Fabulous location overlooking the lake and ideal for accessing everything. It’s beautifully clean, simple but well equipped rooms and great to have your own balcony looking onto the lake.

Excellent location (just a short walk down the hill from the train station), wonderful staff, delicious breakfast! We enjoyed our stay very much! The beds were comfortable, there was plenty of food to chose from during breakfast and we received answers to all the questions we had. The hotel has its own history which we found very interesting to see in all the pictures that were up on the walls.

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.

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.

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.

Everything within walking distance or short bus/train/...
Everything within walking distance or short bus/train/funicular away. Great beach, amazing scenery. Lots of great restaurants. So Many points of interest to see, we unfortunately didn’t have time to do it all, but we enjoyed taking the funicular to Monte Bre, boat excursion to Melide, train to Bellizone to see the castles… Guess we’ll need to come back to see the rest!
We were visiting our daughter at the Montarina, it was very convenient and close to everything. The staff is extremely friendly and helpful. Our room had a beautiful view of the the gardens, pool and a glimpse of the lake - all very pretty.
Breakfast was included, it was a very diverse and full meal. The building itself is 150 years old, everything has been modernized and is as good as could be expected
It’s not a 5 star hotel, but the service, staff and amenities are a very good and comfortable value
I like everything here and plan to come back with my husband in April next year. The location is very good within five minutes walking from the train station to the hotel. Very easy to walk to any where as the hotel location is in the city center. Walking to the Lugano lake is about five minutes. Breakfast was good quality and variety. All staff i contact with were so friendly.
The hotel was OK but we just felt that overall it was not great value for money. We know it was Switzerland and in an expensive city but we have stayed in ones that are better but cheaper.
We ate in the restaurant at night and this along with the breakfast was fine.
We cannot fault the staff, both at reception and in the restaurant. They could not have been more helpful.
Our stay at this hotel was PERFECT. It was our first time visiting Switzerland (Lugano). It was a special occasion as it was my birthday. Our room was on the 4th floor, we had a balcony with front lake view and it was so worth it. The staff were very kind, friendly and helpful. The location was great. We enjoyed our stay and we will definitely want to come back again.
My family and I had a wonderful time at the Lido Seegarten. The location is excellent and the hotel is very comfortable. The view from the balcony, restaurant and pool area is magnificent and the direct lake access is superb. The gym was nice and modern. Everything was super clean. The staff and service was excellent. We highly recommend a stay here.
The hotel is amazing starting with the welcoming staff, to the stylish touches and finally the cozy, plush rooms. They go out of their way to assist you and the property has many great features: two restaurants, a pool, terrazza and complimentary breakfast buffet. We were only in Lugano one night but Hotel de la Paix made it extra special!
Breakfast was adequate, this is not a 5 star hotel, & Europeans generally have a lighter fare, so some comments were a little tough. We enjoyed ourselves very much. The staff was welcoming and VERY helpful. Clean room and a comfortable bed. Right in the center of activities and easy to access restaurants & the lake.
Close to Lugano train station, friendly welcome. Payment is made at check-in so check-out just involves leaving the room key. Bed comfortable and larger than a normal single bed, hot water available any time of day.
Very reasonable price for a hotel in Switzerland but don't expect more than the basics.
The location is close to a train station and the funicular going to San Salvatore. It's just a bus ride away from Lugano centre, though walking is an enjoyable option because of the stunning view. Cheaper compared to Hotels in Lugano center. Good sized room with a balcony.
Excellent breakfast and Michelin grade restaurant food! Very attentive and professional staffs helpful for my stay! And amazing view and serenity overlooking Lugano from the hotel. I highly recommend someone who needs nice and quiet time in beautiful Lugano!
As a solo traveler for 2 nights in Lugano, I loved this hotel. Excellent value with a room for single occupancy. Attentive staff, a fine breakfast for good value, central location, and super clean. I would choose this hotel on my next visit.
The hotel is located wonderfully at the hill overlooking lugano lake. A very beautiful swimming pool and with a kitchen equipped with all basic items you need.
great welcome package for drinks as well. a good place to chill
A beautiful hotel nested on the fill surrounded by the beautiful lake of Lugano. Paradise like views.
Amazing helpful staff.
All rooms are spacious; suites.
Everything is clean.
Parking provided.
Would love to come back!
The views and location were perfect and the size of the rooms were great. The service was friendly and attentive. Easy walk into the old town of Lugano and lakeside. The spa was really good with indoor pool and jacuzzi.
Perfect room space, great customer service of the hotel staff, reception, etc. And especially excellent hotel restaurant service.
Great location, less than 5min walk to the lake, and 10 to 15min to Lugano center.
Amazing single-room with the view to Lugano lake, very clean and nice😍 Hotel territory is large and green, with pool and outdoor restaurant! Incredible place 💚
Typical chain hotel so you know what you get. Breakfast was excellent. The cost was a little high but Switzerland is expensive and this was a great location.
