    The room was a nice size and well-kept and included a shower, hair dryers, and make-up mirrors. The continental breakfast was enjoyable and had lots of options. The location was the best, just a minute walk from Old Town Lucerne.

    I had dinner at a really good restaurant. It's in a prime location, just a minute's walk from a stunning baroque church from the 1600s. 🍽️

    The continental breakfast was awesome, the location was unbeatable for walking around a covered wooden footbridge, next to a lake and a mountain.

    The room was well-kept and provided good value for money. It had a balcony and a separate bedroom for parents, along with amazing views of Mt. Pilatus. The hotel offered an extensive breakfast with a view of the river.

    The breakfast is super and of course the venue and scenery are brilliant.

    At 6.30 h the bells of the church close by are started. When you sleep with the window opened, you are awake. Eardops won't help ;-)
