What a great find! I booked a single room, but it was a big double bed. I would compare this hotel/room to the Moxy hotels - stylish & modern with fun decorative touches and common areas, a small yet functional and cute room. The best value in the area by far, and I spent days looking for a room. Great location near train station and busses. Lucerne is small, so you can walk anywhere in the old town quickly.

This is an old building in a great location that has been remodeled into a hipster kind of vibe. Not my favorite. There was no AC in the rooms so we had to keep the door open to be cool. The staff when we stopped at the bar were not attentive or friendly. There was not a lot of storage or drawers in the room. The rooms were dark. They chose form over function in their design which is why it wasn’t our favorite stay. That said, it might be your vibe. It’s well located and I applaud their effort to mix the old with the new. It just didn’t click for us.

We loved it at this place. The breakfast was superb. We never ate there for dinner, but a lot of people seemed to enjoy it. The atmosphere is cute and the beds comfy. The shower was also phenomenal. They also provided a loaner backpack to take while you went exploring.

The location of this property was good, the beds were comfortable the only con was no air conditioning and if you left the windows open it was so noisy because our room was on the street side, if the windows were closed the noise was blocked but the room got hot.

We stayed here for 5 nights using lucerne as our base for hiking and sightseeing. The staff were friendly and helpful. Breakfast was wonderful and had a good variety of options. Location is great for accessibility to train station, restaurants, stores, sights, etc. Be aware that the rooms have no AC and ours didn't have windows that opened. Being there for the hottest days of summer was pretty brutal. Staff were kind enough to get a couple of fans to help cool the room down. Bathrooms don't vent so humidity was up after showers and the bathrooms don't have true doors, kind of pantry or split closet style doors, so the whole room heats up. Television in the room would not stay on or would show server not available. May have been due to the temps too. The building itself is pretty, but so much of Lucerne was. Would we stay here again? Maybe, just not in the summer.

Wonderful local stay❣️

Hotel and rooms were exactly (if not better) than pictured. Very roomy and modernly decorated, yet it mixed perfectly with the old and elegant bones of the original building. Location was perfect for walking in any direction. I would stay here again❣️

Retiring in Lucerne

The hotel has such an amazing vibe and is in a really great location. The service was incredible. Every single person who worked there was super friendly and very helpful. My only issue is that the pillows on the bed were extremely uncomfortable and it was really hot so I had a hard time sleeping. But couldn’t say better things about the location, staff and cleanliness.
