LUGANODANTE Boutique & Lifestyle Hotel

10/10 Excellent
"Hotel Lugano Dante was absolutely perfect for our stay in Lugano. Beautifully located in the heart of the city yet peaceful and relaxing. The room was spotless, elegant, and extremely comfortable. Breakfast was excellent with great variety and quality. What truly made our stay exceptional was the staff — warm, professional, and genuinely caring throughout. We felt truly welcomed and looked after. A fantastic hotel we would return to without hesitation. Highly recommend this hotel. "
