    I had a booking problem - later solved by Booking.com and could not get in direct contact with the front desk.

    The hotel has a sauna, a small swimming pool, and a small gym. There is also the possibility of parking (for a fee). Breakfast offers plenty of choice.

    Swimming pool was not the best. As we were there in the week the building site next door was a little noisy at times. Hotel in general could do with a little updating.

    Excellent location, secure parking garage, nicely air conditioned rooms, friendly staff

    I think that the junior suites should overlook the lake and not the restaurant roof and pool.

    Location , location , location. Close to all amenities- lake directly opposite the hotel.

    Parking garage not included with the cost of the stay. Came as a surprise when the bill was paid. 25 CHF per night just to park a car is not cheap!

    Good location, easy to walk to the centre or go up the mountain.

    The main street just outside is exceptionally busy and noisy - but it forms part of the Lugano vibe. The balconies are very close to 1 another. I was on the phone 1 evening, telling my family back in SA about our day and my lady-neighbour actually chirped me for talking too much - yet she and her husband had endless conversations on the balcony till late in the evening. He also smoked and that smell came into our room, so when they were outside we had to keep our doors closed.

    The view from our balcony onto Lake Lugano was amazing! This is a stunning hotel! Beautiful room, spacious & tastefully decorated. Spacious bathroom - with big windows for ventalation Amazing breakfast! Nice pool area. The staff were so kind, friendly & helpful. Nothing was too much to ask. The bus stop just outside of the hotel helped a lot, getting us to the Paradiso train station & back. (We didn't know this at first & arrived at Lugano station, taking bus #2 and had to walk quite a distance with our luggage to get to the hotel) Tip: Travel on to Paradiso station & take bus #1

    Way better than you'd expect from a Best Western; this is a real hotel, and a nice one.

    The AC was pretty weak, which wasn't ideal in the middle of a heatwave - even with it on max the rooms were pretty hot. The coffees at the breakfast were from a machine, so not great.

    The hotel is very nice (despite being branded a Best Western). The staff was great - super helpful and friendly, and the location is pretty amazing (right on the waterfront, less than a block from the ferry, just a few blocks from downtown in one direction, and just a few blocks from the ride to the top of the mountain on the other). While there isn't a lot of parking, we were able to grab a spot right in front of the hotel. The breakfast was tasty and had a bunch of options; not the best we had but a nice one and worth indulging in. We had balconies overlooking the lake and the view was great.

    Guests of the hotel can park their cars in the parking garage adjacent to the hotel. However, a hotel staff member has to open and close the garage when one wants to park or retrieve one's car.

    The location of the hotel is second to none. I can view lake Lugano from the balcony of my room. In addition, the hotel is close to Lugano center and Parco Cianii. The hotel also serves very good breakfast.
