For an important business lunch or a romantic dinner in Lugano, we suggest our restaurant "La Veranda". Elegant and refined, it overlooks Lake Lugano and the mountains. It serves a variety of dishes, from sophisticated and elaborate French cuisine to tasty, genuine Italian and Mediterranean dishes.

"Piano Bar":
Found alongside the entrance hall, it is an informal meeting place serving Italian regional specialities, snacks, aperitifs and cocktails. Live music from 19:00 until late in the evening.

The Splendide Royal is located on the main street along the lake. Riva Caccia connects with one of the most elegant shopping areas of Lugano, the Via Nassa. The city centre can be reached in a walk of just few minutes along the lake.

Open-air parking is available free of charge and garage parking is available at an additional cost.

The hotel opened in 1902 at the southern end of town, next to the lake, on the grounds of the 19th-century Villa Merlina, known for its spectacular gardens. The owners, the Fedele family, enlarged the existing structure and opened a 125-bed hotel, originally called the Hotel Splendide.

The hotel soon gained a steady clientèle among the wealthy Europeans who frequented this summer resort. In 1977 an Italian hotel company, Roberto Naldi Hotels, bought the hotel from the Fedele family and in 1983 they added a new wing with 53 guest rooms.

Today it is known as Lugano's leading hotel, with 94 guest rooms and a staff of 100 employees who provide meticulous personal service. The hotel inspires loyalty among its clients, with more than half the guests here usually being repeat visitors.
