A newly renovated and gorgeous hotel with friendly and helpful staff. Just steps from the funicular, this hotel was perfect for our stay in Lugano and exploring the surrounding region. The included Ticino ticket is a nice bonus but the value is in the quality and cleanliness of the rooms and beds and the premier food and drinks. I slept so well, even with a bruised ribcage. The included breakfast is really delicious with everything one could need to fill up and start the day. The restaurant and bar, Flamel, is incredible. The house cocktails are a must try that will change your perception of what a cocktail should be. The dinner is first class and every dish is a work of art. An extra special touch is the foosball table in the lobby near the bar so we could have drinks while the kids played. I can't wait to go back and stay at this hotel again!

Nous avons passé un séjour absolument merveilleux dans cet hôtel. Dès notre arrivée, nous avons été accueillis avec une grande gentillesse par le personnel, souriant, disponible et prêt à rendre service. L’ambiance générale est chaleureuse et conviviale, ce qui met immédiatement à l’aise. La chambre était impeccablement propre et bien équipée. La literie était confortable. Nous avons également beaucoup apprécié le mini bar à disposition dans la chambre et la petite attention de la bouteille d’eau fraîche pour le départ en voiture. Le petit-déjeuner était un véritable régal, avec un large choix de produits frais, variés et savoureux. Il y en avait pour tous les goûts et tout était préparé avec soin. La localisation de l’hôtel est idéale : proche de tout, mais suffisamment calme pour garantir un séjour reposant. En résumé, un établissement que nous recommandons les yeux fermés à tous ceux qui recherchent confort, tranquillité et qualité de service.

What a great location, right at the base of the funicular and only one step to get into the hotel, that’s important when you’re transferring luggage from the train station! The room was comfortable, love the provided refrigerator and beverages! Breakfast was amazing! Anything you could want is probably there and the bacon was cooked to perfection! The only negative thing I would say is our shower was super small, doable, but if you’re a big person you might not like the tight fit. Super fast check in and check out.

Very near (walking distance) to Lugano train station and center of the city. Staff was great in explaining how to use Ticino transportation card (a great perk in the area, especially with the train station so close ) -- and then working with us on options when our flight was delayed on the last day. Strongly recommended when in Lugano!

I had a very pleasant experience staying at LUGANODANTE 2 years ago and looked forward to return there on this business trip. The room and bathroom were super clean, welcoming and comfortable with free coffee/tea, water and soft drinks in the minibar. There were ample outlets to connect my electronic devices. The buffet breakfast is copious and of high quality, using seasonal and sustainable ingredients. The reception staff is super friendly and helpful. One of the best part is the location, which is steps away from the funicular leading to the Lugano train station!
