Set in Grancia, 7ROOMS has a restaurant, garden, terrace, and free WiFi throughout the property. Guests can enjoy garden views.

My experience was really bad. I booked the hotel one month in advance. I do not know if it is due to Booking.com or the hotel. When it comes close to my date, the price gets lower. And I saw that of 7 rooms, just 2 rooms were booked. When staying, I finally knew the reason. The location is very far from the city centre (nearly 5km), with that price, is it really worth it? Secondly, the water here was so dirty, and the cups were partly broken even. The customer service was horrible. If anyone seeing on their site that they supported ticino ticket. NOOO, they stop it. A piece of advice from me, never book this hotel (choose the one in the city centre), pay attention to the one giving you ticino tickets. Even if you want to find peace, this one has awful facilities. I thought Booking.com was already disgusging, this one was even worse.

Incredible breakfast with personal touch. The room was spacious and clean with a lovely view unto the lake. The restaurant Ristorante Battello di Marco Silvestro was excellent. Highly recommended. Perfect stay on route along the Trans Swiss National hiking trail.

Situated in Grancia, within 5.8 km of Lugano Station and 6.5 km of Exhibition Center Lugano, CASA STEFANIA con giardino a LUGANO features accommodation with a garden as well as free private parking...

We stayed here for a night as a stopover. Place was spotless clean which is one of the things we most care about. Despite the shared bathroom everything was really nice, clean and organised. Stefania is a great host! She made us feel very welcome, offered free water, tee, coffee, as well as some pastry for breakfast. She also allowed us to park beyond check-out time, as we wanted to roam around Lugano with our bikes a bit longer. Thanks a lot for that!

Located in Sigirino, within 9.3 km of Lugano Station and 10 km of Exhibition Center Lugano, Ristorante Dosso offers accommodation with a bar as well as free private parking for guests who drive.

I needed a room for one night and that was it. I did not expect a five star hotel, only room, bed and restaurant. Hotel persons was helpful and restaurant was good, at least the portions was big! Breakfast was not available in Saturday, but lady gave me some sandwich for breakfast in the evening.

    Good breakfast and the breakfast host Katia is exceptional - her passion and hospitality is charming. The room is clean. The mattress is comfortable and supportive. It’s quiet overall - we could sometimes hear when neighbours opened or shut their doors or people upstairs pulled their chairs. But nothing too disruptive and people are generally quite respectful. The stay comes with vouchers for free public transport in the city and discount for funicular rides and museums, which is very handy.

    Very well appointed apartment, ground floor (couple of small steps to enter), felt as if newly renovated and furnished. Excellent kitchen, eating space indoors and outdoors in private courtyard. Washing machine and clothes horse, full sized fridge and freezer. spacious bathroom. In quieter part of town, but easy walk, bus to city centre. Hosts great- air-conditioning not yet installed so promptly supplied fans as weather was warming. Lots of little extras such as power plug adaptors. Great wifi.

    Probably the best view you could ever hope for and was so easy to get to town either walking or by the bus (which was super cheap) meant that you really didn’t miss out by not staying right in the centre. Monique was a great host and recommended a lido that was a bit further out of town that was fantastic

    Great location for our overnight stay en-route home after our summer vacation. The apartment is within walking distance to the centre but in quiet residential area. The apartment is new and exceptionally clean. The windows and small balcony made the apartment seem quite spacious even for a family of 4. Valentina was an excellent, welcoming and informative host. There was cold water, tea, coffee, fresh fruit and a bottle of wine waiting for us. We parked our car in the secure parking and walked everywhere.

    Riccardo is an extremely friendly and helpful host, it was very easy to get in touch with him. The apartment had everything we needed, very clean and all the amenities listed were there. The apartment's location is about 10 walking-minutes from the city center and has the private parking option, the view from the balcony was really nice. Great value for a great location.
