A bit better than a park bench
Filthy with attitude. Should be condemned. Staff complain more than the guests. Rooms are so outdated the tv was a tube with a 12" screen.

Old hotel in good neighbourhood
The room furniture is old. The TV is very old and small. The hotel should provide breakfast to the guests.

Terrible service - never again
Most annooying to me was that would only change the sheets every seven days. I did not really clean the room. The location was good just near the cable car up to the mountain San Salvador and close to the lake - relatively quiet. The outside pool looked appealing to me, whereas the inside pool looked a bit run down - not very inviting.

Worth the money
For an expensive town this is a very reasonable option, yes it's an older hotel but it serves it's purpose, clean comfortable and centrally located. Staff are a really bonus and very helpful. I stay in many hotels from economical to high end, I was in town on business this was a perfect option for me. I will use it again if in town.

next to S. Salvatore tram station
5 min. walk either to Paradiso train station( hike up a hill) or take no#2 bus in front of Migro? grocery store. Very helpful staff and room is clean, a bit dated and major renovation underway across the street, very noisy by 9am, also curtain is flimsy and very red, sun comes right into the room. Nice balcony with table and chairs to relax if your neighbours are not out there too. Free Wifi only at lobby. Few restaurants down the streets, all hotels are on the same block.

Amazing Service
We are very satisfied with this hotel. The reception service is exceptional. They gave us choice for different hotel room. Nice view of the mountains. Very close to Lugano Central station and lake lugano. Just at the bottom of monte-Salvator. Overall very nice.

Aged and tired out!
Although the hotel staff and location were good the facilities were not up to current standards. Until a major facelift is performed I would not recommend this hotel.

mediocre hotel
- Parking is not included (15 CHF per night). The hotel practices "overbooking" for the parking, even though we paid for it had to park outside when getting back to the hotel late at night, the parking was full. - Late at night, there was sometimes no one at the reception, we had to just walk in to get our key. Incidentally, we could have gotten any key, at any time of the day for that matter, different receptionists and no control whatsoever to check if you were not a thief. - The water in the room shower was cold then lukewarm then warm finally after letting the water run for a loooong time, every day. - The fitness were just a few rusty machines laid in the corridor... - The "breakfast buffet" was nothing more than a lowly "continental breakfast" (not much more than jam on toasts, and some fruit salad from a can). - No fridge/minibar in the room - The hotel location was hard to find - In the room, green blinking light right above the bed, a bit annoying - bed too short - chlore smell in the lobby corridor from the inner swimming pool - the doors of the wardrobe were squeaking - sauna was ok, but you have to ask reception first, have 7 CHF added to your bill and wait for them to set it up - the roof terrace was nice.

Letztes Jahr ok. Dieses Jahr nein.
Für eine Nacht ok. Wir waren schon letztes Jahr da und reisten eigentlich zufrieden ab. Dieses mal jedoch überhaupt nicht. Abgesehen davon, dass es im Zimmer keinen Fernseher hatte (und dies stand in der Beschreibung) und das Wlan auch nicht funtionierte, war der Eingang des Hotels neben einer Baustelle durch die Garage (das eigentliche Hotel wird nicht mehr genutzt und deshalb ist der Weg zur Reception etwas kritisch). Schade fanden wir auch, dass es kein Frühstück mehr im Angebot hatte. Sauberkeit und Komfort ok. Service naja... Bisschen unfreundlich. Wenn das Hotel dann wieder renoviert ist und der Eingang nicht mehr durch die Garage führen wird, überlegen wir uns nochmal einen Aufenthalt dort, bis dahin aber nein danke.

Un peccato...
Capisco che a Lugano i prezzi sono alti, ma questo non aveva nemneno la tv in camera. Si tratta di un albergo decisamente vecchio. Credo ne stiano costruendo uno nuovo li vicino. Speriamo bene. Personale molto cortese

kleines einfaches sehr sauberes Zimmer
Das Zimmer ist klein und einfach eingerichtet und sehr sauber.Handtücher werden jeden Tag gewechselt. Sehr freundliche und hilfsbereite Dame an der Reception. Von unserem Zimmer Balkon war die Aussicht super über den Luganersee. Morgen um halb acht beginnt leider momentan starker Baulärm. Nicht für Langschläfer geeignet.Wir profitierten von einem Last Minute Preis.Das Preis-Leistungsverhältnis war sehr gut.Wir würden das Zimmer mit Aussicht wieder buchen.

Die Parkmöglichkeiten sind beim Hotel sind sehr eingeschränkt. Wir konnten aber entgegenkommenderweise in der Garage parkieren. Leider bestand keine Möglichkeit, das Morgenessen im Hotel einzunehmen, obwohl wir am Abend bei der Ankunft die Antwort erhaben haben, dass das möglich ist. Das Hotel hat uns dann ein nahe gelegenes Café empfohlen. Diese Empfehlung war gut.

Good location
We staid in this hotel for one night. The location is great, next to cable car station to Monte San Salvatore and very close to train station Paradiso. The hotel is quite old and needs renovation. But it was clean and ok to stay for a night, price value ok for this city.

景色の良いルガーノ湖まで近いホテル
最寄のLugano Paradiso駅から徒歩3分とアクセスが良く、夜ルガーノ湖まで3分程度歩くと右には山に、左にはルガーノの街に輝く夜景が見えてとても綺麗でした。フロントは英語が良く通じ、便利でした。部屋は一人で宿泊しましたが、十分広く、綺麗で、シャワールームも綺麗でした。ほとんどの施設には満足でしたが、Wi-Fiがフロント限定で部屋で使えなかったので評価2とさせていただきました。
