The main picture on Expedia labeled 'balcony' and showing the lake through an archway is not of the hotel premises. It's a different building about two or three blocks away.

Easy walk from train station to funicular and then hotel! Many dining options near or at the hotel restaurant. Staff was great! One evening we had leftovers which they refrigerated for us . We played cards and ate leftovers the next night in the tv salon. Room is small but well organized.

We had a nice room with a great bathroom. The room seemed newly renovated. The hotel was being renovated during our stay but was not a problem at all. The staff was friendly and breakfast was really good. It is a short walk to the water and to shopping/ dining. The bus stops right out front making it convienidnt to get to locations such as Mount Bre and Mount San Salvador.

Central Lugano
This was 2nd time to stay at this hotel and it was still as good as the 1st. It is nicely located to be able to get to any part of the city in 10-15 mins tops. Rooms are simple and nice. Clean private bathroom and the staff was eager to help, if needed. Nice large breakfast option if you like that to start your day.
