Hotel Pilatus-Kulm

The successful conclusion of the complete refurbishment in August 2010 marked the beginning of another chapter in the vibrant history of the historic Pilatus-Kulm Mountain Hotel. The heritage-protected Hotel Pilatus-Kulm once again stands for the uniqueness that characterised it when it first opened in 1890. The generous hotel rooms and suites herald the dawn of a new era at Hotel Pilatus-Kulm with its distinguished tradition.

FANTASTIC location and excellent hotel... what a hoot to stay at 7 000 feet!

Reviewed By dedicatedtraveller

Lovely cheerful and friendly receptionist Helene greeted us warmly when we arrived at 9.30am!! Obviously, we just left our luggage whilst we walked all around the summit admiring the views and watching with facination the clouds change constantly.... one minute we could see everything, the next 'white out'! it was such fun! and an education. We were able to access our room before 4pm... SO grateful to Helene for our room... 402... the views were just stunning from it! It was lovely and light, airy and in pristine condition and spotlessly clean. Beverage tray and safe in room. Large walk in shower... easy to use and water always piping hot. The bed was incredibly comfortable and we slept SO well as it was pin drop quiet! Got up in the night to look at the jet black sky full of bright stars! In the morning to wake up to such a super view was a real treat. Breakfast was good... not that we needed much as the 4 course dinner we had had the night before was first class... a real treat to eat! Only the Swiss could have such a classy restaurant at the top of a mountain! The staff were super.... very friendly, cheerful and attentive. Can't recommend the dinner, stay and breakfast package... you get the cable car/rack railway included... worth every franc for sure! It was an experience we will never forget!

Charming stay overlooking Lucerne

Reviewed By hotdogfamily

Completely charming stay overlooking the lake. The staff was very friendly and helpful with local transportation options. Enjoyed sipping an espresso, relaxing and taking in the view from the balcony. We didn’t have an en-suite bathroom but it wasn’t a problem at all; the facilities are very nice and clean. Would definitely recommend.

Overpriced office park motel with undisclosed parking fee

Reviewed By advade

Made a last minute reservation while traveling through Switzerland because it was right off of the highway and seemed easy to reach. Booked a three person room for two adults and a small child. When we arrived, we asked about parking and they said, it's underground and explained how to get there. There was no mention that it cost anything or furthermore that they charged by the hour! We only found this out in the morning upon check out - and the parking in an empty basement garage (shared with the media mart) turned out to be 13 €. The morning guy explained "everyone charges for parking now." Uh no dude, not at office parks located off the autobahn. And not when you don't tell people ahead of time. As for the room. The hotel is in an office park, so I wasn't expecting a view or anything special. What I was expecting (in 2021) were electrical outlets - maybe even a USB port or two - basically enough that I could charge two cell phones and a power pack and enough towels that three people could shower and wash their hands. What I found was not that. We had two towels, no hand towels, no bath mat (and unreliably hot water) and ONE electrical plug that was no where near the bed. Look, it's an Ibis, right? But it wasn't the lowest level Ibis, is it too much to expect the ability to charge a cell phone? I guess so. Good side: it appeared clean.

Does the Job

Reviewed By Erin J

Very small, but clean, new and modern room. Breakfast was pretty sad. Cold cuts and cereal. Not even scrambled eggs. The room had a double size bed, a lounge chair, a small table, ironing board, and an iron. The bathroom featured the typical European open shower that gets water all over the floor. There was the refillable 2-in1 shampoo/body wash. Another of the same bottle is located above the sink as hand soap. The hotel is in a great location. Right across the street from McDonald's, Subway, an Asian restaurant, and more. Less than the 2 minutes to the bus/train station which is only 2 stops away from downtown Lucerne. And the hotel gave us a pass for rail/bus for free! We left our car at the nice parking garage across the street. I wouldn't stay for more than one night since it was so small, but it did the trick and the price was right.

Average Hostel, Location is good

Reviewed By mohitanand150

Average hostel with basic facilities. The location was good - just a minute walk from the bus station. They would give a city pass(all bus /tram rides in Lucerne would be free) The room was clean enough. The washroom was VERY small. They have a common area with a kitchen. They also have paid luggage storage. They provide free parking spaces.

Expensive like hell but worth every cent

Reviewed By Bossofnothing

Located at the top of Pilatus mountain above the city of Luzen this hotel provides visitors with a unique experience one never forgets. The old hotel is lovely renovated and the rooms are spacious and well kept. Be sure to book the arrangement and not the single hotelroom. When you don't you also have to pay the trip with the cablecarts to the top. Good weather is a absolute must. So be sure to book with refundable annulement so you can change the date when the weather is bad. Would be a shame to book a room for 400 euro and don't see nothing.

Newly renovated with ambiente and great location.

Reviewed By 547knutm

The hotel is now with a new owner and management. Just newly renovated in a very nice style. The location is perfect with a beautiful sea view. Amazing is the restaurant, not cheap, however worth the value! Service always very friendly and you feel the willingness to make the best out of your stay. There are still small things which work not perfect, as they started not too long ago. Internet needs urgent improvement as this is not stabil at all - they know and working on it. This hotel could easily develop in something bigger, the concept is convincing and how they are managing it is just great. Good luck!
