This was my first stay since having inly stayed at Villa Castagnola a few times when in Lugano. The rooms are fantastic, view amazing, great room service (had breakfast twice), and the Michelin 1 star was a considerable gastronomic experience.

Everyone was great.
We could't ask for better.
We travelled for over 50 years to the finest places and this is up there with best.
we have never had a hotel that had a vehicle to use to go somewhere for free.
Expensive but worth every penny.

This hotel has the best service we have had in a long time. It was so discreet and beautiful. I would highly recommend it because it isn’t crowded yet still easily accessible by taxi.

The hotel was perfect. We really enjoyed our long weekend holiday there. They provide electrical car to move around Lugano which is perfect. Checking in was very easy and fast!. The reception guy names “Martin” was very nice, helpful, kind, supportive & helping us with everything to visit in Lugano. We tried the spa & it was nice! We missed hammam experience but kept it for next time. The best thing about the room was the huge bathtub & the view.
Thanks The View team <3 !

Property is excellent, high quality, and good value for money. The views are spectacular and I would not hesitate to recommend this hotel. It is 5-10 min drive outside the main area of the city, and not entirely walkable from up the hill, so they have smart cars available to guests for free to make up for it. We got an early check-in, breakfast included everyday. Give this one a try!

I arrived at the property to do my job, and the staff and the facilities combined to help me to do that so I can now rest at home. I arrived tired, busy and slightly burned out - but because of the staff, facilities, clean air and views I easily did 2-3 weeks work during my 5 days at The View Laguna - and I also completed many of the wider training, meetings and strategic things I needed to do in my time there too. I could easily do 12-14 hours a day and remain refreshed, focused, rested and happy. This was a truly outstanding experience for me which I will book many times in the future. I’m very grateful for everything you did for me. Thank you.

Really great service and friendly service ambassadors. Can use their electric cars and bikes for free; spa has salt room and sauna; awesome view at night from the bed (first time for us).
Spa is OK. Sometimes some staff are not as enthusiastic (maybe language issue).
