Hotel&Hostel Montarina ★★

📍 Via Montarina 1, Lugano

"A very good experience. The staff were very attentive and went out of their way to make us feel comfortable. The rooms were fine, clean, and perfectly adequate. And as for the city, we were very comfortable; with public transport (free thanks to the Ticino Ticket) we easily reached all our points of interest."

Hotel Admiral Lugano
9.5 (52 reviews)

Hotel Admiral Lugano ★★★★

📍 Via Geretta 15, Lugano

"While the location was decent and convenient, my overall experience during my 3-night stay was disappointing. The biggest issue was the shower — the water pressure was extremely weak, to the point where showering felt like a chore rather than something refreshing after a long day. Soundproofing was also very poor. I could clearly hear my neighbour’s alarm, footsteps outside the room, and noise from upstairs, which affected my ability to properly rest. Breakfast was acceptable, though not particularly memorable. That said, the ladies working during breakfast were very friendly and welcoming, which was a nice touch. Overall, I would not choose to stay here again. I even considered changing hotels on my second night, but the inconvenience of packing and moving deterred me."

📍 Via Serafino Balestra 19, Lugano

"Reception closed at 5:00 p.m. Key left in a box. No more breakfast after 9:30 a.m. We were refused at 10:00 a.m. And no phone in the room. If something happens we can't reach anyone. Never again."

Novotel Lugano Paradiso ★★★★

📍 Viale S. Salvatore 11, Paradiso

"Overall good value for money. Good breakfast with smoked salmon, scrambled egg, sausages and various type of cheeses. Breakfast on weekend could be very crowded but food was replenished fast. Nice pool and gym for some exercise. Close to the lake and public transport."

Find Your Perfect Stay in Lugano by Travel Style

International au Lac Historic Lakeside Hotel Hotels in Lugano

International au Lac Historic Lakeside Hotel

"The hotel has a great location, right by the lake. If you have luggage, it's best to take bus number 4 directly from the train station to the hotel, as the train station is on a hilltop, and the hotel is a 650-meter downhill walk. The hotel staff at the front desk are exceptionally kind, very welcoming and attentive; importantly, the male staff are handsome and the female staff are beautiful. After check-in, remember to ask the hotel reception for a free public transport card, as they need to register your information and print it out, then you can ride the bus freely. The hotel breakfast is good, especially the window seats with a pleasant lake view. In such a beautiful setting as Lugano, taking a walk along the lake, enjoying the sunshine with relaxed locals, staying in such a historic and wonderful hotel, and meeting such wonderful people is truly a fantastic experience."

Best Western Hotel Bellevue Au Lac Hotels in Lugano

Best Western Hotel Bellevue Au Lac

"I stayed at Best Western Hotel Bellevue au Lac for just one night, but it was a truly pleasant experience. The staff were warm and welcoming, the room was spotless, and the location was perfect—right by the lake with beautiful views. The food was delicious, and overall, everything exceeded my expectations. I’d definitely love to return for a longer stay next time!"

Grand Hotel Villa Castagnola Hotels in Lugano

Grand Hotel Villa Castagnola

"Felt like a home away from home—if you were the great-grandchild of a wealthy aristocrat who owned a villa in one of the most immaculate places on earth. Grand, yes, but somehow still cozy-feeling. Staff treated us like family, service was above and beyond, location made everything easily accessible, but you won't have to go too far as you'd be content spending day after day lounging by the lake, pool, lawn, or just in the well-appointed rooms."

San Carlo Suite Hotels in Lugano

San Carlo Suite

"Very friendly and serviceminded Frontdesk staff both in the morning and in the evening. Clean room and great location close to trainstation and Lake Lugano. Breakfast staff very efficient and nice. Would love to come back to beautiful Lugano."

"We chose this hotel because of its proximity to the train station. And it lived up to our expectations. The room was warm and quiet. The bathroom was large. Excellent for a 2-star hotel!"

Colorado Hotel Hotels in Lugano

Colorado Hotel

"The hotel is well located in the center of Lugano, which is its great and unique strength. Unfortunately, the hotel and its services leave something to be desired. It was awarded its 3 stars in the 70s and unfortunately has not evolved with the times. (No visible renovation) Its furniture is damaged and more than outdated. It looks like a parody of a retirement home. Not to mention the smell of oil and tires that fills the hotel, which gives the impression of sleeping at a garage. We arrived at 9 p.m. at the hotel and asked to be able to park our vehicle for the night and the next day until 4 p.m. The lady who welcomed us asked us to pay the 15 francs because the parking is paid. And to check the next morning with her colleague to be able to leave the vehicle in the parking lot after the 11 a.m. checkout. (small clarification, we are between seasons so the hotel is almost empty). The next morning the gentleman at reception (who behaved more than dishonestly) told us that it was not possible. So I paid 15 francs for nothing knowing that at night the parking meters are deactivated in town. So the parking is free. The breakfast is of poor quality. There are no pastries or pastries. I suggest to any traveler to look for another hotel than this one, because given the prices there are much better for the same price, or even cheaper."
