Overall, a good hotel in a great central location — very convenient for exploring the city. However, a few downsides impacted the experience. There was no on-site parking, and I ended up having to park under the nearby train station, which was quite expensive. The Wi-Fi password provided didn’t work initially, and the shampoo bottles in the room were empty. On the bright side, the staff were friendly and responsive — they addressed the Wi-Fi and amenities issue promptly, but unfortunately, there wasn’t much they could do about the parking. Good stay overall, but worth noting these points for future guests.

We would come back!

The front desk staff was so nice and very helpful. This was our first visit to Switzerland and they made us feel welcome. The location from the train station made it very easy to get to. There are a large number of attractions and restaurants/bars within a couple minutes. At check in we received a voucher for free public transportation and discounts while in Lucerne.

Couldn’t have asked for a better place to stay for our first visit to Luzern. Train station is just across the street in a wonderful neighborhood. Extremely friendly and welcoming staff. We especially loved the location. Everything you would want to see and experience is a short walk. The shopping, dining and convenience to the train station below the station was amazing.

This hotel is located in an ideal location. It is just across the main train station and, unlike many areas around train stations of major cities, the surroundings are safe, walkable and clean. It is also close to the old town, Lake Luzern, and other tourist attractions. The hotel itself is very clean and comfortable. I would definitely stay here again if I come to Luzern.
