  Amazing comfortable memorable stay in Lugano!

  Liked: Beautiful view. Comfortable spacious room. Nice balcony. Very good breakfast. Lots of complementary water. The pool and spa. The staff we’re very friendly.

  Disliked: Having to empty out the fridge to put our own things in. We would’ve liked it if the spa pool were open a bit later.

  Uncomfortable room experience when we had high expectations 3 nights Aus$3850

  Liked: Location, pool, gardens, view from our room and breakfast.

  Disliked: Unfortunately for just under $1400 per night we did not get a room with adequate aircon. It was hot here it has been for 5 weeks in Europe. Every other area and hotel we have stayed in had aircon that kept us cool in 40plus temperature. Our fridge also didn’t cool anything in it. So we constantly carried ice to our room. This is unexceptable when charging the rates they do. Europe is hot in summer. Up grade all you aircons in rooms. Guest shouldn’t have to sleep under wet towels to be able to stay cool thru the night.
