La Swiss Vita

This cosy apartment is a great bolthole for exploring the wonderful city of Lugano. Whether you're here for business or pleasure, you'll love the convenience of this place, located within walking distance of the city's conference centres as well as the cultural highlights.

This home really does lend itself to any occasion, making excellent use of its space – you can get some work done on your desk by day, and pull it out to reveal a romantic dining space by night. Or, you can make use of the building's co-working space, perfect for holding meetings. And if work's the last thing on your mind, you can sit back, relax, and watch the smart TV on the cosy sofa while sipping on a fresh coffee, before heading down to the outdoor restaurant for breakfast.

Whether you're in Lugano for business or not, you'll fall in love with this unique city, where you'll find a blend of Swiss and Italian culture. Marvel at the mix of Swiss architecture and Italian piazzas in the Old Town, stopping into a spot for antipasto and a glass of wine. To really embrace the blend of cultures, don't miss the Museum of Art of Italian Switzerland, a twenty-minute walk away, and you can even hop on a boat that'll take you from Switzerland to Italy and back. There is so much to see and try, but the city's crown jewel is Lake Lugano. Make your way to the waterfront for romantic, beautiful walks, before enjoying a nice drink while gazing out at the smooth waters.
