I don't know where all the complaining folks stayed but we had a great time. The staff was ALL very nice and helpful, the buffet breakfast was fine, the bartender had a great personality and the french fries with cold beer sitting out on the patio made for a great evening. Yes, the hotel is being remodeled and the first... More

They charged us $300 for a double room. When we arrived at the hotel we were shocked to see how dated and in... More

When I visitied this hotel I was again surprised how bad the price performance ratio of hotels in Switzerland are. But even taken into account that "normal" hotels in Switzerland do not have the "normal standard" compared to other countries this hotel is still not good. I cannot understand why some peoople gave four or five stars. One reason I... More

We were charged 240 swiss francs for a very poor room, in hindsight we should have left. The hall carpets were badly stained, the bathtub grouting was black with mould almost all the way around, there was an extra 19 franc charge for internet access (or 39 francs for the "total package" of tv and internet). There wasn't an amenity... More

Not worth for the price. The staff is not friendly. A lot of noise in the room. Far away from the city center (in Paradiso) but close to the highway exit. A lot of construction work in the area and also inside the hotel. Renovation is done in some rooms. I did not feel comfortable and would not book this... More

I recently spent a week in Lugano, Switzerland at the Holiday Inn. The staff make me feel like a member of the family, went out of their way to be helpful in many ways. The room was clean and bright, comfortable bed, both pools delightful, one for exercise, the other for sunbathing.I would definitely return! More

We stayed in the hotel overnight on our way back from France. We did venture out and the lakeside will be worth another visit, when it's not raining. The room was alright but it was very tired and a total refurbishment is called for. The bathroom was clean and so were the beds, they were also comfortable but the rest... More
