We've stayed at the il Lugano Hotel for 5 nights in February 2012. The rooms, service, front desk and concierge are excellent. Some of the things we appreciated: 1. Several restaurants within walking distance (Greek, Italian) 2. Post Office- less than one block 3. Walgreens drug store less than 5 minutes away 4. Blue Jeans Blues jazz club right down... More

Kind of a "strange" hotel. Originally built as condos so our room had a single continuous kiitchen area / sitting area / bedroom area. I heard from some locals I met during my 3 day stay that the Il Lugano was built as condos but that they didn't sell well. Those condo units that were sold are rented out when... More

Overall, I really enjoyed my stay. The location is fine. There are a couple of places nearby to get a bite to eat so that you don't have to get into the car. The room itself was fantastic. As other reviewers have pointed out, the front desk staff will kindly upgrade the room when possible. The views from the balcony... More

The rooms are huge and come with washer/dryer. The location is great with plenty of places to eat within walking. The car... More

We stayed at Il Lugano over Christmas. When we arrived, the valet who was working was rather rude to us, and continued to be that way through our entire 6 day stay. The inside of the hotel was nice. The room was big and we liked it. However, when we went to use the microwave, there was cheese crusted onto... More

I spent one night here. The room was very luxurious and modern with a kitchen and a roomy bathroom. I had to call the desk because I couldn't figure out the tv remote and someone came up within 5 minutes. One negative: there are a limited number of chaises for the canal and the air conditioning unit is close enough... More

We recently stayed at the Il Lugano for 3 nights prior to our cruise. We were with friends and family for my husband's 50th. As a travel agent, we travel frequently and have very high standards. I am pleased to say that Il Lugano lived up to all all expectations. The service was great and the rooms were amazing. Shelia... More
