“This hotel stands out for its prime lakeside location in Lugano, enhanced by complimentary transport passes for exploring the area. Its family suite, complete with multiple rooms and bathrooms plus a generous terrace, easily accommodates larger groups. While the original wood floors may show some age with a bit of noise, the overall experience and rooftop Jacuzzi more than compensate.”
