Had a great time
My first time staying at a "Chateau". The property is beautiful, and the view of the city from your hotel room is also one of our highlights of this trip. Also, we enjoyed the bar very much. The staff of this hotel are friendly and helpful too.

As always wonderful. Have been coming here every year since I was 7 years old...first time was 1971...54 years and its always like coming home. Everyone asks why I don't stay nearer the lake..this is why. It's peaceful away from the bustle and it had the best view in Lucerne.

The hotel is amazing with a great location. We had a perfect view of lake Lucerne from our room. The lift to go down to the main town was right next to the hotel and it was easy to get to the city from there. Our room was clean, large and spacious. There was a great restaurant in the hotel and the staff was warm, courteous and extremely helpful. There was parking at the hotel as well. Would highly recommend staying here.

The receptionists are very nice and helpful, but the man who claimed himself as the manager is unbelievably rude and racist.

I highly recommend this hotel! The staff and property were incredible and the views were the cherry on top. I loved having parking on site. There is not a fitness center or spa but we truly didn’t miss not having the two days we were there. Close to bus stop.
