The hotel has certainly seen better times; it is clean and a parking opportunity just on the opposite side of the road, but that´s what there is to tell. Old room´s, awful smell. However in case you are travelling on small budget it might be an option, but really only then.

What's good about it: - Great view, nice location, even if not downtown. - our room was clean. - breakfast is included and it's OK for the room price. What's not good: - Floors are EXTREMELY creaky (deafeningly loud!) - Not all the people in the reception are helpful (one lady was extremely friendly and helpful, but another guy: we... More

There is good and bad to share. The hotel is Eccentric, which can be good. well located, beautiful views. but you don't earn a "3" for beautiful views. Easily the worst music ever in the dining rooms/restaurant for every visit: non-stop Britney Spears - why!? and the indoor smoking rooms leaked smoke throughout the hotel. I noticed it the moment...

We stayed at Hotel Victoria au Lac in November 2012. The hotel once had it golden era but stuck there - and did not do any refurbishing or modernization since it was built -. The decoration is old, but the hotel is clean and everything works. We stayed in a room with a beautiful view to the lake. Breakfast was... More

My husband and I chose this hotel for the location when our first choice only had rooms available for two of the three nights we were in Lake Lugano. We paid 205 CHF which included all taxes and breakfast for two. This cost was a bit more than our usual budget, but we decide to "go for it" and splurge.... More

This is the sort of hotel that does what it says but with no big frills. Rooms are average, bit dated and basic but nice and clean - we did have to ask for extra pillows as there were two VERY small pillows on the bed. but the view from our room was spectacular. We have a toddler so once... More

I really enjoyed staying here. Tony at the desk was very helpful and friendly. I loved looking out the tall windows at the lake (and the fountain). I liked walking along the lake to get to the town. I found no problem with the breakfast - they offered everything that every other hotel offers. Tony recommended a fantastic experience for... More
