Overview
The hotel opened in 1902 at the south end of town, next to the lake and on the grounds of the Villa Merlina, a 19th century villa known (1887) for its spectacular gardens.
The owners, the Fedele family enlarged the existing structure and opened a 125-bed hotel, originally called the Hotel Splendide.
The hotel soon gained a steady clientele among the wealthy Europeans who frequented this summer resort.
In 1977 an Italian hotel company bought the hotel from the Fedele family and in 1983 they added a new wing with 53 guest rooms.
Today it is known as Lugano's foremost hotel, with 96 guest rooms and a staff of 100 employees who provide meticulous personal service.
The hotel inspires loyalty among its clients, more than half the guests here are usually repeat visitors.
The influence of Italian culture is quite dominant in the city of Lugano, sitting on the shore of Lago di Lugano just across the lake from Italy.
The area is now the largest resort in the Swiss canton of Ticino, as well as Switzerland's third-largest banking center.

I Like It!
 | | Overall rating: |  | Value rating : |  |
I was in this hotel for a couple days with my husband for a romantic trip. It has a great location on the lake and all Lugano is in walking distance, you can rent a small boat to cruise with the guide or yourself. You can jog along the lake or climb to the mountains.
We had a very nice room in the new building, it was spacious and well furnished. Best of all I liked the morning view on the lake. When you wake up it's so nice to see the calm blue lake with small boats on it. It puts you in a good mood for all day.
But unfortunately everything has a bad side. The only thing that I didn't like is the noise that comes from the street. My room was on the 3 rd floor, however the noise was enough to wake up me every morning. But it's not a village it's a town!
So I like this hotel. And I forgot to say about its restaurant- I think that it is one of the best in Lugano! They made perfect Seabass in salt!
