Hotel Campione

The review

Hotel Campione is lakeside enclave on Lugano's shore, and that description holds across the property rather than only in its marketing. Set in Venice, Sanremo, and the Aosta Valley, it is assessed here on rooms, service, dining, position, and value.

Its natural audience is Lake Lugano stays. The features that define the stay are lake lugano frontage, enclave position and waterfront dining, and together they set both the strengths and the limits of the experience.

Our editors flag one thing above all others: an Italian enclave inside Swiss territory, with the currency quirks that implies. It is worth acting on at the point of booking rather than discovering at the front desk.

The features that matter

• Lake Lugano frontage
• Enclave position
• Waterfront dining
