10/10 Exceptional

The views are FANTASTIC!! We stayed in one of the family rooms which was very spacious for four adults and 2 teens. Our kids had their own rooms. The nice added feature was an extra powder room so we weren’t clamoring around 1 restroom. AC in unit was also a nice bonus as we arrived on a very muggy day. The restaurant staff were also friendly and accommodating. You didn’t feel pressured to finish eating at a certain time. We also enjoyed the indoor and outdoor pool and saunas as well as indoor jacuzzi. And finally check out was also a breeze.

4/10 Fair

Not a 4 star
Worst hotel we have seen in Switzerland. No ac in the bedroom. The hotel will not tell you where you can get breakfast even if it’s included in your room charge. No ac anywhere on the property- it’s melting at 26 c - can not even walk the hallways without sweating. Inconvenient pool access. Dirty toilets. Bad housekeeping- rings doorbell at 8:30 even after a do not disturb sign. Overpriced restaurant- while food is mediocre at best. This is not 4 star. Service is rude and go get yourself a better property. The whole property is in shambles. Not even painted from outside.

I had a good experience overall. It’s more of a 4 star property so very good across the board. The pool, fitness center and views of Lake Lugano are the highlights.
