Property looks nicer online than in person. No air conditioning either which is rough when Switzerland is having a heat wave. Shower curtain kept falling off. Elevator is tiny. Wouldn’t stay here again. Surprised it has a 3 star rating honestly

The hotel is at a good location in the old town. Hotel is clean. However, it was noisy due to construction across the street. My bathroom shower/shampoo soap bottle was not filled so I had no soap to use while showering and couldn’t call front desk because it’s past 9 pm. 😣

Great location; very good breakfast! Janine served GF bread to my husband and he was happy! USB plugs in room were not working but we were fine. Good sized room; bathroom had a tub! I’m not a fan of the combined shampoo and body wash; I missed having some lotion and conditioner.

It was a lovely property to stay at. The lady at front desk was very friendly and helpful. The room was clean and spacious and had all the necessary amenities/toiletries. The view from my room was gorgeous as it looked out into Old Town. The one factor I didn't really like was that the cleaning team starts very early in the day (around maybe 8am) and the noise would echo through the hall to my room. I wanted to catch up on some sleep but wasn't able to due to the noise. The hotel location was very convenient. I would still want to come back to stay at this hotel the next time i visit Lucerne.

Good location

Perfect location, right in old town, lots to see and do.plenty of restaurants close by. I think the hotel was converted from an old house. The room is quite muggy and small insects fly in when you open the window. Overall it was a very good hotel.

Reception staff behavior – I found the front desk staff to be quite rude and unhelpful during check-in and throughout my stay. I expected more courteous and professional service. Lack of air conditioning – The room was uncomfortably warm, and I was surprised to find that the hotel did not provide air conditioning or any effective alternative. Uncomfortable mattress – The mattress was extremely uncomfortable, making it difficult to get a good night's sleep.

I was very happy with this hotel. the single room was small but I knew that and the good rate reflected it. and it was so clean and such a great location near everything in this walkable iconic swiss town. I came in straight from the train station, an easy walk, and i was immediately made so comfortable by the sweet young lady helping me get situated and checked in at the front desk. highly recommended for a cozy sleep in the heart of Luzern
