I recently traveled with my "BFF" to Ft. Lauderdale for a weekend getaway. Our goal was rest and relaxation, because we were completely wiped out from the stress of work. We got this and more from our stay at the Il Lugano Hotel. The staff was awesome especially Alana and Marianne, who came up with the best recommendations on how... more

The hotel looks like a 4 star hotel, smells like a 4 star hotel and desperately wants to be a 4 star hotel but sadly, the staff is some of the worst, if not the worst, that I have encountered. I have stayed at many 4 and 5 star hotels and this is not one of them. The staff was... more

The room was unbelievable - beautiful, modern, comfortable (love the kitchen and huge balcony). The gym was decent, but the AC was broken the entire time we were there. The heat was almost unbearable! The walls of the rooms are INCREDIBLY thin. The people next door to us had a ton of people in it and their stereo was blasting.... more

Our family stayed here for a long weekend in May and overall, we were very satisfied. It was a very quiet atmosphere and staff was quite nice and professional. We had our own rental car and used the meters across the street. We only paid about $4 a day (at most). One tip is to be sure you are putting... more

Having booked this hotel on another site I visited Tripadvisor and read the reviews of ll Lugano. Having seen the photos of the hotel I thought that the reviews must be incorrect, how wrong I was. This hotel is overpriced, the service is the worst I have ever encountered and the location is not ideal. The swimming pool is in... more

We live in Ft. Lauderdale. However, due to a water leak, we had to be out of our home during repairs. In all, our stay extended to 20 nights. When we checked in, however, we were told that the hotel had mandatory valet parking at $25 per night. However, there was absolutely nothing on the website that indicated that there... more

We were booked into th Il Lugan for three nights before a cruise. After a long flight from the UK arrived at the Lugano at about 10pm. The hotel told us and lots of others that it had overbooked. It had arranged for us all to be moved to another hotel for one night and then expected us to return... more

We stayed here for one night pre- cruise March 2009. We arrived early as we were travelling from the west overnight. The front desk seemed to delight in telling us that check in was at 3- almost scolding us. We were given no info about Escalade or breakfast. We stored our luggage and came back at 3. We had to... more

We stayed at the Il Lugano on Feb 26th to the 28th for a pre cruise stay. We arrived at 4:30 pm to be told that the room was not yet ready so we waited, and waited and waited. Finally at 6pm after a long and agonizing discussion with the manager, he offered to treat us to appetizers and a... more
