My stay at the Swiss Diamond Hotel & Spa in Morcote had its highs and lows. The views over Lake Lugano were absolutely amazing, and I thoroughly enjoyed the spacious and clean rooms. However, I faced some challenges with service and the limited breakfast options that left me wanting more for the price I paid.

While I enjoyed the breakfast options available, they seemed standard for a five-star hotel without any standout hot items available unless additional fees were paid. The restaurant's quality was good, but I expected more variety.

The spa area was quite nice, particularly the indoor pool, which I found relaxing. However, I felt some aspects of the hotel could use a refresh.

My stay at Swiss Diamond Hotel & Spa was a mix of beautiful views and fantastic service, but it was marred a bit by the challenges of heat during my visit. The air conditioning in common areas struggled to keep up, which was uncomfortable. Still, the stunning lake views and comfortable room made up for it.

My stay at the Swiss Diamond Hotel & Spa had its ups and downs. The stunning views over Lake Lugano were truly amazing, making for a lovely backdrop. However, the room I stayed in felt quite outdated, with issues like noise from live music at night and not-so-great air conditioning. While the breakfast had a decent selection, I expected more from a place of this caliber. Overall, I wouldn't rush to recommend this hotel, but the location offers some potential.

I had a mixed experience at the Swiss Diamond Hotel. While the stunning lake views and excellent staff made a positive impression, I found the overall dining options expensive and somewhat lacking for the hotel's high standards. The room was comfortable, but cleanliness issues let down what could have been a perfect stay.
Rooms

My room was spacious and offered amazing views over Lake Lugano, but I noticed some cleanliness issues with the carpet and chair. The bed was comfortable, and the bathroom was a highlight with its jacuzzi feature, but it felt outdated for a supposed luxury hotel.
Service

The staff were generally friendly and attentive, which I appreciated. They remembered my name and preferences, but I expected a more enthusiastic service based on other reviews. The shuttle service was efficient, making it easy to get to Lugano.
Location
6.0
The location is beautiful, right next to Lake Lugano, but it did feel a bit remote. Yes, there were regular shuttles to Lugano and Morcote, but the last one back was too early for a night out. I found it a bit inconvenient that there weren't many dining options nearby.
Dining
6.0
Breakfast had a decent variety but felt repetitive, and the quality didn't quite meet my expectations for a five-star hotel. Dinner prices were steep, and while the food was good, I felt I was paying too much for what I received. The main dining experience was simply okay.
Facilities
7.0
The spa was nice, offering a pleasant atmosphere, but I was disappointed that the jacuzzi wasn't functioning properly. Public areas, including the pool, were well-maintained and provided a nice space to relax.
