I absolutely loved my stay at this hotel! The rooms were incredibly clean and surprisingly spacious for this type of hotel, but they do have that standard Ibis style layout and design. The service was top-notch; the staff were not only very good but also friendly and responsive - they even sent on a package I had left in our room. The location was perfect for me, with easy access to the bus stop that takes you to the train station and the lake. The dining experience was delightful, with a good variety of options to choose from and the hot Belgian waffles were a real treat. The facilities were excellent, and I couldn't have asked for more.

The hotel is situated in a nice area near the lake, within easy walking distance of the city center. The rooms, although not spotless, are well-equipped with comfortable beds. The service was wonderful, especially at the breakfast buffet. The dining options, while very tasty, were a bit pricey. The hotel's location is extremely helpful and quick for exploring Lugano. The facilities are adequate but could be improved. Overall, the stay offers a great value for money.

The hotel is conveniently located near the lake and within easy walking distance of the city center. Rooms are spacious but lack in quality furniture with a resemblance to a budget hotel. Service was friendly but lacked a more serious approach. Dining offers a variety of choices, mostly continental. The location is great for exploring Lugano with easy access to transportation.

Upon arrival, the room was a bit cold, and I found it rather small with a plastic container-like bathroom inside. Despite being uncomfortably hot initially, even with the heating off, the quality of furniture was below average, resembling an 'IBIS budget' version on the same floor. The hotel does offer a very friendly service from the front desk to the lady managing breakfast, although the rooms were not ideal in terms of size and furnishings.

When I arrived at the hotel, I found the location to be quite convenient for getting around by car without facing long queues, even though it's a bit away from the center. The rooms were spacious and bigger than a standard Ibis, but they were a bit cold initially. The service from the staff was extremely helpful and quick, despite them appearing a bit stressed at times. The dining experience was good and plentiful, especially the fresh French patisseries. The facilities were adequate, and the hotel was easy to locate among the other options in the area.
