Beautiful spacious room with a lovely view, and the man at the front desk was really friendly and helpful, would definitely stay here again.

You have to walk to the Monopol sister property reception depending on the time of arrival/to resolve some issue. No AC in some rooms ; they told me they are not required to provide it because it’s a 3 star. I booked thru Expedia, who said there was AC. I was charged extra for an additional bed, which was more like a stretcher.
The internet was very spotty. I had to re-log in at least 10 times in 24 hours because it kept kicking me off. Otherwise it was great. The staff was helpful and the location was great.
We reserved and paid for our room months in advance. When we arrived on a rainy night after traveling the receptionist informed us that they were over booked and they “upgraded” us to a hotel across town and all we had to do is go back out in the rain with our luggage and wait for a bus. Our”upgraded” hotel was near nothing at we spent hundreds of dollars over the course of 3 days on cabs and walked miles to get our group back to the area where we were originally booked, for restaurants a sight seeing. Another family was trying to check in at the same time and were also sent across town in the rain. Terrible experience. Do not book here and expect to have a room. They did nothing in they way of compensation, they just expected us to accept their incompetence and lack of professionalism. Zero Stars. Less if possible.
The hotel is next to a night club and a pizzeria. You can hear the night club all night long. The smell of the pizzeria filled the hallway and stayed in the room. I found an empty water bottle under the bed from the previous resident. The breakfast was very good though. I would not recommend this hotel especially for the price.
It was a good hotel with a good location. Both check-in and breakfast are in the hotel half a block or less away... which was weird, but not horrible. But it was a very good place to stay, and a good start to our vacation
Our quad room was really nice and really modern. The location was good. The only weird thing was that there is basically no staff to receive or help guests.
Close to train station. Very noisy, squeaky floors. Loud noisy street below. No front desk. Had to check in a hotel next door.

Super close to the train station and lots of restaurant options in the area. The only downside is there isn’t front desk staff at this location regularly. We were told staff would be there until 8 pm, but when we arrived to check in at 7 pm there was no one there. The partner hotel is just around the corner and easy to access so it was a quick fix.
The staff are super helpful and friendly! :) enjoyed my stay in Luzern and at Hotel Alpina very much

The room was ok but did not have air conditioning. There were two oscillating fans, which was nice, but we needed some cooler air so we had to sleep with open windows. There are several bars in the area and a restaurant next door. People were smoking cigarettes and the smoke came up into our room. It was Saturday night and the bars were open until 4 am. I was awakened many times, even with the provided ear plugs, and after 3 am, I could not fall asleep due to the constant yelling and screaming of the men and women at the bars. They continued to yell until 6:30 in the morning. It was awful!!!! The shower tiles were covered with epoxy at some point but that was bubbling up and rust and mold were behind the peeling epoxy paint. I like a clean shower. It was a very noisy location so I do not recommend it unless you like to drink all night. It was very close to the historic bridge and that was why I chose it.
