"Nice little hotel in a great location. Nice and close to the train station, lake, shopping and the bridge. Only bad thing was the WiFi was pretty much non existent up in the room and the furniture pieces were too big for the room, couldn’t even open the bathroom door all the way."
"Just a lovely lovely place to stay. Centrally located and very easy to get around. We just loved it and would definitely stay again if visiting Lucerne. Highly recommend"
