It is a special place in a wonderful location and we had fabulous views from our balcony. The walk to Morcote took under 30 minutes with lovely views but you need to wear trainers as the path is uneven. We also enjoyed walking to the castle through the vineyards and exploring lake Lugano by bus and boat.

They helped us with lunch the day before and the day of our wedding, and they facilitated our vendors as we prepared for the big day. The location is magical too, and it is one of the most peaceful places that I have been. Thank you so much to everyone at the Relais who made our wedding experience so incredible. We're forever grateful! ##### DANIEL Stayed 2 nights in Aug 2025 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### ROANNA 9 Oct 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Loved this slice of heaven, away from the crowds of Lugano but yet convenient to get to by car. The front desk service was amazing - the girls were so friendly and helpful. Daily breakfast was clean tasting and delicious. The hotel grounds are so thoughtful, well designed and aesthetic. Despite it being an old building, it did not feel cold like some old buildings can - Insulation done right! Highly recommend to anyone who loves a quaint boutique hotel with great service and thoughtful spaces. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/6814ab5a-a8ef-4ea8-9c51-c32ae0bfe46b-1760053810608.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/436e5117-7f42-4156-9d5f-d4f1ee5ef47c-1760053811373.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/f147be2f-c277-4b33-b09f-903933010b74-1760053811630.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/094c4b82-d3b3-4dd2-b3e0-a89aa0fd913e-1760053811807.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### ROANNA Stayed 3 nights in Oct 2025 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Bogdan 2 Jan 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Amazing Amazing, well worth it for the views, service, breakfast ##### Bogdan Stayed 2 nights in Dec 2023 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Oliver 3 Jun 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Unique Boutique Hotel with beautiful interior design!

Es hat nur 12 Zimmer, und das Ambiente ist dadurch sehr exklusiv. Ich denke, das erklärt auch den etwas höheren Preis. Die Renovierung wurde mit sehr viel Liebe zum Detail ausgeführt. Wir waren in den Hauseigenen Weinbergen spazieren und haben von dort aus den Sonnenuntergang angesehen. Das war unser persönliches Highlight! Diesmal haben wir nur eine Nacht im Relais übernachtet, und daher kaum etwas der zahlreichen Angebote (Wine Tastings, etc.) genutzt. Das nächste Mal wollen wir aber länger kommen und vieles davon ausprobieren. Der hauseigene Wein hat uns hervorragend geschmeckt. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Dec 2024 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Guido 3 Nov 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Hotel Das Hotel ist einer der schönsten in dem wir waren, die Lage ist traumhaft mit Blick auf dem See und das Personal immer hilfsbereit und der Wein unglaublich lecker. ##### Guido Stayed 3 nights in Oct 2024 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Airton Luís 11 Jul 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Foi tudo perfeito.

Es gibt eine Selfservice Bar, wo man den eigenen Wein trinken kann. Zimmer sind sehr sauber, nicht sehr gross, aber genügt für eine Kurzaufenthalt. Es war etwas kühl, dies ist jedoch vermutlich aufgrund der Wetterumstellung und Beginn der Heizperiode geschuldet. Aktuell befindet sich das Haus nebenan im Umbau, was mich allerdings nicht gestört hat, da die Arbeiten erst nach 8.00 Uhr losgingen. Overall, definitiv empfehlenswert. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/730A6F7D27A4DF459F21AAC973B3F8D0610903ED1697540453461.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/62687F40DF60570FD41C19E61F8BD980989165781697540445494.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/5BAAF2A4AC523EA0BD1C905DF3BEBCF40DB45B231697540452953.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/BDF3CD6D6DCE59E391C98228CF88030DBF943EE51697540453413.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Nicolle Stayed 1 night in Oct 2023 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Hanspeter 30 Sept 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Wirklich eine Oase - jederzeit wieder!

Wenn man jedoch nicht so wanderlustig ist könnte es etwas “langweilig” werden. Es bietet die Möglichkeit für tolle Spaziergänge, auch zum eigenen Weingut des Hotels. Allerdings gibt es nicht viele andere Aktivitätsmoeglichkeiten. Das essen im eigenen Restaurant ist hervorragend, mit kleiner Karte! Allerdings gibt es in fuss läufiger Umgebung keine Alternativen was einem bewusst seien sollte. Für 2 Nächte auf jedenfall eine Reise wert! ##### Vivien Stayed 2 nights in Oct 2021 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Karin 25 Jun 2020 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Fantastisches Hotel mit Traumaussicht!!!
