The hotel sits right across street from Lake Lugano, so our room has a commanding view of the lake and mountains beyond. The staff couldn’t be nicer, everyone was going out of their ways to help. The suite we got was amazing, valet parking was a breeze, and hotel restaurant was also impressive! All in all a fantastic property, and we loved our stay. Definitely will come back.
