Very nice pizza in the restaurant. Good service also.
Breakfast area did not open until 8.00am. Ideally it should open at 7.00am.

It was a fine hotel (clean, friendly staff, nice rooms), but this was completely overshadowed by their poor performance on 2 points: the bed was too small for me and the breakfast was nothing more than basic.
(1) The 2 single beds in our room were 1.90m long, with a high footboard. I slept on a mattress on the floor and had a sore back for 2 days. If you're tall don't stay here ! (2) The breakfast was poor. No eggs and no fruit.

Hotel staff is very helpful and friendly. Restaurant serves good food during dinner and breakfast.
It takes 22 sharp curves to arrive at the hotel which is at the top of the hills. Do not advise to book this hotel in the winter without a 4x4 SUV.

Nice location in a small village, although it involves driving many switchbacks up a mountain above the town of Lugano (no views). The hotel and restaurant were very nice, layout and style much like a locanda in Italy. Staff friendly and very capable, outstanding food ranging from casual pizza to multicourse fancy dinners.
The website directions given were completely useless - we had to stop at a fuel station and ask for directions.
