Take the cable cart to the top of the hill - St.
Take the cable cart to the top of the hill - St. Salvatore and if you have good weather - there awaits you and this is not an exaggeration by any means - one of the most amazing views I have ever seen in my life. Also we took a boat ride along the lake, which without any discount is about 40CHF for 2 hours ride, which is also very nice. There is a half tax discount if you have it for Switzerland. Miniature museum is nice as well. Lugano over all I think will stay in my heart :)RastislavSlovakia - 8.0Scored 8.0
2 nights would have been sufficient for us.
2 nights would have been sufficient for us. We took a day trip to Bellinzona and visited most of the popular attractions and had time to spare. We are not shoppers or people who like to hang out next to a pool and relax. If you are that type of person, the lake is beautiful and the shopping options are abundant.

We were pleasantly surprised at the Italian influence... it felt like we were in Italy as that was the predominant language, food, and people. The city was clean and safe. The people were proper and polite. We would highly recommend this place!AAnonymous - 10Scored 10

Lugano is an exceptional peaceful small city where you can enjoy the best views of the lake. Much better place to be compared to Como the busy crowded city. We totally loved this city and all the things that offers from good food and pleasant historic buildings as well as friendly people.

Lugano is beautiful!
Lugano is beautiful! Walking by the lake, sitting by it in chairs provided for free to the public, taking a boat ride, riding the funicular up to the mountain to see the views, all great! City bus transportation excellent.

- 8.5Scored 8.5Very GoodRated very good· 614 reviewsExcellent location high above Lake Lugano with views towards and of the lake. Very friendly and welcoming staff in the hotel and restaurant. Comfortable, good-sized room, very comfortable bed. Very clean throughout. The restaurant is excellent - great food, very helpful and friendly staff. There is a lovely terrace overlooking the lake. It is very easy to park at the hotel and we had no concerns about safety. If you are passing through as we were, there is no need to change any money into Swiss francs, as the hotel and restaurant accept cards.
Malcolm PhilipUnited Kingdom - From $158.22 per night8.1Scored 8.1Very GoodRated very good· 1,171 reviewsWe were surprised by how big the room was! We didn’t realize it was basically a 2 bdrm/ 2 bathroom place. It was huge! We also loved the view!! The view is what made us choose Hotel Colibri. The pool area was also really nice! It was a little too cold for our girls to take a dip but I’m sure it would’ve warmed up by the afternoon. The bus stop is right out front and the bus comes often! It was an easy 15 min. ride into Lugano. So worth it to stay up here for the view and it’s also nice and quiet in this area vs Lugano.
JamiUnited States of America - From $214.80 per night8.6Scored 8.6ExcellentRated excellent· 1,250 reviewsThis little hotel, which I booked at the last minute with few expectations, turned out to be great. The rooms are actually bigger than they look in the photos, and they were clean and well appointed. The staff was kind and helpful. The location is great, just a 15 minute walk to the centre of town, or an extremely short bus ride. (Staying at the hotel comes with a free bus pass, and the bus stop is just 200 m away. Buses run frequently and on time – this is Switzerland after all.) Breakfast was good, too.RolandoItaly
- From $254.90 per night8.7Scored 8.7ExcellentRated excellent· 2,103 reviewsNice hotel above Lugano, yet easily reachable via the furnicular at the train station. Bright and sunny room overlooking the lake, with balcony (shared with room next door). Firm bed. Excellent lighting, but a bit difficult to figure out. Ample closet space. Very functional bathroom. Breakfast delicious. Pool fantastic, with plenty of chairs and beds, towel service, and a great bar. Easy parking.JohannesGermany

Staff was spectacular; room was huge with spacious bedrooms and sitting area. Balcony was amazing with a four top table and the best view you could have of Lake Lugano. The regular rooms are much smaller but the hotel and staff, and the two bedroom suite was superb. Thank you!

- From $256 per night8.5Scored 8.5Very GoodRated very good· 928 reviewsRoom was very clean and had a/c which was a welcomed bonus. The hotel does offer a breakfast option. They also provide some discounts for other restaurants in the area. It was an easy walk from the train station in Lugano (all down hill).

BriannaCanada - 7.2Scored 7.2GoodRated good· 13 reviewsThe location is perfect. Just minutes away from Coop and Migros Supermarket. It is possible to walk to downtown and to the Lago di Lugano. It is a spacious apartment that suited really a family of four. The kitchen has enough utensils to cook a simple meal. The price was way better than most of the good hotels in town.
