It was by the mountain area and so quite which suite it me and my friends. The view was so amazing. Also fresh breakfast was included and was so great. Reasonable price and %100 will be my place to stay whenever coming back to Lugano. Grazie
We stayed two nights in June. The owners could not have been more accommodating. Continental breakfast was included and both lunch and dinner were available in their restaurant. The views from our room, the pools deck and the restaurant were stunning. Bus transportation into Lugano runs hourly. A truly enjoyable stay!
