Wow! Just the place to stay if visiting Lucern - transportation to and from city is complimentary. The hotel is on the water and has all the facilities. The hospitality is top notch. What made our stay totally memorable is our interaction with Vanessa at the front desk. Any company would be so fortunate to have an employee like Vanessa. We loved out stay.

This is a perfect hotel on the lake
The hotel was beautiful and in a picture perfect spot on Lake Lucerne. The service was perfection. Vanessa welcomed us and helped us learn more about the city so we could orient ourselves. We are so appreciative of their attention to detail to make your stay not just comfortable, but memorable.

This is a beautiful property! We were in Switzerland for 10 days and although we were only at this location one night it was hands down the nicest room of the stay. The lake view room was so beautiful. Great location and very convenient for travellers as the bus station is right outside the building.

Unbelievably beautiful location on the outskirts of Luzern, only 10-15 minutes away by (free) bus or car. The building is a bit dated but renovated appropriately. Very professional staff. Bus and ferry boat(!) stop right there. Wished we had brought our (gravel) bikes. We only had (good) breakfast once there but delicious (game) dinners at normal prices in very classy interiors within 10 minutes from there at hotel/restaurant Waldegg and restaurant Eichhof.

Disliked: Staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The staff was patronizing and condescending; no help. The room was hot; the blinds had not been lowered by the cleaning crew so on a hot day with no AC, it was stifling. I had upgraded the room from a basic room but it was in the attic where it would be the hottest. The description says "hill view," which is really up against a hill filled with homes.

I think this hotel might have been taken over by a new owner since we visited years ago. The staff were friendly but seemed a little unsure and the place seems a bit run-down. The view and direct access to the lake are superb but I was disappointed to be asked to pay extra for breakfast, the service at dinner was slow and there is no air conditioning in the rooms which made for a hot night.
