A modern boutique hotel with stunning views overlooking lake Lugano. Our room was well appointed, modern and large with comfortable soft beds. The hotel restaurant is of high quality with a modern twist. Breakfast on the terrace is a joy. Charging is available in the covered car park. The pool area was superb.

Exceptional view over Lugano; friendly, professional staff; premises slightly old fashioned yet all modern conveniences were present; very, very well maintained, clean and cosy. Room had a huge balcony overlooking the lake and the town with an area in front of the windows with a sofa where you could sit down and relax. Very silent location. Free parking space.

The view of the lake is stunning, unobstructed and possibly even better in real life than the picture can give away. If you’re in for the view this is the place.

Acquarello Swiss Quality Hotel

Hotel in Lugano City-Centre, Lugano

The Hotel Acquarello is located in the Old Town of Lugano, right at the lower terminus of the funicular connecting the centre to the main railway station.

A
Ava
From

You simply can’t beat the value for money this hotel offers. The location is unbeatable — right next to the funicular that connects directly to the Lugano main SBB station (and possibly other destinations, though I only used it for the station). There’s also a wide variety of restaurants and shops just steps from the hotel. Despite its compact size, the hotel has a great little gym, and my room — which faced the funicular — was surprisingly quiet. I slept like a baby! If you're a light sleeper, the hotel thoughtfully provides earplugs and a welcome chocolate in the room. A really nice touch: I received the Ticino Ticket by email on the day of arrival, giving me free access to most public transportation and discounts at various attractions. But what truly made my stay exceptional was the incredibly friendly and helpful staff at the front desk. Thank you all for your kindness, thoughtful touches, and excellent recommendations — you made my visit even more memorable!

We loved our stay at the Locanda! The location is ideal if you want to enjoy the magic of Castagnola. Lugano's lively centre is about a 30-minute walk away, so the hotel is located in a much quieter part of the city, with charming streets and fantastic views. There is also a public transport stop right next to the hotel. The beds are very comfortable, everything is clean and tidy. Hotel staff is the best! We felt really welcomed. They also helped us with recommendations on what to see and what not to miss. Check-in process and all other communucation with them was super easy. A wonderful experience! We will definitely recommend this hotel to others.

The location was excellent as we were in the heart of Lugano with easy access to city center. The beds and pillows were very comfortable. The A/C worked great and we were very comfortable sleeping at night. The staff was very helpful when we needed assistance.
