Good Hotel Close to Railway Station.

Hotel staff friendly, room was comfortable and lovely terrace off the room. No air conditioning, made the room very hot even with the fan supplied. Did not realise when booking that air conditioning was not included. Also the price of bottled water in the restaurant at dinner was outrageous. CH7.50. a bottle. I questioned the waiter and he said drink beer much cheaper and it was .CH4.00 a bottle. We were told that water is very expensive in Lugano, but in the Supermarket it was CH.85 a bottle. So how does that add up.

Handy to the station and town.

Pros: The restricted view of the lake, having breakfast in the garden and the staff were very nice.
Cons: Without tearing down the hotel I don't think the room sizes could be increased.
Location: Location is on top of the town and very handy to all activities but be warned, Lugano is located at the bottom of very steep hills.
We had the smallest room we have ever experienced in Europe!!
