Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Our stay here was virtually perfect. The hotel has all the right amenities and then some. There is something incredibly comfortable in the room which makes it one of the best stays we've ever had in Europe as a whole. Pros: - historic but very well renovated - great AC - perfect location - lake views are incredible - staff is great - daily chocolate treats were a unique surprise - incredible bathroom (private toilet, double sink, great water flow, waterfall shower, great quality shampoo/conditioner/soap) - international outlet adapter, USB c outlets by the bed - perfect blackout shades - perfectly quiet rooms, especially with the windows closed - awesome historical artifacts in the room Cons: - it was a shame that our reservation didn't include breakfast. Maybe it was related to Expedia itself though since it seems strange that such an expensive hotel wouldn't have that by default.

The staff at this property is exemplary. They are friendly and always greet you with a smile and speak to you. The hotel is a bit on the pricier side but the location could not be more perfect. In just a few minutes, you can walk to both the Chapel Bridge as well as the Lion Monument. You are less than a minute away from the historic old town shopping/dining district so the price is worth the convenience. I highly suggest a lake view room. The amenties of our room were oustanding and the personal touches left for us truly made our stay memorable. You won't regret selecting this hotel for your stay.

We stayed at Hotel Schweizerhof Luzern and overall had an okay experience. The location is great—central and very convenient for exploring the city. Our room was clean, nicely decorated, and appeared to have been recently remodeled, which was a plus. However, the staff at check-in was not welcoming at all, which made for a cold first impression. Also, the breakfast was underwhelming—limited variety and the same selection every single day, which got repetitive quickly. It’s a nice hotel in many ways, but there’s definitely room for improvement when it comes to service and breakfast offerings.

宮殿のような作りのホテルですが館内には最新の設備が備わっていて良かったです。 私は言語に不安があったのですが全てのスタッフが私にわかりやすいように説明してくれました。 特に良かったと思った点は、部屋がとても綺麗に清掃されていたことです。全てが清潔で塵ひとつ見つけるのが難しいくらいでした。 料金はそれなりにしますが泊まる価値はあると思います。
