What guests think

Bigatt Hotel & Restaurant impresses guests with its beautifully renovated historic setting, sweeping Lugano views, very clean and comfortable rooms, friendly and attentive staff, and highly praised breakfast and restaurant showcasing quality food and a relaxing, quiet atmosphere.

The hillside location feels private but is less convenient for reaching downtown; several guests relied on the bus or a car, and walking the steep route was difficult for some. The pool and garden receive frequent praise. Expect warm service and quality dining, with planning needed for trips into Lugano.

If anyone in your party has mobility limitations, this otherwise wonderful place may not be for you. We had stayed here before and all went well. However, this time they had assigned us rooms that required climbing a full set of stairs - not a possibility for one person in our party. Apparently, their elevators do not reach many of the rooms. We were able to switch one room to a more accessible one, but incredibly the doorway to access it was open in one direction only during the hours the restaurant is in operation. As the manager explained it: so that restaurant patrons are spared the view of folks accessing their room. An alternate access exists, but it again comes with stairs or is not available when the conference room is in use. A clear warning about limited accessibility would be helpful at time of booking. According to the manager, had we called ahead, better arrangements could have been made but we did not know this was necessary.

Bigatt is the nicest surprise I have ever had for a hotel stay. The staff, the fresh and clean atmosphere, the pool (swimming outdoors in the alps on Halloween was not expected), the dinner made from a fresh on the grounds garden, the house wine also made on the grounds, the stunning views of Lugano, and also the story of the place all make it a rare find while traveling. Bigatt is the real deal for hospitality and stay here if can. I will try to be back some day.

Der Aufenthalt im Hotel war sehr gut. Höhepunkt war die wundervolle Aussicht und das ausgezeichnete Frühstückbuffet. Aer Pool war sehr gut. Das Wasser bei 32° Außentemperatur zu warm. Das Hotel ist eher teuer. Nicht nötig finde ich CHF 16./Nacht fürs Parking, da das Hotel ja nicht grad im Zentrum liegt und eine Anreise ohne Auto kompliziert ist. Dafür gibt es das Ticino Ticket, das die Nutzung des ÖVs erleichtert. Beim TV funktionierte etwa 10 Sender nur mit Störungen. Sschade, dass die deutschsprachigen Schweizer Sender davon betroffen sind.

Von der Restaurant Terrasse hat man einen wunderschönen Ausblick über die Bucht von Lugano. Alles in Allem lohnt sich ein Aufenthalt im Hotel Bigat.

This was an old villa renovated to a high standard. It was very beautiful. Our room was clean, large and we loved the decor. The most amazing thing was the view of Lugano. The restaurant was pricey but served outstanding dishes. The breakfast buffet beautifully presented with many options. The staff was very friendly and helpful. Unfortunately the hotel was on a steep hillside and we could only get to town by car as we could not walk down the hill. We are older and not in the best physical shape. However, overall, a fantastic hotel that we would warmly recommend.

Se posso permettermi solo un piccolo consiglio: Sarebbe più comodo avere le uova già pronte al buffet della colazione per non dover attendere la loro cottura. sicuramente tornerò
