An Urban Oasis in the Heart of Lugano
In the centre of Lugano, just steps from the gentle buzz of the city and the main train station, you'll find the B5 Boutique Hotel. Outside, a ceramic façade that shimmers in the sunlight; inside, a space that defies easy definition. A place for those who appreciate the unexpected and enjoy being surprised, again and again, by a city with many faces.
At B5, your smartphone is the key
Your stay begins even before you arrive—relaxed and fully digital. Check-in takes place online, quickly and effortlessly. Once everything is ready, your digital room key is sent directly to your smartphone. It not only opens your room door seamlessly but also paves the way for a stay without detours.
From arrival to check-out, everything works independently and at your own pace. And for those who prefer a more traditional approach: physical key cards are always available. Because despite all the technology, people remain at the centre of everything we do.
The Perfect Base for Travellers
Whether you're exploring the city or strolling along the lakefront, enjoying culture or discovering local cuisine—the B5 Boutique Hotel is right where Lugano is at its most vibrant and most relaxed. Guests also benefit from the complimentary Ticino Card, which provides free access to public transport and discounts on excursions, museums, and cultural highlights.
Just a few steps away, restaurants, cafés, boutiques, and landmarks invite you to linger. And for guests arriving by car, public parking is available nearby.
