Lugano is a wonderful big town/small city.

Lugano is a wonderful big town/small city. Amazing views in all directions. So many amazing hikes available, so just soak up the energy of downtown. Hike along the lake to Gandria. You can bus (or funicular) up to Mt. Bre and hike in many directions from there. Ferry across the lake to Italy for lunch. So many possibilities!

Lugano is wonderful and a total paradise for cyclists!

Lugano is wonderful and a total paradise for cyclists! I come here all the time, I could not recommend more. Amazing routes around Lago di Lugano, Maggiore, Como… Delicious bakeries for tasty treats and refuelling whether Alpe di Neggia and Luino side or Menaggio Como side! Superb hotels and restaurants in Lugano to enjoy post-ride, also lovely chic (not sports) shopping! Absolutely recommend, but definitely prioritise Lugano Centro and lakeside, more expensive but so so worth it (Paradiso or inland horrible)

Lugano is a nice little town with all facilities and transportation points near at hand. Monte Bre and Monte San Salvatore are excellent points to visit with breathtaking panoramic views. We also did a day trip to Morcote which was also very nice specially Scherrer's Park. Back in Lugano, Parco Ciani and Piazza Riforma are excellent places to hang around and have meals. We had some excellent Ticinese food at La Tinera which is not to be missed if one wants to sample the regional cuisine.

A lovely town filled with shops and restaurants on the edge of a stunning lake. A great place to take a boat ride to nearby towns, go for walks or enjoy the lake with nice restaurants and shops. There are two gondolas nearby and it's a short train ride to the castles of Bellinzona or the activities near Monte Tamaro. A boat ride to Gandria is also lovely, as is the walk back to Lugano.

I got a room with a view which was very nice, the room was spacious, the bed was confortable the illumination was good and the shower very confortable. the place is in the top of the city there is a funicular that can take you down town, and walking is about 10 min it is steep but ok. The hotel is in front of the train station that can take you to lots of places, and the hotel gave us a code that let us use the train and ferry for free to go any were in Switzerland. The breakfast was very good and the service was great too.

Carolina on reception was fabulous. Sorted out free bus passes we didn’t know we were getting and even lent us a travel plug as our European one doesnt work in Switzerland. The tall smiley chap in the bar, sorry didn’t get his name was also fab pointing out some walks we shouldn’t miss. The staff are a credit to this hotel. Breakfast was very good with plenty of choice.

Perfect location, wonderful staff and lovely comfortable rooms. The views from the terrace on the 5th floor are pretty amazing, and the whole hotel has an 'old world' charm - not 'dated', as some other reviewers have described it. The place is spotless, and the room was very modern. We would stay here again if we were lucky enough to be back in Lugano.
