Top Museo delle Culture Hotel Reviews

Lugano Center GuestHouse

10/10 Excellent

"The guesthouse is a beautiful old building and the staff person was kind and helpful. A guaranteed parking spot was $30. Street parking was sparce but also highly time constricted. The only funny thing is that the rooms are sparcly accessorize (lights, tables) by the cheapest light plastic furniture which kept tipping over. Otherwise the location is convenient."

Walter au Lac

10/10 Excellent

"We had a beautiful room with a balcony overlooking the lake — what a treat for us! Our room was comfortable and freshened up daily. Breakfast, local transportation and dining options were terrific. Highly recommend- especially for the location! Tips - Use the funicular to/from the train station. Be careful in the shower — awkward size."

ibis budget Lugano Paradiso

8/10 Good

"Nice hotel , near to the main side walk street"

Suitenhotel Parco Paradiso

10/10 Excellent

"A superb stay in Lugano. Suitenhotel Parco Paradiso is set in a quiet location with gorgeous mountain scenery, just a short walk down to the lakefront. Our room was spacious, comfortable, and spotless, paired with a modern, generously sized bathroom. The included breakfast was generous and varied, catering well to everyone (including families with young kids, who seemed right at home). Plus, having the Monte San Salvatore funicular within easy walking distance was a fantastic bonus for incredible area views. Would gladly stay here again!"

Best Western Hotel Bellevue Au Lac

8/10 Good

"Great location and a welcoming atmosphere. Friendly staff. We enjoyed the balcony with sea view. It would have been nice to have a Nespresso or similar coffeemaker in the room and to have a new bottle of water every day not just on the first day"

Continental Parkhotel

8/10 Good

"This hotel exceeded my expectations. The room was very charming, with a beautiful view of the Lake. It is exceptionally clean, and the front desk and bar staff are lovely. They had a very nice breakfast buffet in the morning with lots of selection."

Hotel Delfino

10/10 Excellent

"On lake and near train station"

10/10 Excellent
