spacious room. lots of light. Large balcony overlooks the city. Not a spectacular view but served its purpose. Clean. We didnt get to spend too much time there but it was a good, clean place to stay. toilet area was a little cramped. Pillows were very hard for my taste. Our room had a private bathroom and there were shared... More

Granted Villa Marita is only 2* BUT... Poor 'Reception' (hallway with table and information leaflets - but no signs/personnel) - had to wander downstairs to kitchen area to fine someone to check-in.

My family stayed in this hotel for a week, and the lobby is ok, but the rooms are dirty and the showers have mildew in them. After asking for the shower to be cleaned, it was still dirty. I payed way too much for this hotel per night, for the quality of room I had. The internet access is limited... More

The Villa Martia is a discount hotel on a hillside above Lugono, Switzerland: it is in a residential area in walking distance of the city, although the hillside is very steep. Be sure to have a good map to find it: signage is minimal; there is limited parking available adjacent to the hotel. The hotel itself is dark with a... More

My husband and I went for a 6 day vacation in Lugano, Switzerland. The charming, homey Villa Marita hotel became our home away from home. The cute, clean, and comfortable room with its balcony, the magnificent mountain view, the charming inviting dining room, with its wide doors opening to a beautiful garden with comfortable lounge chairs, was the best place...
