon hochpreisig sein will, müssen auch die Kleinigkeiten stimmen. Für dieses Geld bekommt man in den meisten Regionen der Welt mehr.
My husband booked this hotel and I was pleasantly surprised by the location and the hotel itself. The room was not large and we did not have a view, only one small window but bathroom was renovated and the room was comfortable and very clean. The location was amazing, across from the lake and in the centre of Lugano with shopping and lots of restaurants. The SNL boat cruise docks were across the street and close by. We never had to take our car out of the garages because we could walk to almost all the sites including the funicular to San Salvatore. The service was excellent. It was one of the best hotel breakfasts we had on the trip and this was a 3 star not a 4 star as we had stayed in previously. We would definitely stay at this hotel in the future and recommend it.
First off, the location was amazing and a big part of the reason we booked it, but we also read some good reviews around the staff and that turned out to be incredibly true. We came in (6 tired ladies with a lot of baggage) after an overnight flight and they had us sorted in no time, bags stowed and up to the free coffee bar a level up to refuel us. We shopped for a while and upon return, all bags were in our rooms. Everything was very clean and we had a room with an amazing panorama view/balcony. There is a very lovely pool area that we sat for a few hours one afternoon as well. The breakfast room was also very pleasant - good offerings and service as well. We forgot to take note of the woman who was so helpful at the desk but the other kind person there was Yvan. They were an amazing team!
הגענו בלילה בשעה מאוחרת וגיוני פקיד הקבלה קבל אותו באופן יוצא דופן. תודה רבה לו על כך.
