Perfect Location

The location of this apartment was one block from Lake Lugano and one block from the entrance to the Park. I loved having the balcony, and ate most of my meals on it. All of the appliances worked well, albeit the Meile engineering takes a bit of time to figure out. In the end, they worked! The apartment was extremely clean, and I felt very comfortable there.

Overall it was great. Location could not have been better and the building was nice. It was clean. We had 3 people and it was tight. I would recommend for 2 people to stay. The shower drain was clogged and they immediately came to fix it. The dryer was not working.

"Heart of Lugano" apartment is located in beautiful downtown Lugano.

We loved this apartment, with ample room for both of us. It was clean and fashionably furnished. Newer appliances. It could be noisy outside in the evenings, but closing the windows eliminated the noise entirely. The locked building seemed safe throughout our stay. Just a few short blocks from beautiful Lake Lugano we enjoyed a lovely boat tour of the lake. Easy access to multiple cafes, restaurants and shops gave us plenty to see and do while in Lugano. Lugano has an excellent community transportation system including city buses and funiculars up/down the hills into the city. A ride on the funicular to the top of Monte San Salvatore was a favorite.

Great central location

The property was very spacious, clean, and right in the heart of Lugano. We were able to explore Lugano very easily from this location! We were welcomed with a complimentary bottle of prosecco:) The unit had a private washer and dryer, which was super convenient to get our laundry done during our extended vacation. The unit didn't have a lot of kitchen equipment to cook meals & while the unit was very spacious for European standards, it seemed too big & a little empty & cold. The central location was awesome, but also right next to the casino, so there was a lot of street noise at night that the windows couldn't block. But I supposed it comes with the place being right in the heart of Lugano. Overall, this place was nice, just needs a little more livable space touches to be better.

Heart of Lugano

Wir haben zwei Wochen in dieser Wohnung verbracht und uns sehr wohl und zu Hause gefühlt. Die Wohnung ist gemütlich, gut und grosszügig eingerichtet, und alles für den Alltag Notwendige ist vorhanden. Die Lage im Zentrum, nahe am See, den Geschäften und den öffentlichen Verkehrsmitteln ist wunderbar, und die freundliche kleine Wein-Bar in der Überbauung, wo wir ab und zu ein gutes Tessiner-Gericht bestellen konnten, war für uns in der Zeit der geschlossenen Restaurants eine Freude. Die Kommunikation ist gut, und der Empfang bei Happy Holidays war herzlich.Es wäre schön, wenn ein paar Grundnahrungsmittel wie Gewürze sowie etwas mehr Tabs für den Geschirrspühler vorhanden wären.

Heart of Lugano

We had a great time in the heart of Lugano. We would like to come again. We loved the view to the lake. Perfect location in the city center. We arrived early. The Heart was ready. So we got the key to the apartment. Thank u. Very kind. We found it easely. Apartment clean. We did not miss anything. We heard the music and the people of the bar in the street on friday and saturday night. The rest of the time very quiet.

perfekt gelegen im Zentrum

Die Lage ist perfekt, ebenso die Grösse der Wohnung für 1-2 Personen. Mit offenem Fenster zu schlafen könnte schwierig werden (jetzt im Winter nicht der Fall), da die Bar unterhalb der Wohnung auch während der Woche bis weit über Mitternacht laute Gäste (vor der Tür) hatte. Mit geschlossenen Fendtern gehts, auch dann aber störend. Küchenausstattung ausreichend, sehr schönes und sauberes Bad, Schlafzimmer leider nicht gut geputzt (überall am Boden Haare von Vorgänger_in. Hätte gerne ein Manual zu Heizung und TV gehabt, konnte beides nicht bedienen. Alles in allem: Gute Wohnung, um einige Tage Lugano zu erkunden.
