Villa Sommi Picenardi

The area is beautiful. The staff really worry about giving their guests a great stay.

Super nice staff, well maintained and clean hotel. Locations is amazing if you have a car.

This place must have been really nice… three decades ago. Now, it feels dated. The style was always gordy, but now it almost feels like being in a movie from the 1960s. Everything looks and feels old, despite the grandeur of the past and the continued signs of wealth (including three covered Rolls Royces in the underground parking). In the end, it is more of a great attraction than a great accommodation, also because it is inconveniently located — given that the distance to downtown Lugano isn’t that big, but the road is incredibly hilly and steep. Only stay there if you want to be at that place (for whatever reason), but not because you need accommodation for you visit to Lugano.
