I felt like I was tucked away in a quiet spot with a fabulous view over Lugano Lake and the mountains from my small but functional balcony. The hotel definitely needs some updating, but the stunning views made up for it. The room, a superior single with a double bed, offered a serene retreat.

The hotel offers a stunning view of the lake but unfortunately had a strong smell of smoke in the room. The service was mixed, with some staff being polite and multilingual, while others were unhelpful and rude. The location is convenient, just a short walk from Paradiso train station, although slightly outside the central areas. The dining experience was tasty overall, with a variety of options, though breakfast hours were a bit limiting. The facilities were satisfactory, offering basic amenities.

I absolutely loved the location of this hotel, facing the stunning Lugano lake, which was incredibly beautiful. However, the rooms were in need of updating and some aspects like the bedding and pillows made my stay less comfortable. The dining experience was delicious, especially the freshly squeezed orange juice, but the bizarre silver/snakeskin style decor was off-putting. Service was excellent, with the staff taking care of everything, but unfortunately, there was an issue on the last day. Overall, a mixed experience with both positives and negatives.

Upon staying at this hotel, I found the rooms to be impeccably clean and well-furnished, though in need of refurbishment. While most items were provided, the absence of coffee and tea-making facilities was a letdown for a hotel of this standard. One of the receptionists was particularly rude, which was disappointing. The service was top-notch, albeit a hiccup on my last day. The location by the picturesque lake was a delight, although slightly distanced from central areas. The dining experience was sumptuous, especially with the Italian-style cappuccino. The facilities were satisfactory, but the overall pricing seemed steep for the value offered.

My stay at the hotel was a mix of positives and negatives. The rooms were well-furnished with a beautiful view of the lake, Monte Bre, and Lugano, but the bedding sheets, blankets instead of duvets, and hard kapok-filled pillows made my sleep uncomfortable. The heavy curtains blocking the air conditioner and the daytime use as a conference center gave a slightly odd feeling. The location was incredibly beautiful, right near the water offering stunning views, but the traffic noise in the busy seaside village was noticeable. The service was top-notch, with extremely helpful and accommodating staff. The dining experience was good with a variety of options, but not quite up to a 5-star level. Overall, the hotel offers value for money in a beautiful location.
