Lugano is the largest city in the Italian speaking Swiss canton of Ticino and enjoys a wonderful lakeside location. It is a city of parks and flowers, with a historic, traffic free centre and a culture and cuisine that combines Swiss sophistication with Mediterranean flair. Lake Lugano is nestled between Lake Como and Lake Maggiore and can be easily combined as part of a multi-centre itinerary. Swiss operates flights via Zurich to Lugano airport, just 15 minutes’ drive from the centre, while Milan Malpensa airport is just 50 minutes away.

The grande dame of Lugano for over a century, the Splendide Royal is still the best hotel in the centre of town. The spacious public areas retain a slightly faded elegance from the golden era of travel at the end of the 19th Century.
