The hotel is just right next to the main train station and a short walk from the ferry terminal. The old town and main tourist attractions are all within walking distance. Couldn't have asked for more.

Conveniently located just outside the Luzern train station and right next to the chapel brige and boat rides. Attentive staff. We arrived early and staff checked in our bags and room was avaliable earlier than check in time. Will stay again if visiting Luzern.

Fantastic location directly across from the central station, bus stop and ferry piers. Although on a main road, very quiet. Clean and full of character. A great stay

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.

Our room was leaking from the ceiling. When brought to the hotels attention, they set towels under it and apologized. Although staff was friendly, we didn’t have AC and the ceiling was leaking bad. No room change or discount on stay or anything. I found it very unprofessional
