If you book a zimmer suite and they tell you that you have been upgraded to a room with a kitchen, don't take the upgrade! 4 families had booked Zimmer suites (which were very nicely appointed with large bathrooms), but unfortunately for my husband and I we were upgraded to a room with a kitchen (not useful when only staying for 1.5 days). The bathroom required you to walk sideways into the room (as it was tiny) and there was no where to sit in a large expansive room. Overall the hotel is nice and it is in a great location in Lucerne, but be mindful of them promoting room upgrades from the best rooms in the hotel! Very disappointing!

Centrally located hotel across the stress from central station. Very convenient location. The staff is nice, rooms are clean & breakfast is good. It's bit dated, but that is expected form a historic property. No air conditioning. If you open the widows, the noise form street will not allow for restful night.

The location is excellent, situated directly across from the train station. However, the room is quite old, and the windows lack curtains. Additionally, you can hear sounds from the hallway, as the room has poor sound insulation.

Staying in this hotel felt like we were royalty. Our room wasn't ready when we arrived three hours early but staff emailed us when it was ready, and they had already delivered our baggage to the room. Coffee was available in the room and the pillows and mattress were memory foam, so comfortable. The location is directly across the street feom the train station and in the middle of Old Town, where shopping and restaurants are located. This place is perfect!
