Reviews and Ratings
The hotel is ideally located in the historical center of Lucerne, near the lake and close to major attractions, restaurants, and shopping. The rooms offer a full kitchen, lounge area, and a comfortable queen size bed, but are small for four people and the indoor/outdoor carpet is worn in some areas. The service is satisfactory overall, with contact numbers provided late at night on the hotel front door, though staff attitude can be indifferent. Dining options are limited, leading guests to consider dining outside. The hotel's prime advantage lies in its central location and proximity to key sights.
