    Was told that it is fine to order food upto 2000hrs, then to be told that staff wants to go home and no one will cook

    Spectacular view, breakfast a bit poor. Was our first time in Switzerland so we didn't know that there are different sockets. However if you ask, you will be given one at reception. No food close to 2000. But for that you can go to nearby place - Schwyzerhüsli

    Very nice place, high in the terrain above the busy city underneath. Cow bells, lush fields with beautiful flowers and possibilities for hiking around hotel on small roads. Simply beautiful surroundings.

    The rooms are quite small and very basic although they and the shared bathroom facilities were clean. There was a miscommunication through booking which caused some aggravation but it was resolved with some patience and calm communication by the staff. FYI if you book through Booking.com, they will tell you that the room was pre-paid but it actually is paid at the hotel and breakfast is not included.

    The location is lovely, quiet and remote but town is easily accessible via car or by taking the funicular and a bus (which is free for guests). There is great hiking all around the hotel.

    The fact that the beds were separate beds pushed together, want my favorite for a couple sleeping together. Also, we were not really understanding that there would be no bathrooms in the bedroom. Also, we were a little surprised after eating breakfast, to know that it wasn't a complimentary meal.

    The views are absolutely amazing!

    The price of the food is a bit overpriced, but it's really worth to try.

    The hotel is located on the slope of the mountain close to the forest with excellent walking trails. The view from the room and from terraces is absolutely marvelous. Staff was very kind and helpful. Our room was spacious, with a separate bathroom and jacuzzi - perfect to relax after walk; and we had a balcony viewing mountains and valley, and Luzern at the lake. There were fruits for guests free of charge on the table in the corridor. We had a dinner at the hotel restaurant and were extremely surprised with the exceptional preparation of the traditional food in an innovative way (Ukrainian specialties). Delicious!

    The day of our arrival, I received an email that the reception desk would be closed when I arrived with my family and instructions for the self-check-in. Our keys were not in the lock-box as the instructions stated and the reception desk was manned. According to the concierge, I should not have received that email the day of my arrival.

    Absolutely everything. The staff was exceptionally friendly, helpful, and accommodating. The food in the restaurant was absolutely fantastic. The view was breathtaking.

    The view from the hotel is absolutely amazing. There’s a private balcony in our room to watch the night view and the sunrise. I highly recommend this place if you’re driving to visit Lucerne. The room and the shared Bathroom are clean. Nothing to complain about. The selection of the breakfast is less than usual, but it was enough for us.

    The restaurant and shops around don’t offer much choice but we had a car so could drive to the local supermarket. The bathroom window opened onto the next door balcony so you can’t really open it when they are there.

    The location right on the hill was stunning and the drive up was lovely.

    Funicular closes at 5:00pm, if you do not have a car either be prepared to pay for a taxi/Uber or be prepared for a bit of a hike! I did laundry in Luzerne and ended up missing the last one up, I ended up with a 20 minute hike in the rain (although the view was excellent!!), so if you are a solo traveller using trains it might not be the hotel for you. Price also is a premium for what you get, but it is Switzerland so what can you do? Shared bathroom/showers are not ideal but not the end of the world, just stings a tiny bit when paying 120 for a room.

    Beautiful view of the city, modern rooms and facilities.
