    Fantastic hotel at a phenomenal location with FABULOUS staff.

    The only thing I'd change about the room is I'd put the laptop safety locker on a higher level in the cupboard. It's currently placed at the bottom of the cupboard and was a bit difficult for my parents to bend down to access it. Other than that, the elevator is a small one, but really fast, so one never really has to wait for more than a couple of minutes.

    The reception staff, each and everyone of them was absolutely brilliant. They are the ones that make the hotel what it is. It's a big hotel, yet has a boutique hotel warmth to it. The room was lovely and the housekeeping staff did a fantastic job on a daily basis. The bathrooms has two sinks (his and her), which was absolutely great. Plus the bathroom generally was an above average size. Also, we really appreciated that they have a microwave in the common area for guests to use. Breakfast was pretty good. Not very elaborate, but well worth it. Pancakes, scrambled eggs, fresh tea and coffee counter, sausages, fruits and cheese along with great croissants/breads on a daily basis. Oh , back to the rooms, the beds were fantastic and very comfortable. The staff was also courteous enough to lend an umbrella to my brother when he was stepping out at night to go to a nearby bar. Also, location. You can't can for a better location in Lucerne than Monopol. Train station/ bus stand/ the lake.. everything is right outside the hotel.

    It was really hot when we were there and they did not turn on the airconditioner. Reception said the aircon will be turned on in May. There was a bar on the top floor and we arrived on a Saturday. The music was so loud bec our windows were open.

    In the city center. Food places all around. Walking distance to everything.

    Good location but internet signal is very bad

    • Stayed 3 nights

    -Internet signal from Hote's Wifi was VERY VERY LOW, I have to drag the chair to sit next to the door to get stronger signal. Sometime, I have to open the door to get a signal too. Things got worse when I ask the staff to solve the problem but nothing happended except the excuse from staff who said "todaywe have a problem with internet connection". and gave me some buy 1 get 1 drink voucher (Which I don't want at all) However, the signal around the frontdesk was always very very strong everytime I came to Front Desk. So I think it is not about Wifi's technical problem and the hotel should do something better than this! -Outside my room there is a hotel's spotlight located next to the window. at 1st night the spotlight opened at night and its light was so strong that even I closed all the curtain, the light still came through and I could not sleep until the spotlight turned off automatically (I can't remember the exact time but it was after midnight). Next morning I asked front desk to do something, they listened and on 2nd night, the hotel installed a thick curtain on my window which spotlight could not pierce through. This was very good, I thank you for that....However, on 3rd night that thick curtain has been removed, I was so shocked when I came back to my room because I did not ask the hotel to took it out until my check out!!! So these were my disappointment and made me decided not to stay in this hotel again in the future. :(

    -Hotel location is great, just opposite Luzern train station -Short walk to Chapelbrucke and the old town -room size is acceptable

    The room was a little dated. One of the elevators was out of service during our stay. Nothing major, would definitely recommend a stay there.

    The location was brilliant, right beside the train station and of course Lake Lucerne. Everything was accessible and within walking distance. What stood out was the reception. Me and my friend, we were welcomed warmly by Mr Khai, who greeted us in our home language. We felt welcome right from the start. He offered us great recommendations of the sights and sounds of the city and halal options available in the town. The room also had a great view overlooking the lake. Overall a great stay!

    Great location right across the street from train station. Bar on top floor has nice views and swanky feel. Our room was spacious.

    I was traveling with my 19, 21 and 26 year old kids and requested a room that slept 4 people. Our room had a queen bed and one twin. It was awkward having to sleep in the same bed with one of my sons.

    The location was great! Right next to the train station.

    The pillow was too flat for me The wall and ceiling are quite thin so you may hear sound from the next room especially the bed is next to each other against the wall and hearing steps from above maybe even from dusk till late at night depends on your luck…

    The best hotel you can find in Luzerne if you are not after for modern and luxury, i believe it was luxury in its time. Just a street away from train station Plenty of amenities in the room, coffee pod machine, fruits, drinking water, slipper , etc. With starbucks and Mcdonald right inside the hotel I was blessed to get the best room view could ever ask for. Room and water temperature is perfect

    Hot water took a while to arrive, I had to let the water run for a while - wasting water. WiFi in the rooms can be improved.

    The location is fantastic if you don’t drive. The staff are extremely helpful and obliging. Hotel seems renovated and new, the beds were fantastic. I truly enjoyed my stay.
