Guest Reviews
- Vijaya Kumar (10/5): - A bit pricey...but exlent
- Carol (10/5): -
- Natalia (10/5): -
- Gary (10/5): - Perfect location for train travellers, great view - loved the outside patio!
- Jaroslaw Jan (9/5): -
- faraj (8/5): كل شي تمام بس الدخول الذاتي غير واضح - وسع الشقه الموقع يحتاج تركيز
- Kerstin Jeanine (10/5): -
- Tove-Christina (10/5): - Skøn lejlighed og en dejlig terrasse med udsigt over søen. Kort afstand til togstationen og 5-10 min gang til byens smukke centrum, hvor der er mange gode restauranter.
- Kevin (10/5): Schönes Apartment im Zentrum vom Lugano. - Super Unterkunft, schnelle und unkomplizierte Schlüsselübergabe. Für mich war die Matratze ein bisschen zu weich, sonst alles hervorragend.
- Gazmen (10/5): Ideal für ein paar Tage - Das Apartment ist perfekt ausgestattet – es fehlt wirklich an nichts. Besonders hervorzuheben ist die Sauberkeit, alles war blitzeblank. Der Fernseher bietet alle gängigen Streamingdienste kostenlos. Der Blick auf den Luganer See, tagsüber wie nachts, ist traumhaft. Altstadt und Promenade sind direkt um die Ecke und bequem zu Fuß erreichbar. Leider war die Parkplatzangabe irreführend – angegeben als inklusive, musste er bei der Buchung für 25 CHF extra bezahlt werden. Zudem fehlten klare Infos, wo genau der Schlüsselsafe zu finden ist und in welchem Stockwerk sich das Apartment befindet, was die Anreise unnötig erschwert hat. Das Apartment liegt direkt am Bahnhof, dadurch war es bis spät in die Nacht sehr laut.
- Yi-Ting (10/5): - 離車站近,view很好,設備齊全,屋主給的資訊詳細,唯一小缺點是房間有一間沒冷氣,雖然有功能很好的電扇,我們那時也是溫度剛好可接受而已,如果再熱就不行了
- Carlos Eduardo (10/5): Perfect. Fantastic apartment, fantastic city and fantastic host - Absolutelly everything. The apartment is fantastic and Solongo is an amazing host.
- Thomas (9/5): Great for a family stay and like home comfort - Nice view / good location
- Khaled (10/5): - Everything
- Naser (8/5): - نظيفه و مرتبه و إطلالة البحيرة بعيد عن السنتر و السعر مرتفع
- Hui (8/5): Great view and clean, but go uphill to reach the apartment - Clean, great view Need to climb lots of steps uphill to reach the apartment
- Jiayi (10/5): Wonderful stay in Lugano - The apartment is perfect for families with babies. It is equipped with anything you could possibly need like baby bath tub, even nursing chair with nursing cushion. Space was large, clean and the view was incredible. It is very close to the train station but the shortest way is through several flights of stairs as it is uphill. The host was very kind to pick us from the train station when she found out we had a baby and elderly parent with us. Otherwise, rolling our luggages uphill would have been a challenge for us on our first day. We had a great stay! Only gripe is that the rooms were quite stuffy with the windows closed. We left the windows open at night but that also let in a lot of outside noise which made it tougher for our baby to fall asleep. But it was still fine overall.
- Verena (8/5): Will come back ! - Very bright light with stunning view, loved the kitchen and balcony Bathroom tiny and second bathroom felt like showering in the laundry in a bath sink
- Rajeev (7/5): Value for Money. - Squeaky clean apartment. One bedroom has a double bed whilst the other has two single beds with a crib. None have attached bathrooms. Nice view to the station. The owner was available on the phone late night also to help us locate the property for check in. If you have luggage then one can’t access the short cut staircase as they are many. The road going to the apartment is then a distance.
- Olga (9/5): Superb - Very convenient
- Gowthaman (10/5): Access to city centre , train station , safety and beautiful views are all the positives . - The landlord was very helpful in getting us checked in . Would highly recommend. Nil
- Anuswadi (9/5): Worth over all ! - Facilities are modern fully equipped, complete with all utensils. Scenery from terrace are superb. Too many stairs to carry our luggage for Seniors like us the distance between Lugano train station to our apartment .
- Amir (10/5): Exceptional -
- Soliman (10/5): Exceptional - Modern, clean, view, location, and accessibility.
- David (10/5): Exceptional -
- Anna (9/5): Superb - very good location, beautiful apartment. The landlady is easily reachable and very helpful. We spent a great week end there with our sons and their friends. nothing
- Manijeh (10/5): Perfect stay for our family at a beautiful location - Everything! The central location and view were spectacular. The apartment was fully stocked and we had everything we needed for our family of five. The beds are very comfortable and there were plenty of supplies for all of us. Sologno was an amazing host throughout and made sure we were extremely comfortable either a personalized welcome. Thank you for everything! Nothing!! It was perfect - and I don’t say that lightly.
- Claudia (10/5): Perfect, very central & super comfortable place to stay! Wish we could have stayed longer! - Super easy check-in, also for our last-minute booking and late arrival!
Loved the light & view from the lounge windows! Beds were comfortable and the room temperatures great! Perfect for a family getaway and very central, everything can be explored by foot, the car can be left at the property. We liked it a lot, if there is anything to mention, perhaps that you can hear the trains.
- Siau (10/5): An amazing resort home. Would love to stay longer <3 - Space and location. Mountain View, beautiful sunrise. Host was very thoughtful and everything was provided for. Nothing.
- Oliver (9/5): Superb - Great location - easy access to city
- Abdulkadir (10/5): Exceptional -
- Manish (6/5): Pleasant -
- Khalfan (10/5): Exceptional - Everything was perfect, The location and the apartment was spacious with all the things you need. The attention to the minor details such as games for kids and the baby chair and the kitchen was filled with all the necessary items. Nothing everything was amazing
- Olivier (10/5): Exceptional -
- Liz (8/5): Great location and super comfortable apartment - Great location close to the train station. Clean and comfortable accommodation with lovely view of the lake. Nothing
- Dai (9/5): Nice 2 BR apartment with good views. - Location is very near to train station if you cut thru 2 flights stairs at the back. The apartment is still conveniently accessible via stairs-free walkway via the main road. Check with host on the route to take if you are traveling with luggage.
- Robert (10/5): Gorgeous Stay in Lugano - Our hostess Solongo was gracious and very helpful, accommodating our early check in request and providing every amenity you can imagine. The apartment is huge, bright, and well appointed. Absolutely nothing. It was perfect !
- Tipwal (10/5): Impressive - The modern design that looks cozy comfortable and clean. Will come back again if l have a chance. Nothing.
- Linh (10/5): Enjoy the house. Highly recommend. - It was very closed to the Lugano station. The house was very well organised. The house had everything you needed. We had to go upstairs very high to get there. It was not mentioned Unit 4 in this apartment for us to find the house easily.
- Stephen (7/5): Good -
- Carolyn (8/5): We had a very comfortable stay and would stay again if we are ever in the area again. - The property was in walking distance from the train station. The property had all the amenities needed for our stay. The neighborhood was quiet. There were restaurants nearby. We had good communications with the property owner.
- Yichen (10/5): Exceptional - Having good view.
- Shauna (6/5): Pleasant - Centrally located, air conditioning, clean A downstairs window was broken, meaning that we could not leave any valuables there for fear that the apartment could have been accessed
- Soumitra (7/5): Good - Extremely helpful owner, excellent location and a well furnished, clean apartment. It would have been an excellent choice during winter months. Basement apartment, very high temperature inside without proper airconditioning on a very hot and humid day in Lugano. Opening the two small windows or the main door invited insects and mosquitos.
- Pimkae (10/5): Nice, spacious and clean apartment. - Solongo sent us the code to retrieve the key to the apartment ahead of time. Very easy and convenient. The place is clean, spacious and with the nice view of lake. The place is fully equipped with kitchen, washer, dryer and all things we need. The parking is right in front of the building. The location is convenient to explore the town. Our host, Solongo, is the best! We wish we could stay longer.
- Gustavo (9/5): Imperial of Lugano: Super Choice for an Appartment - The host was superb in all ways. The house is very well equipped and organized, with sympathy add-ons that are not normal in this type of renting.
The location is very good, as it is near downtown (5-7 minutes on foot) but sufficiently away from confusion. There was nothing we didn't like.
- Sharron (10/5): Exceptional -
- Dmytro (9/5): Superb -
- Filip (10/5): Exceptional - Very clean and extremely equipped appartement. Beautiful view. Check in/out via key box, but all was sufficiently clear. The appartement is just above the train station which is up hill, so one needs to climb many stairs to get home (15 min from old city center), but probably also the lowest row of appartements where you can actually park a car. Free parking was major plus, liked the fact that they had coffee, olive oil, and other basic stuff for cooking. Good quality for money, considering the Lugano prizes.
- Sara (10/5): Perfect stay! -
- Doron (10/5): Exceptional - Beautiful apartment, Amazing view and much more.
- Hussam (9/5): The place to stay in lugano - Honestly, everything. The place is well maintained. The owners have put real effort to make sure everything a family needs is available at the house. The quality of equipment and consumables is top. The place is 4 min walk to the train station and 3 min walk to the bus stop. The place is air-conditioned with a wide balcony that had a nice view of lugano. For our next visit to lugano, we will definitely stay there again. A good location map would've made our arrival smoother. Google Map was not giving the right coordinates as per the address in booking.com.
- Sungyong (10/5): Exceptional - - Kind and responsive host
- Air conditioner
- Nice Location
- Clean room
- Private parking
- Everything else Nothing
- Napaporn (10/5): Perfect place - Everything is good. The host is very nice. The apartment is very clean. We really love staying here. We asked for a fan. They quickly brought the fan into the apartment. Nothing
- Jinghua (9/5): We love this place very much, it's clean and neat, with beautiful view and has everything you need. -
- Alexander (10/5): Exceptional -
- Elizabeth (7/5): Good - Very close to the station It was very hot and there was only a fan which didn’t cool the room down. I had checked there would be air conditioning but hadn’t realised this could mean just a fan
- Caspar (9/5): A great place to stay near the railway station and city centre - excellent host as well :-) -
- Kishor (10/5): Amazing apartment and owner stayed in touch throughout our stay! - The apartment is very clean and very equipped. Climbing the number of stairs, especially coming from station and town. But that's not to do anything about property.
- Barbara (7/5): Great location, very clean and safe - The property was extremely clean and the distance to the train station made it easy and safe. There is no air conditioning and it was quite humid. Also it stated two beds. The one “bed” was a sofa/futon and it was not fit for an adult to sleep on.
I also felt a little misled with the description and pictures / reviews. The title of the listing changed after I booked to say “different apartments”. On the listing one apartment is very nice , 2 bedrooms with air and a beautiful view. The apartment we stayed in was not like that at all.
- Bing (10/5): Super comfortable - This apartment is so amazing. The location is very close to the train station. The apartment is well refurbished that everything is very modern. The owner put so much effort on the details that we could find everything we need in the apartment. living here makes us feel even cozier than at home. It is highly recommended.
- Ian (10/5): A wonderful apartment, with balcony and view to match - We stayed in the 2 - bedroom apartment for 2 nights. It's a lovely spacious, airy apartment, fitted with all amenities, including washing machine. 2 bathrooms, 1 with a bath and the second with a shower. Spacious lounge and dining, delightful kitchen, stocked with essentials. Large balcony with comfortable furniture to relax on and soak in the super view over Lugano, the lake and the mountains.
Friendly, helpful hostess; thank you Solongo Nothing.
- Taylor (10/5): Exceptional - The view of Lugano was incredible from the outdoor patio. The location was great - right near the train station. Communication with the host was very easy and helpful videos were provided showing the route to the apartment from the train station and how to access the building/apartment. There wasn't air conditioning in one of the bedrooms, and the air conditioning in the main bed room wasn't working. The pull out sofa bed also was more of an extended large sofa, rather than a typical pull out couch that unfolds into an actual mattress.
- Daniel (10/5): Bright, clean and spacious apartment with a nice balcony and awesome view! -
- Julie (9/5): Beautiful view and very clean apartment! - Very clean and excellent view! All the steps back and forth to the train station.
- Michael (9/5): Superb - Clean, spacious and had a washer and dryer. Nice view. Maybe a few more instructions.
- Amal (10/5): Perfection - I have no negative things to say about the apartment. Everything was perfect from the apartment itself to the view of the lake and the location that was 3 walking minutes away from the train station and about 15 walking minutes to the center of Lugano. Free parking was available. Every small and big details were thought of and provided for us. I’ll certainly come back again.
- Norlida (10/5): Exceptional - Excellent. We all loved everything about this apartment. It has everything you need. The view is stunning.

The place was clean, and the sheets and towels smelled lovely. If there are 3 or 4 guests, the couch becomes the bed, and it was comfortable. The shower was great. We felt completely safe there.
- Ana (9/5): Highly recommended - Great location near the train station, clean and spacious apartment with everything we need. Host very responsive and communicative.

- Purijai (10/5): Best of Choice in Lugano - the location, just right off the train station. The host was following up and providing support all times during the stay. There was nothing to complain about in our room. It would be highly recommended for family or a group of friends.
Enjoy Lugano! Just only make extra time if you have large baggage. Also, if you come with the kid who are so enjoy for coloring everything. All rooms were clean and clean... Nothing at all to complaint
- טל (10/5): The best facility experience - This is the finest facility I've ever visited. It's spacious, incredibly modern, impeccably clean, and superbly equipped. The neighborhood is fantastic and exceptionally safe, even at night. The apartment is conveniently located very close to the train station and just a few minutes from the city center. Additionally, there is private parking available very close to the property.
I inadvertently overlooked mentioning the view, which is truly remarkable. nothing
- Lavinia (9/5): Superb -
- Cynthia (10/5): AMAZING - The apartment was amazing, I loved everything about it. The location is perfect too. However I wish the host was more flexible with the check out times especially if there is no clients coming over that day. We wanted to check out late but she didn't allow it until I offered to pay extra. I know it's not mandatory her However I feel checking out at 10am is too early. We travel a lot and this was by far the best apartment we've stayed at but also the only one with the check out as early as 10am.
With that being said, I will visit this apartment again because everything else was just perfect 👌 The apartment is perfect. Only the check out time should at least be 11.
- Maura.m (8/5): Very good -
- Matteo (8/5): Very good - Close to the train station.
The host was very kind.
Clean room.
All necessary facilities inside
- Rafael (10/5): Excellent value for Lugano. - Everything was nice … felt like we stayed in a high-end hotel suite. Nothing … we didn’t even mind the amount of stairs one needs to take to get to the street from the train station … we needed the exercise .. lol
- Bledar (9/5): Superb -
- Taehyun (10/5): Exceptional -
- Amanda (10/5): Beautiful apartment with breathtaking views. - The apartment was spacious and beautiful. Amazing views of the lake. Location was great, walkable distance to the town centre and the train station was only few minutes walk away. Nothing. Everything was perfect.
- Scott (9/5): Superb -
- Pierangelo (8/5): Very good -
- Justine (10/5): Fresh apartment great view - Excellent apartment. Large and extremely clean with excellent facilities. Wonderful view. Parking great. Close to train. Fully equipped kitchen and laundry. We booked last minute. Only improvement is to clean provide a map with directions as a little difficult to locate in car.
Many thanks lovely stay
- Roman (10/5): Great location in close distance to the city. - The apartment was great... close walk to the train station and the city of Lugano.
