Reviews and Ratings
I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The room was decent but lacking some amenities like air conditioning and a refrigerator, which was a bit disappointing. However, the service from the staff was exceptional, and they even managed to secure tickets to a sold-out concert for us. The location was convenient for exploring the town, although the dining options were a bit confusing. The hotel facilities were sufficient for a comfortable stay.
The hotel is nicely located close to Luzern main station with a lovely view of the lake. The rooms are comfortable but lack some amenities. The service was a mix of impolite interactions for large groups and kind assistance with baggage. The location allows easy exploration of key sights in Luzern. The dining experience offers simple options, but the quality could be improved. Overall, a decent choice for its value.
I had a great stay at the hotel with its fantastic location close to the city center shops and restaurants. The room was nice but could use some modernizing. The service was excellent overall, although there was one small hiccup at breakfast. The dining experience offered a nice selection of Swiss delights. Overall, a good value for the money.
The hotel offers big and spacious rooms with beautiful balconies overlooking the lake. The cooling system doesn't cool the room but provides a scenic lake view. The service is top-notch with staff going above and beyond to assist. The location is convenient, close to public transportation and a pleasant walk to the town center. The dining experience is average but indulgent pastries stand out. Overall, a charming stay with a mix of pros and cons.
I had a pleasant stay at the hotel with friendly service and a convenient location near the Swiss Transport Museum. The rooms were spacious and had a nice TV, but could benefit from updating. The dining was simple, and the facilities were adequate for my needs.
I absolutely loved my stay at the hotel! The rooms were big, comfortable, and extremely clean, although they were somewhat basic. The location was perfect, allowing me to explore the waterfront, the Swiss Transportation Museum, and the charming bridges of Luzern with ease. Despite the amazing views from my balcony overlooking the lake, I found the dining options to be a bit mediocre, not matching the high standards set by the beautiful surroundings. The service, unfortunately, left much to be desired, with impolite and unhelpful staff interactions taking away from an otherwise delightful experience.
