Residence Principe Leopoldo

Hidden in a tranquil park amid lovely flower-filled gardens, the Residence Principe Leopoldo, with its classical style and ample space, evokes the feeling of being on a Tuscan holiday.

A few steps away from the main villa, the 38 bedrooms of the residence are very spacious, designed in a country-house style and, thanks to the surrounding nature, its guests feel perfectly at ease. Guests enjoy the same deluxe service, comfort and amenities as in the main villa, where they can admire the fascinating view over the lake and the city.

Hotel information

In the smart residential neighbourhood where Hermann Hesse lived, 2 km from downtown Lugano, the Villa Principe Leopoldo, with the Residence Principe Leopoldo across the street, was moulded into an upmarket resort that is among Lugano's finest accommodations. More Italian than Swiss in spirit, the resort comprises a two-story mediterranean villa and a more modern residential building.

Food & beverage

The Principe Leopoldo Restaurant offers a very refined setting, with tapestry walls, very comfortable chairs, lovely linens, marble floors and unobstrusive lighting.

The Bar del Principe, renovated in 2000, is divided in different sections, all with tapestry walls and large comfortable armchairs, the whole making you feel at home. Enjoy musical entertainment every evening and "al fresco" cocktails on the panoramic terrace in this friendly, refined atmosphere.

The Limonaia is a winter garden that enchants you with its brightness and its light salmon colouring. On its magnificent terrace, overlooking the bay of Lugano and the heated pool, you can enjoy "al fresco" breakfast and lunch snacks in the warmer months.

The Gazebo, the natural extension of the Principe Leopoldo gourmet restaurant, offers a view over the panorama terrace and the lake, and serves dinner "al fresco".

The Café Leopoldo, located in the residence, is the ideal place for informal meals in a casual atmosphere and offers regional and Italian cuisine.

Room information

The 38 air-conditioned rooms of the residence, completely renewed in 2001, are elegant and gracious, and overlook the garden or the park. They offer all the necessary tranquillity to please any guest looking for well-deserved relaxation. All rooms either have areas separated by a floor level difference, separating the sleeping from the sitting area, or sometimes a separate bedroom.

Area information

There are many reasons why Switzerland's sunny corner is so special, but above all, it is the ambiance that is like nowhere else in the country. Some people call it "the Ticino touch". Nowhere is this more apparent than in the Villa Principe Leopoldo & Residence, where a historic building and a majestic setting are combined with the very highest standards of accommodation, service, modern facilities and cuisine.

Travel information

Garage parking is possible at an additional cost.

Important information

Reservations for the gourmet restaurant Principe Leopoldo and treatments at the Kiso Spa, located in the main villa, are mandatory and should be arranged prior to arrival by contacting the hotel.

In winter the Café Leopoldo remains closed for lunch and dinner.

Please note that credit cards from third parties are not accepted.
