From start to finish, we loved our stay at this beautiful hotel. The staff were all so incredibly welcoming and helpful, and always had a pleasant greeting. Just a few minutes walk along the lake from the train station, as well as shopping and dining options in old Lucerne, we never required transportation. The hotel itself is elegant, and very picturesque. The rooms were clean, comfortable and very quiet. Highly recommend!
