A Memorable Visit to Lucerne
We had a beautiful view over Lucerne over Hotel Des Alpes. Our room was very warm but fortunately we had a table fan. An electric kettle for coffee of tea would have been appreciated. The staff was warm and friendly. The hotel restaurant was excellent both for breakfast and for dinner.

Lovely hotel along the lake directly across from covered bridge. Food in dining room was very good but charging for every cup of small coffee in the am is a bit much. I asked for hot water and they were going to charge for that as well. The room was very clean but small. Staff are very nice.

Excellent hotel with superb views of chapel bridge? But no AC so on a 30C day the room on 5th floor was pretty hot. Left both doors to balcony open and fan on and it was doable.

As I was checking in, another guest was checking out. The receptionist asked him how he had liked the room. He said, "It was hot!" and clearly was angry. The receptionist made no reply. But, he was correct. No air conditioning and the room are hot. If you open the windows, there are no screens to keep out the bugs.

We had a room overlooking the covered bridge and canal. Very scenic. A deck would have been nice, but I think we would have paid more for a deck. Lucerne is absolutely stunning.

Excellent hotel on the river overlooking Chapel Bridge. Breakfast is very good with many choices on the menu. The hotel provided vouchers of $18.50 per person that we used for breakfast. The restaurant is on the river level with outside dining option. Best to buy excursions (like boat trips on Lake Lucerne) directly at the pier. The hotel does have an up charge.

Terrible place to stay!
I spent a little extra money to book a top floor romantic room for our 25th anniversary trip 6 months ago. We were hot & tired when we arrived on August 15, 2024 looking forward to a hot shower & cool room. The room was locked up tight. No air conditioning. It was the worst hotel we stayed at the entire 15 day tour. We couldn’t relax, we hardly slept the entire night. I told the young lady at the front desk the next morning what an awful night we had and we wanted to cancel our second night. She was cocky, stuck up, she only cared about the dollar. She couldn’t care less about our discomfort. She absolutely wouldn’t cancel our second night, (because “our website tells you we don’t have air conditioning” (no matter that I booked it 6 months ago!) They’re website certainly did not take the time to explain that the high floors facing south get beat with the hot August sun! This is an awful place to stay during the hot summer months! And awful customer service skills by the hot shot young lady! Disclaimer: There was a senior hostess at the counter when I requested to cancel our second night. She offer me two extra meal vouchers. I do appreciate her effort for customer satisfaction.

The hotel is in the heart of the city and very walkable. The staff were friendly and helpful. The restaurant was delicious and the vouchers were generous enough to cover a hearty breakfast. But I would encourage anyone considering a stay to head others’ warnings about the hotel temperature. It is *unbearably* hot inside the rooms in the summer. While opening doors is possible, we found that rooms with a bridge view receive direct sunlight and were quite noisy at night. I wished I had booked elsewhere. That being said, I can see how staying here in other seasons would be a comfortable and convenient experience.

If you love spending $300 to stay in a room that is 30 C or 88 degrees F with incredibly rude staff this is the place for you! Staff could not have been more rude - go find somewhere else to stay.
