If you are looking for a vacation destination that offers sun, sports, history, and a glimpse into another culture, then consider the Swiss city of Lugano for your next trip. The city of 56,889 residents (130,000 if you include the surrounding areas) is just south of the Swiss Alps, and is bordered on three sides by Italy, accounting for its primarily Italian-speaking population. It is known to the world at large not only as a popular vacation spot for celebrities, entertainers, and famous sports figures, but also as an important business and banking city. This combination of activities makes Lugano an economically thriving town with plenty to offer its visitors and tourists.
The hotel Lugano options for visitors number over 70. With so many hotels to choose from, it is important to identify which qualities you are looking for in your vacation lodgings. Are you looking for a luxury hotel with amenities that tempt you to remain on the hotel grounds during the day? Consider booking a room at the Hotel de la paix Lugano, which has a pool on the grounds, features balconies with a view of Lago Lugano, and is just down the street from a local lake cruise establishment. Another good option is the Hotel du Lac Lugano, which is one of only two lakefront hotels situated in the town of Lugano itself, and offers free wi-fi, an outdoor swimming pool, and a popular restaurant with an outdoor terrace.
Are you searching for a hotel that will be a great fit for your children, as well as you? The Hotel Lago di Lugano is located in Bissone, just across the lake from Lugano, and is highly recommended by families for its abundance of activities offered, and for added bonuses, such as complimentary juice in the rooms, and free boats that travel back and forth between Bissone and Lugano.
If you are hoping to find a basic hotel that is clean and centrally located, but does not blow your entire vacation budget there is a Lugano hotel for that as well. Consider the Hotel Delfino Lugano, which still offers extras such as a swimming pool, wi-fi, and private balconies, and is just above the main street, or consider the Hotel Pestalozzi, which is the least expensive of all of the above-listed options, and which provides basic, no-frills rooms that are clean and well taken care of.
