Wonderful lakeside location in centre of Lugano. Paying the bit extra for a room with lake view was definitely worthwhile. Friendly and efficient staff at check-in and at breakfast.

The location of Studios 1 and 3 is excellent - just down the steps from the Cathedral of Saint Lawrence (the bells start at 7:00 and stop at 20:00). They both have air conditioning. Very clean and quiet, with the exception of some street noise (people, no cars). Oil, salt, dishwashing liquid, dishwasher tablets, sponge and kitchen towels were provided. Staff were friendly and professional, especially when I locked my keys in the room and they had to come down and help! It is close to the station (5 minutes walk) but it's up a steep hill that is mostly ramp with some stairs.

Location was perfect. Once we were told to get on the funicular. After getting off the train. Hotel was about 80 metres from funicular.
Room was a squeeze as it was a very old building but had a lot of character and we loved that.

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 :)

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.

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.

Excellent location, the hotel is an a wonderful palace . The view of the marvelous lake and mountains from my room is wonderful . The room very nicely decorated , the bed so comfortable. Excellent restaurants , the breakfast as well there was a big variety with nice staff as well . my stay in hotel Royal splendid was fabulous . I highly recommend it . Grazie mille 💐
SLNH aka Hotel Nassa is well situated in city centre with a Lakeside frontage. From outside the train station Lugano Stazione, there's bus taking U to bus stop outside Hotel Nassa or like Us, took the Funicular(free) down n walked thru the City Centre/ Old Town via Via Nassa to the hotel.
Hotel's location is most convenient to get to all attractions either by walks or buses, which are also free. Hotel's very clean n front office services were excellent n not forgetting the buffet breakfast n the lovely serving Lady.
The staff and the owner of the hotel are very helpful and they upgrade the room once they know that the Wifi is not good in our reserved room.
The location in Paradiso is highly appreciated. The location is very close to the train station. It saves time and money to go to different important places like Monte San Salvatore, Swissmanutour, lake toures,....
The room was comfortable with a perfect balcony but the pillows has to be less soft.
When I will go back to lugano I will reserve again a room in this hotel.
The location of the hotel is ideal, directly overlooking Lake Lugano in the Paradiso section of town, and a pleasant 15 minute walk to the center. The building itself is gorgeous and while the hotel itself is pretty run down (it has a 1970s feel), the lack of any attempt to make it more luxurious means it is good value for money. In fact, the decor throughout the hotel looks like the owners spent a lot of time rummaging around at yard sales looking for an assortment of kitsch items.
We requested a balcony with a Lake Lugano view and it was perfect, however there is a main road between our room and the lake. We like to keep the windows open, so there was traffic noise, but it did not bother us. The hotel was a quick walk to the train station and the boat cruises were right across the street. Restaurants everywhere and shopping galore. Breakfast was very good.
The warmth of the staff is exceeded only by the quiet, clean, comfort and beautiful location. We got in late and the lovely staff in the restaurant stayed open and ensured we were fed. We then walked from the hotel to the nearby park to see the lake within 2 minutes. A very cozy sleep and super convenient for train travelers needing a stop in Lugano or folks visiting longer!
The apartment was so clean. I’ve been to a couple of apartments in Switzerland and this is without doubt the cleanest I’ve been to. It has everything you need. There is nothing missing from the kitchen. Easy check-in. The apartment is a 20 min walk from Lugano Centro. Ana was so kind and such a nice host. Thank you so much!
The hotel is not “charming” to look at compared to other places in Lugano but it’s ideally located, the room was modern and spotlessly clean, the bed was excellent and the facilities perfect. The staff were extremely kind and helpful and the breakfast was good. I definitely recommend this hotel!
Breakfast was brilliant, so much choice! Staff were super friendly. Could have my dog overnight for a 20chf supplement and they even gave us a puppy goodie bag. The bed was very comfy and everywhere was exceptionally clean. The hotel is a lovely walk along the promenade from Lugano to Paradiso.
It was our first time in Switzerland and we loved it! The apartment was very cozy and well-equipped. We were able to cook some meals in the kitchen and even do our laundry. What a treat! The city view from the apartment was gorgeous. Lugano is a beautiful city and we hope to come back soon.
The hotel is exactly the name :) it's just across the central bus stop. Staffs are super friendly, and makes your stay feel homely. The room is super small though. But overall had a great time in Lugano. Would defo stay at this hotel again!
Breakfast did not have s lot of options. The location was ok. I thought I was getting a room with a lake view, but no.
It is a beautiful hotel with an elegant feel. A restaurant outside my window was very loud until late.
The views and location were perfect and the size of the rooms were great. The service was friendly and attentive. Easy walk into the old town of Lugano and lakeside. The spa was really good with indoor pool and jacuzzi.
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.
We stayed at San Carlo Suite, which is a different building than the hotel where the reception and breakfast are. The room was comfortable but a bit smaller. The location was perfect to visit Lugano!
Clean, modern hotel. Comfortable bed. Excellent location with a short walk to Paradiso railway station, shops, bars restaurants etc and a lovely walk along the lakeside into Lugano city centre.
Hotel building and location, view of lake and mountains; very nice room, and bathroom - spacious and comfortable. Helpful staff. I was able to really relax and enjoy my stay in Lugano.
