Walter au Lac
A very good place to stay for a few days in Lugano, right in front of the beautiful lake and in the best area of the city for exploring on foot. The staff were extremely kind, and the room was very comfortable, except for the bathtub, whose base is curved rather than flat, making it somewhat unsafe ...

Hotel Barchetta Excelsior
Loved everything except the extra thin walls. We would likely stay again and hope for quieter neighbours next time. Great location and fantastic view from a lake facing room
