Very nice hotel, close to the city center and with an amazing view on the lake. My room was newly refurbished, it was very nice and clean. Communication with staff was smooth and they were also very helpful. Hotel has an amazing rooftop terrasse with a great view on the lake and mountains, unfortunately the weather was nice only the last day of my stay so I could not enjoy it so much, but it is one other reason to visit again. Highly recommended

I cannot thank enough to all the staff of Hotel Federale, they are all AMAZING and not only well prepared for their job, but they take care of each customer with heart, trying their best to make the staying a wonderful experience.
The staff at reception is fantastic, during our stay each one took time to ask if we are ok, took on their one initiative to bring a baby bed in our room, the restaurant staff was every day very careful that our baby was eating and was sitting comfortable.
Thank you to all and for sure we will be back in not too long time from now

Also we took a boat ride along the lake, which without any discount is about 40CHF for 2 hours ride, which is also very nice. There is a half tax discount if you have it for Switzerland. Miniature museum is nice as well.

2 nights would have been sufficient for us.
2 nights would have been sufficient for us. We took a day trip to Bellinzona and visited most of the popular attractions and had time to spare.
We are not shoppers or people who like to hang out next to a pool and relax. If you are that type of person, the lake is beautiful and the shopping
options are abundant.

Lugano is an exceptional peaceful small city where you can enjoy the best views of the lake. Much better place to be compared to Como the busy crowded city.
We totally loved this city and all the things that offers from good food and pleasant historic buildings as well as friendly people.

Lugano is beautiful!
Lugano is beautiful! Walking by the lake, sitting by it in chairs provided for free to the public, taking a boat ride, riding the funicular up to the mountain to see the views, all great! City bus transportation excellent.

Everything within walking distance or short bus/train/...
Everything within walking distance or short bus/train/funicular away. Great beach, amazing scenery. Lots of great restaurants. So Many points of interest to see, we unfortunately didn’t have time to do it all, but we enjoyed taking the funicular to Monte Bre, boat excursion to Melide, train to Bellizone to see the castles… Guess we’ll need to come back to see the rest!
This little hotel, which I booked at the last minute with few expectations, turned out to be great. The rooms are actually bigger than they look in the photos, and they were clean and well appointed. The staff was kind and helpful. The location is great, just a 15 minute walk to the centre of town, or an extremely short bus ride. (Staying at the hotel comes with a free bus pass, and the bus stop is just 200 m away. Buses run frequently and on time – this is Switzerland after all.) Breakfast was good, too.
Check in was easy. Breakfast was delicious. The people who work here act like they really enjoy their work. The hotel is right on the lake -stunning views from our room. The room is very comfortable . Very close to shopping, lake cruise, train station. There is a sitting room, with coffee or tea available to be made. A printer is also available. It is very nice to have the Ticino Card (available on request) for free travel on ticino trains ( to Bellinzona, Locarno) and the funiculare to the train station.
All the staff were friendly and helpful, from breakfast staff to house keeping, especially the gentleman at reception who gave us recommendations about visiting Morcote.
Location was great, arrived by train to Paradiso which is a 5 min walk to the hotel. Its also a short walk to the lake, where we were at one end and could walk lakeside to Lugano to the other side. Also conveniently located next to the funicular to the top of the mountain for 360 panoramic views.
Quiet location above Lugano, large rooms with proper AC. Staff pleasant and helpful. Large outside pool was appreciated by all. Breakfast buffet was reasonable, but low fat/low sugar options were few. Restaurant in the evening offers buffet or pizza. Neither were great, but the local restaurant about 9 min walk away called Balmelli was superb (fab food prepared by 2 Italian Chefs, lovely service and reasonably priced within Switzerland for the standards).
The ONLY hotel we stayed in Switzerland with air-conditioning! We paid for breakfast which is the best decision ever because their breakfast spread is amazing!! Definitely worth the convenience & experience! The room comes with the lake view and its pretty quite at night. Clean room, clean sheets, clean towels! Staffs there are very friendly & helpful. Nearest hotel from train station! Toilet comes with standing shower!
Everything was fabulous, we loved the old-world charm of the hotel, the welcome was warm, and I think they discreetly upgraded us to one of the best rooms. Breakfast was excellent, and the position of the hotel is perhaps the best in Lugano, the view from the room and the breakfast area is wonderful. I hope the family will continue to maintain this historic and delightful hotel.
Amazing two bedroom suite on the fifth floor with the most beautiful view of the lake. Staff was spectacular; room was huge with spacious bedrooms and sitting area. Balcony was amazing with a four top table and the best view you could have of Lake Lugano. The regular rooms are much smaller but the hotel and staff, and the two bedroom suite was superb. Thank you!
The location was excellent—10 minutes walking distance to the funicular to Monte San Salvatore and 5 minutes to Lake Lugano—and the Paradiso boat stop. Dinner outdoors on the patio of the hotel restaurant was delightful with pleasant Italian singer (in English) and in the morning the breakfast was generous and delicious!
Breakfast was adequate, this is not a 5 star hotel, & Europeans generally have a lighter fare, so some comments were a little tough. We enjoyed ourselves very much. The staff was welcoming and VERY helpful. Clean room and a comfortable bed. Right in the center of activities and easy to access restaurants & the lake.
Really nice hotel, the rooms were spacious - we travelled with our two kids, plenty of space for all of us, nice breakfast. The view was very nice, the location is near bus and train stations, one can easily reach Lugano from there. Nice touch with the complimentry water, wine and specific cookies.
Breakfast was brilliant, so much choice! Staff were super friendly. Could have my dog overnight for a 20chf supplement and they even gave us a puppy goodie bag. The bed was very comfy and everywhere was exceptionally clean. The hotel is a lovely walk along the promenade from Lugano to Paradiso.
The hotel is situated only two minutes from Lugano Station. Although it is quite sober it is also very clean and neat, with the necessary soap, shampoo and towel. The bed is of good quality. I liked the balcony for sitting out on a balmy night. Staff was helpful and polite.
As a solo traveler for 2 nights in Lugano, I loved this hotel. Excellent value with a room for single occupancy. Attentive staff, a fine breakfast for good value, central location, and super clean. I would choose this hotel on my next visit.
5 star resort beautifully located on a hill with a breathtaking view over "Lago die Lugano". We felt absolutely welcomed by the hotel team and the complimentary services such as tennis courst and bike rentals were more than convenient.
Hotel with a beautiful setting on the edge of Lake Lugano. Also very handily placed for the Funicular up to Mount Bre with some great views for photos. Excellent breakfast spread and sattf were firendly and welcoming.
Atmosphera in this hotel like in my grandmother home. Everything very good organized, Just love it. Thank you very much for great vacation. All arrond mounts, lake is a beautiful. Very clean. Breakfast is so good.
Property is top notch. Feels like a luxury boutique hotel. Very clean and modern. In a great location. Easy walk everywhere. Very quiet compared to the hustle of the city going on around you.
