Top Orselina Hotel Reviews

LUGANODANTE Boutique & Lifestyle Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Perfect stay. Would not stay anywhere else in Lugano. Conveniently located at the bottom on a funicular stop from the main train station. Will be recommending to friends in the future."

Kurhaus Cademario Hotel & SPA

10/10 Excellent

"Excellent hotel with the BEST views. Excellent staff. All were exceptionally helpful, especially Waleed at the front desk."

Acquarello Swiss Quality Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Friendly and helpful staff, great location qnd value"

Villa Principe Leopoldo

10/10 Excellent

"Fabulous boutique hotel. All the staff were exceedingly courteous and helpful. Rooms have incredible views above Lake Lugano and it wasn’t an issue about not being located in the actual town itself, in fact it was a positive, with the hotel running a courtesy shuttle minibus down to the town and back 3 times daily. Restaurant absolutely wonderful with incredible food and wine choices. Bar offers an alternative more relaxed eating option either inside or outside on the lovely terrace. Would highly recommend."

Best Western Hotel Bellevue Au Lac

10/10 Excellent

"The hotel was excellent choice, I’m very happy with my stay. The front desk Agent Barbara she was out standing and helpful. The room had the best view ever, I could see the sunrise from my bed. I will go back and recommend people to this hotel. Thank you Best-western team ."

Hotel Funicolare

10/10 Excellent

"We had a wonderful stay at Hotel Funicolare. We stayed in a family room, which was absolutely massive, with plenty of space for all of us and a very comfortable stay. The views were amazing and really added to the experience. We also had dinner at the hotel one evening and breakfast during our stay. The menu was varied, with plenty of choice, and everything we had was enjoyable. All of the staff were lovely and welcoming, but Luana at reception deserves a special mention. She was incredibly kind and helpful. We had unfortunately made a mistake when booking and selected the wrong dates, but Luana was so gracious and understanding and went out of her way to help us resolve the issue. Her kindness made a stressful situation so much easier. Overall, we really enjoyed our stay and would happily recommend Hotel Funicolare. Spacious rooms, beautiful views, good food and genuinely wonderful staff."

Hotel Delfino

8/10 Good

"Location was good, right by a bus stop and a 10 minute walk up and down to Franklin University. One staff member who was a male at front desk was very friendly everyone else was fair. They advertise self service laundry but it is not available which was very disappointing as that is one feature of why I choose this hotel. Breakfast was ok, it entailed scrambled or boiled eggs, breads, yogurt, and some fruit and cereals. Loved the fresh OJ. Facilities inside are warm with no A/C expect in your room. Amenities are lacking as there was only a small bar soap and a multipurpose shampoo, we almost fell a few times in the shower and there are no mats. Make sure to bring an umbrella as soon it rains often and this hotel did not have loaners. If you like a 70’s 80’s vibe you’ll like the decor. We will be making many trips to Lugano over the next 4 years, probably won’t stay here again."

Hotel Arcadia Locarno, a Trademark Collection by Wyndham

Hampton By Hilton Locarno

10/10 Excellent

"For the Locarno Film Festival, the location was excellent with both free city buses and the festival shuttle coming right in front of the hotel. Rooms were in excellent shape, and the breakfast was very good. Staff were helpful and very friendly!"
