Lugano, Canton of Ticino hotel rooms at the Independent

"Great hotel and location. Breakfast was outstanding. "

"Amazing breakfast. Very nice facilities and helpful staff. Really enjoyed being on the waterfront."

"Comfortable clean practical room. Easy to get anywhere in Lugano. The laundry room requires a bit of negotiation with others during busy times. Bring your own laundry soap and basket - for travelers this means a trip to the grocery store. "

"The views of Lake Lugano from this property are amazing. "

"Katie who served the breakfast, was incredible and very welcoming."

"Great location, awesome staff. Overall amazing."

"The hotel was just below the train station but it was still very quiet. The rooms were updated and comfortable. The breakfast was excellent with a variety of hot and cold foods. We walked down the hill to dinner, sightseeing and shopping and took the tram up. Transportation was free because of the pass the hotel gives you. Excellent place to stay! "

"Beautiful room and bathroom at the front of the hotel. Had large balcony, shared with other rooms (although nobody else used it when we were there). Extremely comfortable room with efficient aircon. Food in the on-site restaurant was excellent, as was the hotel's home-grown/produced wine. Breakfast also great, with loads of choice. Staff polite and helpful. Some noise from passing trains when windows were open, but being near the station was a requirement for us, and this didn't impact our stay. "

"Everything was excellent, check in was a breeze, friendly service everywhere, great breakfast, excellent hotel restaurant, nice room with everything you need."
