Picturesquely nestled between stunning mountains and the glacial Lake Lugano, this cosy studio apartment is a great base for a couple or a solo traveller wanting to make the most out of all this beautiful Italian-speaking part of Switzerland has to offer. While the studio might be compact in size, it has all the comforts to make your stay a relaxing one, and the shared facilities make this place all the more attractive. Inside your home will greet you with a bright and inviting open-plan space, with a sofa which transforms into a comfy double bed. There’s also a dining table where you can share meals you'll easily rustle up in the kitchenette area – if you don’t feel like cooking, there’s also a restaurant and bar downstairs. Later, you may choose to step out onto your private balcony and enjoy a glass of wine in the evening or a freshly brewed espresso in the morning. Outside you’ll be close to the vibrant Piazza Della Riforma, the heart of the city, which you can reach in twenty minutes by walking. You’ll also find a charming local farmers’ market offering the best fresh produce. For business travellers, the apartment is just... an eleven-minute walk from the Centro Esposizioni Lugano exhibition centre and an eighteen-minute walk from the Palazzo Dei Congressi Lugano.

Local guide
About Switzerland
It’s easy to think of Switzerland as Europe’s goody-two-shoes older sister – the country is home to the United Nations’ European headquarters, luxury watches, and enviable economic stability. That’s before you even mention the romantic Medieval towns, fairytale castles and chateaus, placid alpine lakes, yodeling youths, and cuckoo-clock bell towers. Or the chocolate – oh the chocolate! – which is served on glass counters in old-fashioned shops across the land....
