Lac Hotel

We cannot say enough good things about le lac hotel in Melide. It’s our third stay with them and we genuinely feel like you’re part of the family. Carlotta very kindly picked us up from the station showing they’re kindness and genuine concern for you’re comfort and welfare is their top priority which is rarely seen these days. We booked for 2 nights but had to extend and we’re up graded to the honeymoon suite which was incredible! So kind of them to do this. Apart from everything else being super comfortable, great location, free parking, strong wifi, the breakfast deserves an extra mention. When we stayed the hotel was quiet but the breakfast buffet selection was as if the hotel was full! Incredible selection, cold meats and cheese, smoked salmon, pastries, breads, cooked breakfast items, boiled eggs, full cereal range, I could go on! And the coffee is great too! Thank you as always for making our stays so memorable.

The Lac Hotel is fine hotel in an area that has plenty of charm and vistas to look at, but pricing can be acceptable to astronomic. We spent one overnight enroute to points south. It was conducive to where we needed to be and offered an overnight in a peaceful beautiful area. The price point was a tad on the high side but for the area you would be hard pressed to stay someplace less expensive with a view. The good points: a beautiful view even with rain and fog; room was tasteful albeit small; it had a mini fridge with complimentary soft drinks--nice touch; breafast was ok noting special but not awful as some other reviews, they do tend to go a little on the cheaper side with breakfast but it was sufficient. The not so good points: Parking. There is six spots and then you will need to walk about five minutes to the closest public outdoor spot--not horrible until it is raining; The bed had to be one of the worst beds I have slept in. If you like extra firm, you will love the bed. Honestly, they should just invest in a memory foam mattress topper or something. It spoiled an otherwise very pleasant stay. Overall, would likely stay again but would probably look in the area before booking.
