Located in an exclusive building, this accommodation expertly combines comfort and style, offering a peaceful and welcoming atmosphere.
On the ground floor, a bright open space hosts a modern open-plan kitchen, enriched by a large peninsula with a dining table, and a relaxation area with a comfortable double sofa bed, perfect for accommodating two additional guests (Please note: the sofa bed is not prepared, we think it is proper to use the sofa during non-sleeping hours.

Despite its peaceful, nature-immersed atmosphere, the center of Lugano is just a 10-minute drive away, offering the perfect balance between tranquility and proximity to city services.
