We have always stayed at Monopol when we go to Lucerne. The proximity to the train and the lake is superb. The reception staff were very personable. Even though I always consider Lucerne hotels to be quite expensive, I got a same day deal that pleased me. And the AC during this heat wave was needed and excellent!

There was 8 off us in our group with 4 rooms. A couple of the rooms seemed a little more updated but they were all fine. Our blind did not work in our room but not a big issue. The breakfast buffet offered hot and cold choices. It was very good!! The location right next to the train station was perfect and the main area of town was an easy walk! If we come back to Lucerne we will stay there I again.

Unbeatable location next to Lucerne Station and Tourist Office.We had a Junior Suite (419) which was large but rather tired with many stains on the carpet and poorly lit - no ceiling lights and only 2 free standing lamps in seating and cupboards area. Newly refurbished bathroom with excellent lighting and good bath/shower together with 2 sinks. Pretty poor breakfast for CHF25 with consistently overcooked scramble eggs.
