    Beautiful area in the hills behind Lugano. Trails easily accessible from the hotel. Local food options at restaurant, being a vegetarian they had some good options for a remote location.

    It is a fantastic hotel up in the mountains with a breathtaking view and twisted road to come up. We were with motorcycles, so the road is a dream for the experienced rider! The hotel is very cosy and the hosts are great! The breakfast was fantastic, so was the dinner. The chef is excellent there! Very clean. Highly recommended!

    There wasn't anything we didn't like over there.

    Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We’re truly delighted to hear that you enjoyed your stay with us from the ride up through the mountains to the views, the food, and the hospitality. It means a lot to us that everything met your expectations, and we’ll be sure to share your kind words with the whole team, especially our chef. We hope to welcome you back again soon for another fantastic experience! Warm regards, Marco

    Cool hotel, friendly stuff Very clean Comfortable beds

    Getting to the hotel from the centers is tiring due to the road. You need to drive up mountains to get there. You should take this into consideration. I didn't like the breakfast. There was nothing to eat. Just jars of jam and butter, coffee, and cornflakes The breakfast price is high for what they offer.

    Property response:

    Thank you for your feedback. We’re glad to hear you appreciated the cleanliness, comfort, and friendliness of our staff. We’re sorry to hear that the breakfast and the location didn’t meet your expectations. We understand the drive can be challenging due to our mountain setting, but many guests enjoy the peaceful surroundings and views it offers. Regarding breakfast, we’ll definitely take your comments into account as we continue to improve our services. Your input is valuable, and we hope to welcome you again in the future.

    The food, both for breakfast and evening dinner was of a high standard and well presented. The staff were very friendly and helpful. The position is great to explore the Alto Malcanatone.

    Nothing much. Eggs for breakfast?

    It was very clean, the bed was super comfy, the breakfast was varied and had everything we needed. The evening meals were amazing. The staff were super friendly and accommodating despite our inability to speak Swiss Italian!

    Would have liked tea and coffee making facilities in the room. The Mountain View wasn’t quite a mountain but it didn’t matter or make a difference to the stay.

    The hotel is situated in a small mountain village with great views but twisty roads. The room was spacious enough for one with a large en-suite which had a good shower. There is a restaurant which was very busy and the food was excellent. Breakfast was continental with a decent choice. The staff were pleasant, friendly and very helpful. I’d happily stay here again.

    I found the duvet a bit heavy for the warm weather but that was probably just me.
