Hotels near Nationalquai, Lucerne

This was the fifth hotel on my trip to Switzerland. It's two bus stops from the train station, but conveniently located right by the stop, so getting there wasn't an issue. The hotel clearly exudes a rich history and old-world charm, with its luxurious European-style decor. I had a bit of trouble initially finding the right entrance and the front desk within the building. I'd actually booked a city view room, but the front desk upgraded me to a stunning lake view room – seriously, you *must* book a lake view! The terrace views were absolutely breathtaking!! The room itself wasn't huge, but it did have air conditioning. The bathroom was a tad small, mainly due to a large, rather useless cabinet taking up unnecessary space.

I had a really comfortable stay in this capsule hotel! The capsules are spacious enough and there’s a free locker to put our luggage. Toilets are always kept clean and dry. The lounge area is spacious and comfy. There’s a microwave, mini fridge and cutleries provided. The staffs are all really friendly as well. The location is about 15 minutes walk from Luzern Train Station, but you can take a bus if walking isn’t for you. There’s a Coop 1-2 minutes walk from the hotel which is very convenient.

The room was spacious and well-equipped with all the basic necessities, making it a good choice for business accommodation. However, our booking included dinner, but the front desk couldn't find it... Luckily, I asked what time dinner was during check-in, otherwise, it would have been a wasted trip for dinner.

The hotel boasts an excellent location, just a few minutes' walk from the Lion Monument and two stops from the train station. What's even better is that staying here gets you a free QR code for public transportation (valid for all city transport!). The young man at the front desk was very friendly, and the hotel room itself was spacious and clean.

There is an uphill, but the view room is selected. Every day, the balcony is sitting on the balcony. The front desk service is very thoughtful. The recommended hotel's internal bar German ”pizza” is super delicious. Thanks for professional guidance. The overall stay feels good. Recommended.

The hotel was good and clean, the staff was very nice and helpful. The only thing was that there was no aircon and there was a heatwave. Luckily we caught the end of the heatwave and the fan sufficed - was not super comfortable but ok for a night as we had to leave super early.

Really was pleasantly surprised by how good this hotel was. Comfortable clean rooms, clean towels, comfortable beds and duvets, super friendly front desk, and really great location. A special mention of the quality breakfast spread which I look forward every morning. Strongly recommended.

Nice stay! They had a small kitchen, fridge, elevator + supplied towels :) Rooms were big and beds comfy. Really nice location with friendly staff. Showers and bathroom were seperate and nice. Location was great. Make sure to use the free Lucerne Guest Card provided.

Cleanliness and location all good. It’s near a bus stop and we could wait the bus to go to central train station, it’s quite convenient given that we had a travel pass for free. They have hot water provided at reception but the room was quite small and crowded. Overall it’s ok.

Probably my experience at this Lucerne Youth Hostel branch wasn't the best — though it certainly wasn't bad either. I suspect that was partly because I was coming directly from their Zermatt branch, where I had an absolutely amazing stay. I should also mention something I forgot to include in my Zermatt review: at the Zermatt Youth Hostel, they offer the thoughtful option of a lunch box if you can't stay for breakfast the next morning. The cook there made me the best sandwich ever 😍, which I enjoyed after my hike to the Matterhorn — with a Matterhorn view, no less! I think that's such a wonderful gesture for travelers. I asked about a similar option at the Lucerne Youth Hostel, but they didn't offer it, which was a bit disappointing. The breakfast also lacked any fresh veggies 🥗. I hope they might consider implementing a lunch box service; I believe early-bird travelers would really appreciate it. On a positive note, I really appreciated that they had an iron available at the reception — that came in very handy. That said, I didn't find the facilities particularly comfortable or cosy overall.
