The View Lugano in Lugano

We have been to Lugano quite a few times and this is by far the best hotel and experience sofar. from the moment we booked there was communication, on arrival there was a very friendly helpfull staff to welcome us. Our breakfast staff was also extremly nice and service minded. reason im writting this is because this is not always the case on Swiss hotels. location , view, pool, spa, room was also top notch absolutly a the best hotel in the area

Loved the hotel and the service! Smaller sized (SLH member) yet the View was amazing, even though in February, the staff from front desk to restaurant to spa was very accommodating. Giulia Giacommo, and really everyone at breakfast, - fantastic service. I am biased to say the best spa person was Milena, - knowledgeable, professional and exceptional service going beyond extra miles! I hope to be back at warmer times, thank you!!

We spent three nights at The View Lugano at the end of our two-week Europe trip, and it was truly one of the most spectacular hotels I’ve ever stayed in—if not the most spectacular. The hotel is perfectly named: it sits high on a hill overlooking the stunning Lake Lugano, and the moment we stepped onto our balcony at sunset, the view literally brought my wife to tears. The town itself is charming, intimate, and beautifully quaint—much smaller and more peaceful than Lake Como, which we had also considered for this part of our trip. Choosing Lugano was absolutely the right call. Everything at The View Lugano was exceptional. Breakfast was outstanding, the on-site restaurant was fantastic, and the hotel offers a Michelin-starred tasting-menu experience that was unforgettable. Another amazing touch: guests can use complimentary electric cars and smart cars to explore the town. We used them multiple times for dinners and shopping trips, and it made getting around both fun and convenient. The entire property has an incredibly romantic atmosphere, making it the perfect way to end our travels across several countries. We left feeling relaxed, connected, and already dreaming of coming back. I cannot recommend The View Lugano highly enough.

Wonderful hotel, can’t praise it enough.
Look forward to our next stay!

The View Lugano from upper management to the entire View team made my stay the best ever.
The rooms are beautiful, meticulously clean and the food is absolutely wonderful.
Breakfast is a must.
Can’t wait to come back!

I had a wonderful experience at The View Lugano Spa with Monica. The atmosphere was calm and relaxing from the start. My massage was fantastic—she has a great technique that melts away tension while keeping you completely comfortable. The facial afterward was just as amazing, with high-quality products that left my skin glowing. Monica is skilled, attentive, and makes the whole experience feel personalized. Highly recommend if you’re visiting Lugano!

What an amazing stay - from beginning to end, the entire staff, facility and location was top notch! I can’t say enough good things about The View Lugano. By far our favorite stay in many, many years.

The staff was wonderful, the view was incredible and the Smart-cars made available to us to drive made our trip! If you want peace and quiet with a very romantic view and setting this is the place.

The View is aptly named. Probably the most stunning view I've ever had at a hotel. The room was very spacious and impecable, just as appears on the website. The hotel breakfast was wonderful, and I've had a lot of them. Be aware, this hotel is about a 35 minute walk from the center of Lugano, which some fail to mention. There's a city bus you can catch that cuts it down to 15 minutes. However, the hotel is situated up a very steep hill, which you have to climb to get to the bus stop. This was ok as we are young and fit, but would be a problem for small children or older adults. Even for us, the climb each day was exhausting and I chose to limit how many times I went back and forth to the hotel because of this. It was also June and close to 90 degrees, so that didn't help. We did not try out the bikes, as I'm not adept enough of a rider to deal with the steep hills so that is something to be aware of too if you're thinking you want to use the available ebikes. All in all, the price was exorbitant, and although the stay was excellent, I probably would not choose this property again due to the climb to get back and forth. Finally, the spa facilities and indoor pool were nice. I think having an outdoor pool would have been even better though.
