A beautiful property with attentive staff. Gorgio the concierge was especially helpful. We upgraded to a panorama suite and it was very large and comfortable with incredible view. The breakfast buffet had nice variety, The bar and the restaurant are good, but expensive. The outdoor terrace is lovely -- the indoor bar could use a "refresh" in design although in the nice summer weather we preferred to be outside with the incredible view. The one thing to note about the property is that to get to/from downtown Lugano can be expensive. During the day if you are fit you can walk down and back (a bit of a climb) and the hotel does have a shuttle service at certain times. But, in the evening taxi was required.

The restaurant staff for dinner didn’t seem to be knowledgeable. The manager ( in the suit) did not make us feel comfortable. He hovered the entire dinner and seemed pretentious! I ordered a latte and received a glass of milk. Of the five day journey across Switzerland, the only food we rated as bad was the salad we ordered at dinner. Everything else at the hotel, I would give an excellent rating!
