Top 10 hotels in Lucerne, Switzerland

August 7, 2022 Merry Kessler

Lucerne is an ancient town with strikingly modern sensibilities. One of Europe’s oldest covered bridges serves as its centerpiece, and fresco-adorned historic houses line the streets, but it’s also home to the cutting-edge KKL, a concert hall and art gallery. Take the cableways up the Pilatus, Stanserhorn or Rigi mountains for breathtaking views, or see Lake Lucerne on a steamship cruise.

Comfortable family rooms with nice small touches

Reviewed By Dawniey

Just spent 4 nights here. We had a lovely stay. We booked the family room and it had 2 separate rooms with a common entrance connecting the rooms. Each room had its own bathroom. Thus, quire comfortable if you want to be together but yet have private rooms. Breakfast buffet was good ( the usual yogurt, cereals, juices, bread, smoked salmon, pancakes, sausages) and you can also separately order eggs and bacon etc cooked fresh; all included. It also had nice small but meaningful touches like free mini bat which they top up daily ( water, soda, coke etc), free rental of bicycles, free bus ticket for travel anywhere in Lucern which we used quite conveniently as bus stop is just round the corner. If you need parking, it is 22CHF per night. Room was clean and comfortable too. Would recommend.

Hotel Beau Sejour Lucerne

Great Belle Epoque Design-Hotel built in 1875. Unique design, first class service, wild art installations & wallpapers and a fantastic lake view makes this place just amazing.

romantic, fantastic, colorful

Reviewed By rgilcord

Staying at Hotel Beau Séjour in Luzern is traveling time and space but still having the flair of trendy interior. Old elements combined with contemporary design, materials and shapes make this place what it is. Wonderful. The bed is softer than the one at home and the sleep experience is better than Louis XIV I bet. If you want to visit Luzern than you should definitely stay at Beau Séjour to really have a Beau Séjour. This is french and means a beautiful stay.

Best stay ever

Reviewed By ReeM M

Amazing, perfect I was there with my husband for our honeymoon. I cannot thank you and your staff enough for making it an experience to remember for life. I must say that all the requests were kept in mind and fulfilled to the best possible levels. At the time of the booking I had mentioned the reason for visit and to our surprise, the room was beautifully done with a complimentary cake and bed decorations with a sweet letter which make us feel special. It was impressive to see that you completely justify the name of your property because the room was loaded with all luxuries and best of amenities that a guest could think of it a hotel. My husband and myself thoroughly enjoyed the stay and we are sure that we are going to come back to luceren to stay at your property. You are truly the address if someone wishes to come to luzern and enjoy a luxurious stay and we will certainly recommend schweizerhof hotel to all our family and friends.

lovely view of the bridge from room

Reviewed By jantshield

The room had a small balcony and chairs to look at the historic bridge and the water. It rained, so we did not use the balcony but it was a nice view to look out upon. The hotel kept our bags until it was time to check in and offered to keep them after check out as needed. Good location, easy to walk to from the train.

A Charming, Beautiful Hotel

Reviewed By suematt70

We loved this hotel! Everything about it was top notch. The interior is classy and elegant with old world charm. Our room was just beautiful with two small balconies that overlooked the lake. There were two sinks, a real bathtub, a glass shower, a Dyson hair dryer and a nice marble shelf for all our stuff in the bathroom. The room was large with a comfortable king size bed, desk area, two chairs and a small round table, and even an end table. A slight problem was finding plugs to charge our phone etc. Location is high on a hill with a complimentary funicular to bring you down to the street. It’s maybe a 20 minute walk to town or take a bus. The bus is super convenient. We even rode the whole route as an unguided tour around the town. I’m sure the hotel staff can provide info on getting bus passes. This hotel is one of the nicest we’ve ever stayed in. Our compliments to the excellent staff that made our stay so memorable.

Noisy hotel

Reviewed By DIF1891

Small room with a very nice balcony. No air conditioning in the room, there was a small fan in the room but it did not help much. We needed to sleep with the balcony door open and there was a lot of noisy traffic outside the hotel. The hotel was centrally located and easy to reach most parts of the city on foot. However, you could travel for free on local transport with a card you got from the hotel. An ok hotel experience.
