What Guests Said About Lugano:

Take the cable cart to the top of the hill - St.
Take the cable cart to the top of the hill - St. Salvatore and if you have good weather - there awaits you and this is not an exaggeration by any means - one of the most amazing views I have ever seen in my life. Also we took a boat ride along the lake, which without any discount is about 40CHF for 2 hours ride, which is also very nice. There is a half tax discount if you have it for Switzerland. Miniature museum is nice as well. Lugano over all I think will stay in my heart :)RastislavSlovakia - 8.0Scored 8.0
2 nights would have been sufficient for us.
2 nights would have been sufficient for us. We took a day trip to Bellinzona and visited most of the popular attractions and had time to spare. We are not shoppers or people who like to hang out next to a pool and relax. If you are that type of person, the lake is beautiful and the shopping options are abundant.

We were pleasantly surprised at the Italian influence... it felt like we were in Italy as that was the predominant language, food, and people. The city was clean and safe. The people were proper and polite. We would highly recommend this place!AAnonymous - 10Scored 10

Lugano is an exceptional peaceful small city where you can enjoy the best views of the lake. Much better place to be compared to Como the busy crowded city. We totally loved this city and all the things that offers from good food and pleasant historic buildings as well as friendly people.

Lugano is beautiful!
Lugano is beautiful! Walking by the lake, sitting by it in chairs provided for free to the public, taking a boat ride, riding the funicular up to the mountain to see the views, all great! City bus transportation excellent.

Everything within walking distance or short bus/train/funicular away. Great beach, amazing scenery. Lots of great restaurants. So Many points of interest to see, we unfortunately didn’t have time to do it all, but we enjoyed taking the funicular to Monte Bre, boat excursion to Melide, train to Bellizone to see the castles… Guess we’ll need to come back to see the rest!StaceyCanada

- 8.5Scored 8.5Very GoodRated very good· 638 reviewsExcellent location high above Lake Lugano with views towards and of the lake. Very friendly and welcoming staff in the hotel and restaurant. Comfortable, good-sized room, very comfortable bed. Very clean throughout. The restaurant is excellent - great food, very helpful and friendly staff. There is a lovely terrace overlooking the lake. It is very easy to park at the hotel and we had no concerns about safety. If you are passing through as we were, there is no need to change any money into Swiss francs, as the hotel and restaurant accept cards.
Malcolm PhilipUnited Kingdom - From $255.65 per night8.7Scored 8.7ExcellentRated excellent· 2,130 reviewsWe were visiting our daughter at the Montarina, it was very convenient and close to everything. The staff is extremely friendly and helpful. Our room had a beautiful view of the the gardens, pool and a glimpse of the lake - all very pretty. Breakfast was included, it was a very diverse and full meal. The building itself is 150 years old, everything has been modernized and is as good as could be expected It’s not a 5 star hotel, but the service, staff and amenities are a very good and comfortable value

Toilet comes with standing shower!
Chen WeeBrunei - From $111.29 per night7.5Scored 7.5GoodRated good· 667 reviewsExcellent location. The hotel is located between Lugano and Morcote. It takes no more than 20 minutes to get to one or another town by bus. At the hotel you can get a free pass for all modes of transport (including the ferry) to move around the region. You can also get a ticket with discounts for visiting local museums. There is an Italian restaurant next to the hotel, but we didn't really like it.KiraUkraine
- 7.8Scored 7.8GoodRated good· 626 reviewsThe room was super clean, the bed was comfy, we had a great sleep. The staff is friendly and helpful. The hotel is conveniently located. The breakfast offer was quite rich (Just bear in mind that it is the Italian one, so mostly sweet things). We stayed for one night and after high season, though. I probably would look for a bigger room if I was about to stay in Lugano for longer holiday.AAnonymousPoland
