We came with a car, and we were so pleasantly surprised that we literally drove through the old city, it feels like you are living in the center of the best place in the city. the staff was super friendly, and the hotel was the most perfect place we ever been to. it's like somebody combed every inch and every experience a visitor will have and asked him/her self - how can this be perfect. I mean perfect room, amazing bar with a view of the river, beautiful vistas from the rooms, walkable to literally anywhere in 3 min or less. We saw tourist tour stop in front of the hotel and talk about the building. We've been to Lucerne 4 times already (from California) and this is from now on our number 1 place. ##### guy Stayed 2 nights in Nov 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Anna Dec 4, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities Great stay!! ##### Anna Stayed 2 nights in Nov 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Ricardo de la May 23, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Great place Perfect location and great view. Great service. Nice rooms, restaurant and lobby. ##### Ricardo de la Stayed 2 nights in Apr 2025 ### 6/10 Okay #### Marty Nov 11, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities Room was great. Large, had a TV, mini mini fridge, bath or shower tub. Food was great. Breakfast is $35 for hotel guests. That includes the buffet and the warm meals. To be honest the $20 in warm food is bettee spent than the $35. Water go buy at the local co op down the street. Hotel was great at booking activities for us. Only complaint I have is the staff in the restaurant. And clearly it was a big enough one for me to give it 3 out of 5 stars. Really the only part of our 13 day trip that was upset about. ##### Marty Stayed 3 nights in Nov 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Mercy Jul 16, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities This was an amazing property !

Excellent service, comfortable beds, and lovely restaurant with a view. However, even by European standards the room was very small. It was uncomfortably small, and I thought it was worthwhile mentioning it here. ##### Jo Anne Stayed 2 nights in Aug 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Nicole May 30, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Beautiful hotel in the heart of Lucerne with a lovely view of the river.
