Avevo prenotato in questa struttura soprattutto invogliata dalle foto, ma purtroppo appena arrivata, per motivi personali,ho dovuto disdire e alla reception, pur non avendo usufruito di nessun servizio e nemmeno messo piede in camera, mi hanno costretto a pagare la prima notte completa....(84 EURO) potevano almeno farmi pagare metà o anche meno non la notte completa dato che la camera non l'ho nemmeno vista....lo sconsiglio e sconsiglio vivamente di prenotare.... sicuramente non alloggerò MAI...

Mal schauen

Ich hatte nur ein Einzelzimmer und kann nur dieses Zimmer beurteilen. Das Preis- Leistungsverhältnis war sehr gut. Es gibt aber noch Verbesserungenspotential: Thermostatvenile an den Heizkörpern, Lichtschalter und Steckdosen am Bett, Entlüftung im Bad/WC. Das wäre mit weng Aufwand machbar. Der Empfang war sehr freundlich.

Tutto ok.

Abbiamo scelto l'Hotel Grotto Bagat per una piccola vacanza sul lago di Lugano e abbiamo fatto centro. Posizione buona,ampio parcheggio,camere comode con terrazzo vista lago,personale gentile. Pulizia generale e colazione completa con cappuccino del bar ci hanno soddisfatto ma la vera forza e' il ristorante pizzeria con piatti di qualita' e abbondanti,dalla pizza al pesce tanta scelta e tutto buono. Complimenti!!

Right overlooking the lake which is fabulous. We upgraded to lake view and I’d higjly recommend that. Hotel is over a restaurant. Hotel is upstairs and a little old & in need of a renovation BUT the lake view and lake surroundings were all you notice. We stayed 1 night & we’d definitely stay again Very reasonably priced. There was a portable air con Unit in the room for which we were very grateful as it was 29’/30’

Per fortuna abbiamo soggiornato solo una notte in questo hotel.. Trovate le formiche in camera e in bagno. La porta al balcone non si chiudeva. Ho prenotato una camera ,,vista montagna, ma non c'era nessuna vista in quanto la finestra aveva un vetro che non si vedeva proprio nulla.
