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.

Great location, fabulous staff and wonderful breakfast. I also loved the balcony and coffee machine with the room.
Negative was that the room was really warm and the traffic noise meant it was not ideal to have the doors open.
