Possibilities
Room needed a little tlc. Shower curtain needed replaced, coffee pot didnt function, knob missing ona drawer. We had the only room on the 5th floor with direct access to the roof patio. Could have been an excellent patio with ambience but it really needed work. Plants, flowers or at least clean the gutters from plant growth and weeds.

Great location! Our room was hot. Only welcoming staff was the young gentleman in the afternoon/evening. Morning front desk help was arrogant and rude and so was the lady in restaurant for breakfast so we ate elsewhere.

This property is perfectly located in the heart of Lucerne & easily accessible via public transport. The issue we encountered was that it was extremely uncomfortable in the rooms due to no ventilation and no air conditioning which resulted in us struggling to get any sleep. I wouldn’t recommend staying here in summer.

The location was excellent! Walkable to many shops and restaurants and the lake. Take a swim. It’s beautiful. If you’re bringing a car, getting to the hotel is really tricky and you have to drive on what you think are pedestrian only streets!! Once you get to the hotel, staff parks your car and returns it to you when you want to leave.👍

Nice hotel in the downtown area. No A/C, but they do provide fans. Nonetheless, my partner struggled to sleep at night, as it was very hot during our stay.

Very close to everything, roughly a 10 or so minute walk from main train station. Had the top floor so had a good sized balcony however lift was only to the 4th floor. The young man at the reception was extremely nice, welcomed me straight away and every time I left the hotel or came back he acknowledged me. Reasons for the low score was - the room was extremely hot, felt like I was in a sauna 24/7, there was no air con just 2 little fans that barely did anything. The shower head was broken - I had the shower head on the side going diagonal from the wall meaning I was literally showering pressed against the wall and the body,hand and shampoo wash. When I arrived I checked the bed like I always do, and there was multiple bugs underneath the pillows. The mini fridge was jammed packed with the hotels products - I paid for the hotel so I should be able to freely use the fridge. The pillows on the bed was also nonexistent- felt like I had no support, like I had no pillow on the bed.

There is no air-conditioning and that was rough considering how hot Europe is now. But they did supply fans.

Best location -The property is very central to shopping, dining and walkable to the main attractions and railway station. You just need to stay here to experience Lucerne especially if you only have 2 days there like us. We were able to leave our luggage before check-in time and after check-out which is a big plus for us. We stayed on the 4th floor facing the back of the hotel and it was quite at night. I recommend this hotel for its location for a short stay.

We only stayed one night, and only issue is with no air conditioning and the fans they have to make it comfortable are very poor. My only suggestion is to upgrade fans to oscillating pedestal fans, and maybe provide an extension cord as the outlets are limited.
