ibis budget Lugano Paradiso

ibis budget Lugano Paradiso

10/10 Excellent
"Checkin was straightforward and friendly, the hotels parking is ample and very convenient although overpriced (there is parking close by In a parking lot if you want to pay less and don’t mind a few mins walk) the breakfast was good but also overpriced for what it is. Rooms are spotless as well as everything else as this seems to be a recently built hotel. Free carbonated and still water on every floor was a nice touch and much appreciated."
