Locanda Gandriese, hotel in Gandria

Locanda Gandriese is offering accommodations in Gandria. The property is located 2.9 miles from Lugano Exhibition Center, 4.1 miles from Lugano Station and 8.9 miles from Swiss Miniatur.

It was located to a charming surrounding: narrow alleys, beautiful lake view, old stone buildings. The view from the room was very beautiful. You could almost feel the movements of the lake (waves) because the building was 0 from the lake.

ibis budget Lugano Paradiso, hotel in Gandria

Only 215 yards from Lake Lugano, Ibis Budget Lugano Paradiso features free Wi-Fi, a bar, and a restaurant. The center of Lugano is just under a mile away.

**Disappointing Experience at Ibis Budget Lugano Paradiso** My recent stay at Ibis Budget Lugano Paradiso was highly disappointing. The room lacked even the most basic amenities expected from a hotel; there were no slippers, soap, or even towels provided. Furthermore, the air conditioning was non-functional, making the room uncomfortably warm, and the electrical outlets for charging devices were scarce. The cramped space of the room also resulted in a lack of ventilation, leaving it feeling suffocating and reminiscent of a prison cell. Considering the exorbitant price charged for such substandard conditions, staying at this hotel is simply unjustifiable. I strongly advise against it and would not recommend it even to my worst enemy.

Hotel Federale, hotel in Gandria

This family-owned hotel is centrally located just a short walk from Lugano town center and its breathtaking lakeshore, and the famous Piazza Riforma with its many sidewalk cafés.

The location was great because it is only a few minutes walk to the train station as well as city center. We took the Bernina Express bus from Tirano to Lugano. From the Lugano bus station, cross the street and walk along the sidewalk towards the train station until you see the ramp that leads to the hotel. The hotel sign is hard to see as it is blocked by overgrown trees. The room we stayed at was not spacious enough for us and our luggages but we didn’t mind it since we stayed there only for one night and it’s a very well maintained and clean hotel. Breakfast was just the typical Swiss breakfast including but not limited to assorted bread, cheeses, bacon, scrambled eggs, cut up fruits.

    Typical nice village nestled on the slope of Monte Bré, right on the lake. Nice and quiet, it offers various opportunities to walk along the lake, climb the mountain, tour on boat, and drink and eat. It is a nice place to stay.

    Gandria is a pictoresque, romantic little village with beautiful lake views and a laid-back atmosphere. It is easily reached from Lugano by bus or boat. There is a good choice of restaurants and the Bottega di Gandria is a great place for an outside drink. There is not much in the way of sightseeing in the village itself but it makes a great base for exploring the beautiful surroundings.

    I liked the simplicity of the entire place,they cater for foreigners by providing travel and tourism magazines and also the free Lugano travel pass helps. One can also go up to the restraunt for dinner and Mellissa is wonderful and very helpfull and she will help you get to places that you want to visit.I will definately stay here again!My favorite place was the view from the top of Mont Brè..Its a good hike to the top and i loved every bit of it!And ofcourse the Bellinzona castles!Unforgettable

    A beautiful little village right by the lake shore.

    A beautiful little village right by the lake shore. Very quiet, but handy for Lugano, with several boats per day. The views are simply spectacular. There's a couple of good restaurants and a nice café right down by the lake.

    Quiet. Beautiful.

    Quiet. Beautiful. Can walk to Lugano (1 hour ) along ' olive route' which follows lakeside and is easy, level and very panoramic. Very steep narrow pedestrian paths in Gandria which are pretty but there is also a road that takes you dowm to centre if you need to drop off luggage.

    The property is extremely hard to find.

    The property is extremely hard to find. The GPS on the car could not locate it. There was no signage on the highway with the name of the property provided by Booking .com, which is a problem because it is located halfway down a cliff and is not visible from the road. We were lucky to have found it.

    Beautiful location in the quiet town. Pretty easy to get to Lugano via bus, ferry or walking along the Olive trail. Kitchen was well equipped and there were 3 nice restaurants in town to choose. Weather was very warm for May and owner purchased nice Dyson fans for us to make the space more comfortable which was greatly appreciated. Space is minimally decorated and furnished but has what you need to be comfortable and the views are just amazing. Good place if you're looking for something quieter and more low key. Check in was very easy.

    simply wonderful place with a stunning view! People in the hotel were extremely friendly, Ricardo, Ilaria and a young man with longer hair, whose name we don't know, but which as well was very friendly. There were many people at the wonderful restaurant and the rooms were fully booked, yet they all found friendly charming word. Really to recommend. The food was delicious, the terrace delightful. The bathroom though shared was clean and with no problem to be used.

    This place is magical, located at the top of Gandria. All the rooms have a lake view, and is perfect for enjoying the slow life at the village. Our room was tiny but comfortable, and the hosts made our trip unforgettable thanks to their hospitality. We would definitely suggest booking a dinner at the restaurant to taste local specialities and wine. It was a truly beautiful, heartwarming experience, and we would definitely love to come back.

    The place is one of best value stay we had with a great location, beautiful view and very clean. As it states on their site, there is no staff available for services but check-in is efficient, and a plenty of snacks in the small common area. We stayed only one night as a transit from Switzerland to Italy.

    A very simple room with a brilliant view located within a quaint section on the outskirts of Lugano. Quiet and peaceful. Pack light as you will need to walk to the hotel via cobble stone stairs. Shared bathroom (as expected) but all very clean and the other guests were very respectful in the shared spaces.

    Everything was wonderful… We were in love with the view from the balcony, the staff was very caring and kind! Gandria is such a beautiful location, it feels out of time! If you don’t mind shared toilets nor shower inside the bedroom (not in a separate room), you will definitely enjoy your stay!

    Great location, just above the lake. Shared bathroom, but there is fridge and a sink basin in the room and a nespresso machine on the hall. Tip. if you come by bus, get out at Gandria Paese (not Strada) Tip 2. Walk the path to Lugano! Really easy and It has amazing views!

    Wonderful place with an incredible view. There is a small balcony to sit, drink, eat and enjoy the view of the lake. A small hike along the lake brings you to the city of Lugano. Gandeia and the hotel are just marvelous places.
