"Grand hotel Dino is a gem! The property is beautifully appointed with friendly and helpful staff. Its location on the lake provides lovely views both during the day and in the evening. Do yourself a favor and be their guest."
"Pictures do not do this place justice. The garden view is amazing with visibility of lake lugano and the distant mountains. Such a beautiful hotel. The staff are very accommodating and friendly. I loved the breakfast, it's simple but very tasty. I highly recommend this hotel"
"Charming hotel with views of the lake, comfy room, great breakfast and next to Lugano’s train station (at the end of its platform 4) where the Bernina Express bus journey terminates at."

"We just stayed one night here before leaving to the airport. We have absolutely no complaints. The staff was so helpful and welcoming. Scheduled our free airport shuttle, confirmed our times, picked us up from the train station, reserved us dinner tables, everything they could do they did. When we got there our TV in the room wasn’t working and the staff went above and beyond to get it fixed. Couldn’t get it figured out at first and went and found ways to fix it and came up while we were at dinner with our permission to rewire the entire TV. The town is cute and I kind of wish we had an extra day to explore it a little bit. If you’re passing through on your last few days of travel or staying here for vacation, I don’t think you can go wrong."
"The hotel was pretty nice, set in gardens with a view of the lake. The room was a good size but could do with an update. Everything was clean, staff were lovely. We arrived pretty tired after a long drive and asked to use the spa and were told to go and seek out the spa and book it ourselves. I must admit, I didn't bother. Why they didn't get the spa to call our room or allow us to book at reception I guess we'll never know."
"A practical place to stay overnight before an early-morning flight. The shuttle service is fast and clean. Simple bar/benerages/coffe/drinks and limited food options. Less than 10 minutes from MXP airport (navigating on your own is challenging: my Google Maps gave me the wrong directions and sent me off-route disproportionately!)."
