Location

Bang on in Lucerne’s city centre, it’s a mega-handy spot just 200 metres from the main bus and train stations, and only 50 metres to the nearest local stop. Big hitters like Kapellbrücke, Lake Lucerne, and the Lion Monument are an easy stroll away, and Old Town’s buzzing shops and restaurants are only nine minutes on foot. If you’re after culture or a cheeky lakeside wander, KKL Luzern and the Swiss Museum of Transport are close by too. With cafés, restaurants, and shopping galore all around, you couldn’t be better placed for a proper city break.

Rooms

Spread across eight floors, 247 rooms offer up some comfy digs with air con and hairdryers as standard. Fancy extra beds or cots for the crew? That’s sorted on request, so families and squads can kick back without faff. Interiors reflect the 2014 refurb, so expect a contemporary feel and flexibility for every kind of traveller looking to explore Lucerne.

Food & Drink

With three restaurants and a coffee shop on-site, meal times are a breeze—whether you’re grabbing brekkie from the buffet or going à la carte for lunch or dinner. Two bars serve up chilled vibes for a social meet-up or late-night tipple. Gluten-free and veggie options mean no one’s missing out, and the banquet hall makes it a handy choice for bigger get-togethers or celebrations.

Sports & Entertainment

Keeping active’s a cinch thanks to the gym, while the sun terrace is bang on for catching rays or chilling out after exploring. Nights get lively with a nightclub on-site, so you can dance till late without having to trek anywhere. Between the three restaurants and two bars, there’s loads of ways to mix up your downtime, whether you’re after bite-sized eats or a fancy-pants drink.

Distance From Major Transportation Hubs

Lucerne Station is just 200 metres away—proper Premier League for train connections. Heading further afield? Zürich Kloten Airport is a 58 km trip, while Bern Belp Airport is 79 km away. The harbour’s just as close at 200 metres, so getting in or out by boat is dead easy.
