Hotel Federale, hotel in Lugano

This family-owned hotel is centrally located just a short walk from Lugano town centre and its breathtaking lakeshore, and the famous Piazza Riforma with its many sidewalk cafés.

The location of Studios 1 and 3 is excellent - just down the steps from the Cathedral of Saint Lawrence (the bells start at 7:00 and stop at 20:00). They both have air conditioning. Very clean and quiet, with the exception of some street noise (people, no cars). Oil, salt, dishwashing liquid, dishwasher tablets, sponge and kitchen towels were provided. Staff were friendly and professional, especially when I locked my keys in the room and they had to come down and help! It is close to the station (5 minutes walk) but it's up a steep hill that is mostly ramp with some stairs.

Location was perfect. Once we were told to get on the funicular. After getting off the train. Hotel was about 80 metres from funicular. Room was a squeeze as it was a very old building but had a lot of character and we loved that.

    Take the cable cart to the top of the hill - St.

    Take the cable cart to the top of the hill - St. Salvatore and if you have good weather - there awaits you and this is not an exaggeration by any means - one of the most amazing views I have ever seen in my life. 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. Lugano over all I think will stay in my heart :)

    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.

    The staff and the owner of the hotel are very helpful and they upgrade the room once they know that the Wifi is not good in our reserved room. The location in Paradiso is highly appreciated. The location is very close to the train station. It saves time and money to go to different important places like Monte San Salvatore, Swissmanutour, lake toures,.... The room was comfortable with a perfect balcony but the pillows has to be less soft. When I will go back to lugano I will reserve again a room in this hotel.

    We liked everything in Bellevue Bellavista. Two ladies were there and the breakfast was awesome. Really great stay. The view was breathtaking, rooms were cosy and airy. One can see the Lake Lugano from the room. Small kitchen was an added benefit with all the utensils and glasses made it a very helpful and comfortable stay. Last but not the least the connectivity is very good as there were buses every hour passing just beside the hotel.

    We requested a balcony with a Lake Lugano view and it was perfect, however there is a main road between our room and the lake. We like to keep the windows open, so there was traffic noise, but it did not bother us. The hotel was a quick walk to the train station and the boat cruises were right across the street. Restaurants everywhere and shopping galore. Breakfast was very good.

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.

    The warmth of the staff is exceeded only by the quiet, clean, comfort and beautiful location. We got in late and the lovely staff in the restaurant stayed open and ensured we were fed. We then walked from the hotel to the nearby park to see the lake within 2 minutes. A very cozy sleep and super convenient for train travelers needing a stop in Lugano or folks visiting longer!

    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.
