Lac Hotel

Room was on the lakeside with a very nice balcony. Able to enjoy the beautiful view.

This was a return visit and we brought family with us. We love this small friendly hotel with the most beautiful terraces with lake view rooms. The location is convenient to see the sights of lake Lugano and located in the sweet little town of Melide. The breakfast is delicious and served right over the lake! I highly recommend this special location.

The place was so nice and they gave us big room in addition to that very parking and breakfast was included.The view from the balcony was amazing

location, dinner at the restaurant, Breakfast

Parking was difficult.

Friendly staff, amazing location and an even better view.

Good price, nice and friendly staff, good food service and excellent location.

What we liked:Room upgrade for free, even if the suite was not in the same building. Position was nice, just in front of the lake.Spacious room and bathroom. Cleanliness of towels and room.Sauna and jacuzzi pool in the same room (even if we didn't used them, we appreciated the room's upgrade).Good breakfast. Nice and kind staff.

What we didn't liked:Empty soap container in the shower and one very small shampoo container available. Heater was not sufficient to have a warm temperature during the night. No privacy in the bathroom, due to the lack of curtains on the window (same issue in another window in the room).TV with issues in colours.Inadequate hairdryer.

This hotel spells hospitality with a capital H!Today is my birthday. Yesterday, we checked in. We were tired and I really needed a coffee. We finished the check-in and the friendly owner served us two cappuccinos for free. We also got a free room upgrade.He also must have taken note of the date on my ID. This morning at breakfast, the server brought me a tasty piece of Schwarzwälder cake with a lit birthday candle and wished me a happy birthday ?. Those little things. That's hospitality.Mille grazie!In other things, the view is exceptional, the hotel staff kind, good breakfast. Please take note, the hotel writes in the description that there is a small lift. They do mean it. The lift will take two suitcases or two average sized people but not both. We've had an excellent stay and will happily return!

Fantastic lakeside location; Great apple strudel for breakfastGreta rooftop terrace as part of our rooftop suite enabled sunset suppers in the open air in March !!!

Parking is a bit tight; Breakfast waiter needs to remember to smile and treat guests better

Fantastic location, friendly staff, good food. All good.

Fab location, amazing views over the lake. Staff welcoming and helpful.

Beds somewhat uncomfortable tbh ?

Nice location, friendly staff, no charge for the dog

The location is perefct and very accesible by car. The suite at the top is stunning with absolutely wonderful views. The hotel is lovely and the staff are very friednly and courteous. We stongly recommend.

We stayed over new Years Eve and there were x2 families who partied just about all night. we understand it was new Years Eve but noise unit 3.30am is not reasonable. We will however be back but not for New Years.

Friendly staff, nice breakfast, clean rooms. Maria was super, sweet and helpful. We will definitely come back again.

Location was good

Too much bugs and mosquitoes, you cannot open the window at all because once you open all bugs will come to the room

Friendly and helpful staff, immaculate room, good location, fabulous restaurant for dinner and a very good breakfast included with the room rate

Absolutely nothing

We had a fantastic stay! The location is perfect, and the staff was very welcoming. The breakfasts were delicious, and to our delight, we were upgraded to a room with a stunning lake view at no extra cost. The front desk even provided us with complimentary tickets for the regional train and bus, making it incredibly easy to get around. Though the parking area is small, we had no trouble parking our car and used the train for all our travel. It was convenient and fast—an overall wonderful experience!

Very small parking. Small lift.

Nice location with great view on the lake, clean hotel, welcoming and friendly staff.

Room was a bit noisy. Could hear another guest talking on the phone till late.

Great setting on the lake spectacular view .Cleanliness was impeccable and very good location

Everything

Driving in to Melide from the French alps didn't make it look promising as a place to stay for the three days that we had booked. But looks can be deceptive and it turned out to be a really wonderful location for exploring Lake Lugano and the surrounds. The hotel and restaurant were lovely and the view over the lake was beautiful from the room. The room was spacious, clean and well laid out and breakfast was really good. The train station was an easy walk from the hotel and the Ticino ticket gives free train transport, so visiting Lugano was very easy and definitely worth doing. We can really recommend the funicular from Paradiso to San Salvatore (with the walk back down to Melide being an unexpected bonus). The cogwheel train trip to Monte Generoso was an unexpected delight and we would have loved to walk from there back to Bellavista, but unfortunately didn't have the time. Also stopping off at the Cala Melide after our various trips was a real delight, really friendly service, good wine and beer, great Pinsa and a fabulous view!
