We stayed in a family room with 6 people. There were 3 bedrooms with a total of 6 twin beds or they could be made into 3 king beds. It was nice to have space to spread out and to have a kitchenette. Breakfast was incredible and the staff were friendly and helpful. Lots of shops and restaurants in the area and about a 10 minute walk to the train/bus station. This is a great place to stay and I would certainly recommend if visiting Lucerne.

This was a good hotel overall. Staff were great. Bed was ok. Quiet. A fan was amazing! It’s a little far outside the main city (8min walk to the train station). Shower had great pressure. Room was very small.

A reasonable price hotel with a big bathroom and toilet. Excellent and friendly reception who explained key places of interest around the hotel. Kudo to the reception staff. Flexible check in and luggage storage facilities. Good spread provided in the buffet breakfast and great service staff. Walking distance to the central train station or a short tram/bus ride to the hotel. A scenic river in front of the hotel and in the old town. Would recommend anyone to book the hotel, especially with such courteous, cheerful reception staff to welcome you and is always helpful with any enquiry. Would book this place again in Lucerne.
