This is a terrific place to stay in Lucerne for everything you need. It is charming and simple. The yard and tables outside are lovely and relaxing. The staff is terrific and helpful. We did not think to bring our own shampoo for the shared bath. Only soap is provided, so be more prepared that we were. Absolutely wonderful with all we needed. A smart choice.

We really enjoyed our stay at The Bed and Breakfast in Lucerne. It was in a nice quiet area yet easy to reach other locations such as Old Town. The bus stop is close by but we often walked along back streets to get to the Old Town, boat docks and train station. The host, Isabelle is lovely and very helpful. There was a great variety for the breakfast each morning. We highly recommend this hotel and would definitely stay here again if we return to Lucerne.

The staff is very friendly and helpful. The location is very close to a bus station. The bus operates frequently to various locations. On top of this, the hotel provides free bus pass. The pass is available (by email) even before our arrival. As a result, we can go to the hotel by bus at zero cost.

We loved our stay at The Bed and Breakfast! It is a 20 minute walk from the station and in a nice quiet street. The staff were friendly and helpful, the room was clean and comfortable and we never had to wait for use of the shared bathrooms. Breakfast was great and the bus pass was an added bonus. Would definitely recommend to others!

We knew we would be in the attic room so stairs did not bother us. A light or nightlight at the top of the stairs would make it a lot safer. Breakfast was wonderful and the staff accommodated an early morning departure with breakfast laid out!

Really lovely and easy stay in Lucerne - very comfortable beds! Breakfast is great, and the location is very convenient - a bit further out but a very easy walk into the centre. Close to lots of good restaurants but easier to be out the centre a little bit for parking! Reception sorted out our parking permit, very straight forward and highly recommend if you’re stopping in Lucerne!

Pros: a 15-minute walk to the center of the old town; a good breakfast with plenty of options; comfortable beds; ceiling fans (absolutely essential for August; housekeeping reset the room. Cons: shared bathrooms (somehow I missed this when booking); very basic room furnishings (nothing on the walls, no color anywhere, at least not in ours); feels a bit like a hostel (without the hostel bargain price); “parking available” means it is paid street parking (CHF 20 for a day pass through an app). Overall, decent and clean but not fancy by any stretch.

Sweet “old school” family run B&B

Ideal opportunity to experience “old school” B&B. No in-room TV, but you can sit in the breakfast room and play board games or talk face-to-face! Small honor bar can provide a beverage or two while you chill. Also, complementary tea and real coffee. Tables in the garden too. Easy access to buses. En-suite bath modern. On a budget? Experience a shared bath. They will soon be extinct. You can tell your grandchildren about it!

The property is old but clean and quiet as I expected. It is a little bit hot as there is no air conditioner but acceptable if you turn on the fan. The only thing we don't like is that there is no lift and you must carry your luggage to the third floor.

Very well run and well thought out accommodation. Breakfast is good value, the coffee machine available at all times is great. The shared fridge is a nice touch and the laundry is very convenient and a generous price which saved us a couple of hours of our own time. The rooms are clean and a good size, the staff are friendly and helpful. Can't really fault the place!
