"Fantastic breakfast! Best ever! You don’t even have to fill your own croissant! There’s everything you could ask for. Wow the cakes!
Loved the location: near the station that goes everywhere, bus stops very close and the boat station too and even closer is the funicular station which is an absolute must do! We could see it from our balcony.
We came back after a day of sightseeing, very hot and rushed up to the pool which we had to ourselves, nice bar up there too.
Room is very comfortable and the coffee machine works well.
We loved the friendly restaurant around the corner Panariellos, big pizza to share
too."
"A hard review to write. I gave 5 stars in most areas. The service and the overall property was excellent but for the price we had some issues. The KEY to the room is a huge pain! You only get one key and if you lose it there is a $1000 Swiss franc fee to replace it and a minimum 3 hour wait. Two doors to go through so it is very inconvenient. While the room we had was very large with a bedroom plus a large kitchen/living space with two patios there was only one TV in the living room! No bedroom TV. The one TV would not let you stream your devices to it. No Netflix or other streaming source. There were no channels in English on the regular TV. Despite being named The View and paying over a $1000 a night we had a very partial and obstructed view. If you stay here make sure you are on the second or third floor. The view from the restaurant and spa are amazing and wonderful though. The bathtub/shower combination was just dangerous. Highest step out without any stability handles. Very poor design and for the cost you would expect separate units. Lastly the location is a real issue for most. Unless you have your own car expect to spend a lot in Taxis or spend time trying to find smart car parking and extra walking to anything - food shopping everything is a $25 or more ride into Lugano. Can't take Smart cars to Italy. Como is a $100 and one hour nightmare away."
"Really nice place with beautiful views over the region. The staff were lovely and the room service dinner I had was excellent and reasonably priced (even for Switzerland). I highly recommend for a relaxing day or two in a surreal setting."
"We had an amazing experience with spa , incredible views and good breakfast.
We received a bottle of local red wine as a VIP Expedia gift but free upgrades to room with a view on the lake was not available to us . The waiting staff were very friendly and the piano music in the evening felt very special .
If the hotel provided coffee maker in the room it would make it even better."
"Excellent stay! Clean, comfortable hotel in a great location, just a short walk from the lake and the funicular. Friendly staff, good breakfast, and beautiful surroundings. Would definitely stay here again! 😊"
"This is a wonderful hotel with all the needed amenities. Great location in Morcote, which is close to Lugano and the train station. Staff was excellent, especially the driver Hasim."
