We love the location of this boutique hotel, directly on the Reuss river flowing through the center of Lucerne old town.

In addition to single, double, and triple rooms, they also have multi-room suites sleeping 4 to 6, a great option for families. Many of their rooms of have a river and mountain view, some with balconies.

Their breakfast buffet features cheese from regional producers, fresh sausage from a Lucerne city butcher, and bread from the local baker.

The hotel is a 2 min walk from the pedestrian-only old town and 12 min walk from the train station. As part of your stay, you get a free Lucerne guest card, which gives you free bus service in the city and other discounts.

For parking, they have a few private spots which can be reserved in advance. Otherwise, they are a short walk from the Altstadt parking garage, which has easy access to the freeway.

Dogs are welcome for a small fee.
