The apartments are served and accessible by the historic Monte Brè Funicular, which connects the centre of Lugano with the neighbourhoods on the mountain until it reaches the Vetta, which contributes to an overall unique experience. About a 20-minute walk from the “Treasures of the Summit,” the picturesque Brè neighbourhood, with its cobblestone streets and quaint old houses, is known to have been a place of inspiration for many artists.

Art enthusiasts can visit the famous museum of artist Wilhelm Schmid. For nature lovers and hikers, there are numerous trails and paths suitable for all levels of physical fitness.
Attractions such as the village of Gandria and SwissMiniatur are within a 10- to 15-minute drive.

The lively Piazza della Riforma, full of cosy bistros and cafés, is just 25 minutes away by car and offers a great spot to unwind. If you’re a jazz enthusiast, don’t miss Estival Jazz, a free open-air festival held in Piazza della Riforma each summer. It’s a must-see event for music lovers in the heart of Lugano.
