The service was excellent and we had a superb evening meal. We could walk to the lake, and there is an efficient bus service from just around the corner into town (and station). The disadvantage was the main road itself, which was noisy if you have the window open.

Luca was really nice when I arrived and helped me giving the right instructions to navigate around the city. The hotel is located in a nice area, it’s clean and the bed was extremely comfortable. The only downside about this hotel is the breakfast: expensive, with little options, the cereal was old, no fresh food, fruits. Disappointed!

Evening staff less than helpful although morning staff was friendly and helpful. Bedding was old and of poor quality and questionably clean. Towels were more like rags. Location was quite a bit from the center of town but a bus stop was close. Hardly a view of the lake due to over-grown trees and shrubs. I definitely would NOT stay here again.

The room was not cleaned properly, no AC in this hot day, no fridge, very noisy at night because our room on the 3rd floor was actually right on the street level due to the site slope reason, cars passed by all night. And front desk only accept cash not credit card for my city tax, don’t know why

Vi hade inte en så positiv upplevelse av Hotel Firenze. Vi fick tillgång till rummet 1,5 timme senare än vad vi hade kommit överens om. Det fanns ingen AC så rummet var alldeles för varmt samt att kuddarna var väldigt obekväma.

On en a pour son argent mais attention…
Dans un quartier périphérique de Lugano (mais ça reste à moins de 20 minutes en bus, dont l’arrêt est à 100 m de l’hôtel). On a aimé : le prix (on va pas se mentir, 100.- en pleine saisie pour deux, c’est presque sans concurrence) ; la vue, avec le lac à 200 m (de petites ruelles y descendent) ; la terrasse ombragée aux fauteuils confortables ; le petit balcon de la chambre ; la cuisine (très bon tajine au poulet de la cheffe) ; le vin (excellent rioja…une fois refroidi) ; l’amabilité du personnel. On n’a pas aimé : l’exiguïté de la chambre, qui fait qu’on se cogne souvent au lit (supprimer un meuble inutile et moche aiderait. Je dis ça…) ; le bruit (on dirait pas mais il y a beaucoup de trafic sur la route en contrebas et en plein été y’a des motards qui se croient en compétition) ; l’absence de climatisation ET de ventilation. Conclusions : comme j’avais lu les commentaires, nous avions pris deux petits ventilateurs, des bouchons pour les oreilles et un bandeau de nuit, dormi la fenêtre grande ouverte et ça s’est très bien passé malgré la canicule (22 degrés minimum, encore 26 à minuit). Mais faut prévoir ! Vous voilà donc prévenus.

Unser Eindruck
Als wir im Hotel ankamen war es schwierig uns verständigen zu können, da das Personal keine gute Englischkentnisse hatte. Das Zimmer war definitiv in die Jahre gekommen. Auf dem Boden wanderten Ameisen herum und allgemein Sauber war es in unserem Zimmer nicht. An sehr vielen Stellen war es staubig und dreckig. Der Geruch im Badezimmer war recht unangenehm und verteilte sich im ganzen Zimmer. 226 CHF und zusätzlich noch Übernachtungssteuern sind absolut nicht lohnenswert und weiterzuempfehlen. Gegessen haben wir nicht im Hotel, also essen ist im oben genannten Preis nicht einbegriffen.

Bedauerlich, entsprach nicht der Beschreibung.
Beide Betten krachten laut bei der kleinsten Bewegung, sobald man sich darauf auch nur setzte. Das Kopfteil des Bettes wackelte. Wir ahnten eine schlechte Nacht und gingen noch vor dem Abend wieder weg, weil auch die Bettwäsche alt war, unsauber und ungebügelt aussah. Beim Versuch uns zu verabschieden, war die Dame vom Büro nicht zu finden. Ausserdem ist die Lage des Hauses in der engen Kurve einer Hauptstrasse sehr starkem Verkehrslärm ausgesetzt.
