The views and hospitality of the hotel went way beyond my expectations. Breakfast was delicious and the Sonnenberg ride was very enjoyable and cute. The visitor pass that was shared with us was also very convenient for free public transportation and discounted museum tickets!

Hotel Sonnenberg is super!

Hotel Sonnenberg was very clean and its location on the hill provided wonderful views, even though it rained the whole timescale were there. The breakfast was excellent and the staff members were all so helpful with helping us with directions, figuring out transportation, etc. I highly recommend this hotel and even better if you have a vehicle, as it’s a bit outside of Lucerne. Still manageable even if you don’t have a vehicle, though, with Uber in to town.

The views from this property are absolutely amazing! The beds were comfortable, facilities nice and clean, etc. We enjoyed the buffet breakfast, perfect for fueling up for a day of exploring. There was a little miscommunication with our reservation payment since we reserved through CheapTickets and not the hotel directly, but the manager, whose name I think was Claudia (?), was absolutely wonderful in getting it resolved for us without any issues. Would definitely stay here again and recommend it to anyone staying in the area.

Cute and quaint

We stayed in the corner room, which had its own bathroom and a lovely patio. We didn’t realize beforehand that other rooms share a bathroom, so we were pleasantly surprised to have a private one. It's worth noting that, like many hotels in Europe, this one isn’t staffed in the evenings. After 6 PM, there were no employees on-site. That also means no room service or food. However, they did leave out snacks and supplies on different floors, along with detailed instructions in case we needed anything. Once we adjusted to the setup, the stay was truly enjoyable. We especially loved having breakfast on the patio each morning. The staff were friendly and eager to help during the day, and the overall experience felt cozy and home-like, with stunning views of the city. Highly recommend!

Stayed here for one night as a stopover driving to Italy. The views from the hotel are breathtaking. However the hotel I would say is in need of some upgrading. We were on the 2nd floor - no lift. Staff were polite but not very smiley. We paid over £500 for 2 rooms, which even in Switzerland was expensive for the quality of accommodation. The restaurant was way too expensive so we went down into Kriens for our evening meal. The EV car charger in the hotel car park was handy and simple to use.

We had a one-night stay at Hotel Sonnenberg. It is located about 15 min (or 8-10km) drive from Lucern. Very convenient for those who have a car. Parking is provided and complimentary. The room and bathroom are in ok size. Quite basic and may need some upgrading; but clean. The view from the balcony of the room is gorgeous. Very open and can see the mountains and beautiful scenery. There is a Michelin 1 star restaurant at the hotel. We had dinner there and enjoyed every single course of our 5-course dinner. Service is impeccable. Dinner is definitely the highlight of our hotel stay. An entirely pleasant surprise for us. Now comes the "Negatives" -- there is no elevator at the hotel. We had to drag our luggages up two flights of stairs. What is more, there are no one working at 3ish pm when we checked in. We got our room key from a lock box. However, there was no one there to help us at all with the luggages or answer questions we had. There were a few people around, but no one offered to help us with the luggages at all. I sent email to them earlier. They were neither not replied or took them a long time to reply. Customer service definitely has to be improved.

We were not told that the restaurant and bar would be closed on a Monday. By the time we got back to hotel, the desk was also closed for the night. The hotel is in an absolutely beautiful location, the desk staff when there were extremely nice and helpful. The tram going up and down the hill was an adventure and the bus was easy to catch. A car is a must especially when restaurant is closed.

Room with a view

The location is lovely, situated on a hill with beautiful hills all around. If you don't have a car to drive here, public transit is a little challenging, but if you don't mind walking the final quarter mile, it's a beautiful walk. Breakfast was very good each morning. Be sure to check the days that the restaurant will be open for dinner. We didn't, and unfortunately the restaurant was closed for dinner both evenings we stayed at the hotel. While it was extremely warm both nights due to a heat wave and no A/C in the rooms, we would stay here again due to the clean and comfortable rooms, views, and quality of accommodations.

Quite possibly the best breakfast view I’ve ever had at an hotel. We woke on our 1st of 3 nights to the stunning view looking up to Mount Pilatus & across the Lucerne valley. Just amazing views on the terrace wherever you looked. Our room was fine, everything that we needed, breakfast was pleasant can order eggs to your liking. There’s mini golf onsite too. Yes the hotel is about 15 mins out of town, but very much worth it just for the views that change during the day.

Hilltop hotel with amazing views.

Some of the best views you could ask for with the local cows coming out at night, bringing the soothing sounds with them. It was very hot for the time of year and no AC in my room. They did offer a fan and with the windows open, it was still comfortable to sleep. No iron available so bring your own if that’s a necessity.
