Pros:

המיקום שלו מעולה והנוף נפלא. הצוות היה קשוב אפשר לי להכניס את חפצי לחדר לפני הזמן.

Cons:

היה מאד מאד חם ולא ניתן היה לפתוח חלון בגלל שזה מעל לבר וכמעט כל הלילה היה רעש.

Pros:

You cannot get a better location than this. The rooms open to the chapel bridge. The room has all basic amenities. Staff was helpful.

Cons:

Size of room is very small compared to the price. 2 separate beds were provided not even kept together due to small size of room. Hotel management can look at removing the wooden slab right above the bed.

Good location, no air conditioning, great view, lots of foot traffic and noisy.
Pros:

Good view of lake/river. Trash cans didn't have lids. Room was clean.

Cons:

Even though it was made plain, there was no air conditioning. Food in hotel bar was mediocre. Beds mediocre. Noisy area due to temendous amount of foot traffic as you had to have the windows open.

Med den dybeste udsigt.
Pros:

Beliggenheden og stemningen. Fantastisk hyggeligt og med den smukkeste udsigt. Vi var så heldige at have en lille balkon med plads til et lille bord og to stole, man kunne sidde og nyde udsigten.

Lovely stay at Lucern
Pros:

Location Location Location. Superb.
Stuffs were very helpful.
We also tried their food, good.
if you are lucky you can see the weekly farmer's market just in front of the hotel, which is a nice experience.

Cons:

As this is just above the pub, late night noise can happen, which we didn't mind though.

We enjoyed our stay - lack of air conditioning was our only complaint but had we not had the unseasonable heatwave it w
Pros:

Location was fantastic - in centre of old town and shopping area. View from room was amazing - woke up each morning looking at the Chapel Bridge. Close to many restaurants and the Lake. Also a walk to Lucerne station.

Cons:

No Air Conditioning. We were there towards the end of June and temps were hitting 34C each day. We were provided with two fans which did provided some relief.
