10/10 Excellent
"I truly enjoyed my stay here! While at first I was a bit concerned it was on the "other" side of the station away from the town of Lugano the property had many redeeming features, like beautiful grounds and a lovely breakfast, that made it worth it. Yes there is some noise from the trains and you have to walk across the train parking lot to get there but it felt like a little oasis above Lugano and was a really pleasant stay. The pool, the bar, the restaurant were all nice and the room was very clear and cool (with AC) that was welcome for a hot September stay. Getting to and from the main part of Lugano by furnicular was a breeze. I'm glad I chose to stay here!"

"The room and the bathroom were clean and tidy with a small tv. We didn’t have air conditioning in our room although I noticed some of the other rooms did seem to be equipped with air conditioning. The rooms are quite basic, although ours had a balcony which was very welcome. The staff are helpful, the location is safe and very close to the train and funicular stations."
