Here’s a quick list of the best hotels in Lugano
Boutique hotels in Lugano transform lakeside luxury into intimate, design-forward escapes where local art, Swiss-Italian cuisine, and personalized service capture the city’s chic, relaxed spirit. For the best experience, choose properties in the historic center or along the promenade for easy access to Piazza della Riforma and boat excursions, prioritize lake-view rooms or private terraces, and seek out small hotels that offer curated experiences—private tastings, guided walks, and wellness treatments. Book well ahead for summer and festival seasons, and favor establishments that highlight local craftsmanship and sustainable practices for a more authentic, responsible stay.
