The location from the train station was easily walkable as was the Chapel Bridge and Jesuit church. There was an abundance if restaurants nearby. The hotel beds were very comfortable and the room was pretty spacious.

Central location so very noisy. There does not seem to be air con so can get hot but if you leave window open it is very noisy. One night they seemed to be servicing the lift at around 5.30am in the morning which sounded like loud crashes. Would not stay here unless you can sleep through loud noises.

Great location! Our room was hot. Only welcoming staff was the young gentleman in the afternoon/evening. Morning front desk help was arrogant and rude and so was the lady in restaurant for breakfast so we ate elsewhere.

This property is perfectly located in the heart of Lucerne & easily accessible via public transport. The issue we encountered was that it was extremely uncomfortable in the rooms due to no ventilation and no air conditioning which resulted in us struggling to get any sleep. I wouldn’t recommend staying here in summer.

The location was excellent! Walkable to many shops and restaurants and the lake. Take a swim. It’s beautiful. If you’re bringing a car, getting to the hotel is really tricky and you have to drive on what you think are pedestrian only streets!! Once you get to the hotel, staff parks your car and returns it to you when you want to leave.👍

Nice hotel in the downtown area. No A/C, but they do provide fans. Nonetheless, my partner struggled to sleep at night, as it was very hot during our stay.
