Great place to stay.
A great place to stay. Close to everything, clean, breakfast included, and extremely helpful staff. Margaret was very helpful with suggestions for sites to see and restaurants. By the way, they were excellent suggestions.

You Must Stay here if you are going to Lucerne
What a fantastic place to stay. We were only in Lucerne for one night, but it was such a great experience,we wish it could have been a longer stay. Cristian, the night clerk was so friendly and helpful in giving us input on where to eat late on a Sunday night and some of the local favorites to try. We ordered some plum brandy and loved it. The room was spotlessly clean, with a fantastic view from the balcony. The breakfast in the morning was a wide range of options with everything fresh and appealing. It couldn't have been any better. Thanks for great memories of Lucerne.

Good location within walking distance to city
We got a room with a balcony and liked sitting on the balcony over the river. We did not see that the shades were on the outside of the windows until morning and the light in the windows all night kept us up - that was our fault for not seeing how to lower the shades. Great location within walking distance to everything including the train station.

Excellent4.0 / 5
Simple and convenient
Great location, facing the river. Quiet, a ten minute walk to train station. Convenient access to Musegg Wall, Chapel Bridge and Water Tower, all shops, cafés, and restaurants. In the heart of Lucerne. Free breakfast and free wifi very nice. Great housekeeping service daily. Front desk reception very friendly and all speak English. I'd recommend to anyone. Very basic and clean. Nothing fancy but it suited our needs.
