To get the most out of this cracking hotel, I recommend upgrading to a Superior or Deluxe bedroom. Of course there is nothing wrong with the Standard bedrooms, they come with all the mod cons, are spacious and have views of the rooftops of Nice and the blue Mediterranean Sea, but the Superior or Deluxe bedrooms will make your stay really special.

Nevertheless this traditional Swiss hotel is a great place to stay in Lucerne.
