The hotel's location is indeed priceless, even more so as it looks out onto the UNESCO World Heritage site of San Giorgio.
The little town of Melide is home to the famous architect Domenico Fontana and is situated at the foot of the Monte San Salvatore, amidst the exceptionally beautiful landscape of Lake Lugano.
The town became a place of national importance very early on, following the building of the dam in 1848.

This friendly hotel situated in a fantastic lakeshore location facing southwest was built back in 1920. Sunshine and water, the two elements that have made Ticino the paradise it is are present everywhere here - both in and around the hotel. The Riviera was designed with painstaking attention to detail and using local materials wherever possible, such as the chimney piece from Matteo Castelli, the chandeliers and granite staircase. Local sourcing is also one of the kitchen's guiding principles, as is evident in the locally produced wines and grappas served here.
