Hotel Luzernerhof

10/10 Excellent
"The hotel staff were super friendly and helpful on check in! The hotel is a little dated but decently clean. It is in the perfect location! We walked from the train, took a few mins and was a flat walk. Then throughout our stay we were able to pop into the hotel because it was right in the middle of all the attractions! Recommend staying here!"
