Great find! Would stay there again.

We had a fabulous stay in the Stanserhorn Room from June 20 -25, 2025. The room was large, comfortable, with a balcony and spectacular lake views. The bathroom was modern. Staff was friendly and competent. Breakfast was decent, drinks were lovely, dinner was good too. 2 items for consideration: - Please consider adding warm steel cut oats (preferably with milk and berries) to your breakfast offerings for those of us who are vegan / lacto-vegetarian. - Please consider providing some sort of storage space in the shower area for additional toiletries and / or clothes. -

The guy that worked on May 26, 2025 was very rude and aggressive towards us. We were charged before we checked in and wanted some clarification and he assumed that we wanted our money back and started to get very nasty. There was no need for that. If your guests are confused or misinformed, it’s your duty as an employee to kindly explain things so that their stay is pleasant.

This is a very nice property in a gorgeous, serene, area. The restaurant is amazing, and the breakfast superb (not just your regular buffet but also included are made to order items). So beautiful, quiet and away from all the tourism in Lucerne. These are spacious apartments. They have a nice coffee bar set up. The local 311 bus is reliable like a Swiss luxury watch It was our best stay in Switzerland, but it would be even better if they had a gym on site. The pillows were also a bit uncomfortable. Otherwise, excellent stay!

The hotel was fantastic for our family of four. It was very clean, scenic and serene. The room was spacious and the beds comfortable. The breakfast had perhaps the best food we had out of our 5 days in Switzerland and was included in our stay. The staff were friendly and helpful and the area was nice, quiet, historic and about 20 min from Lucerne. Highly recommend. We had a great time.

We are a family of five with three sons and this place was perfect for us. We had a suite with a great view of the lake and we really enjoyed walking on some of the surrounding trails. The room had all of the modern conveniences and the breakfast was amazing. We really enjoyed staying here.

The hotel has an enviable location on Lake Lucerne. The views from both the terrace and room were breathtaking. The room was clean, comfortable and well presented. My children loved sleeping upstairs in the eves. The food is local, generous and well prepared. You eat literally sitting yards from the lake with the mountains facing you. The main plus though are the staff. They are extremely professional, know their role and do a great job in allowing ypu to have a fantastic stay. I will definitely come back. If you like their website, you will love the hotel and the staff.

Hotel Nidwaldernhof was a little out of the way but totally worth it for the views from the restaurant, the incredible dinner and best breakfast buffet on our entire "grand tour of Switzerland" trip. The pillows could be replaced and the A/C was on the fritz due to the rain the night before. But the lodging was a great deal for the free amazing breakfast.

If this is "3-star"...

Outstanding: environment, service, cuisine. Easy access from highway, lake access, parking, beautiful rooms and views. We are practically planning driving routes now to require an overnight there. That's a top-notch hotel! Their consistent concept about what's important is winning.

Excellent hotel with under cover parking for free . If staying more than a night ask for the half board option as will save you some money . The ferry to Lucerne was worth the trip , also a good base to do some if not most of the attractions
