The Lion Lodge is good value. Especially in an expensive country. It is a 15minute walk to the center of town and the train station. There is only one shower per floor, so get up early or sleep in late if you want a shower. I'm an early riser so I had no issues with the shower. Wifi is mainly... More

Please choose this hostel , if you would like spend one or two night here.One advantage that the center is near.If arrive you by car , you have to book a "parking area" The kitchen isn't very clean.You can use the wifi only the common areas. There is one shower every floor, so you may have to wait for good... More

This was the worst hostel I've ever stayed at. It's loud, expensive, not very clean, and they nickel and dime you for everything. I stayed here last minute and there weren't a lot of accommodations available. The location is pretty good I'll give them that. I would only stay here if you are young and don't care about noise/cleanliness as... More

Put simply, just don't stay here if you can avoid it! Yes it's cheap for Switzerland but boy do you get what you pay for! The whole place is shabby, run down and has no real facilities not even an iron....we got robbed through the night mobiles and cash stolen which apparently doesnt happen in Lucerne (clearly it does) and...

Stayed here for two nights in a four bed dorm. Location is excellent, 5 mins walk into city and to lake, shops close by for food, tourist sites near by as well. Shops might be close by ... but don't expect to get into the kitchen easily, is very small for the hostel and often one or two cooking large... More

The whole hostel was a chaos, bad smell in all floors, the bathroom had the shower BROKEN! The staff is pathetic, completely unhelpful and the girl in reception even made our trip worst because of the wrong information she gave us. Run away of this hostel, you will not regret, even for the price. I will never come back to... More

Great location but lacked decent facilities. One bathroom (toilet/shower) per level for approx 40 people. Was not fun trying to get a shower in. Kitchen is very small and again same problem as of course Switerland is expensive so cooking makes things cheaper. Would stay again in off season only because it's right in heart of CBD.

I've only ever stayed in two hostels in my life, and this was the second one so I don't have a lot to compare my experience to, but here I go (I'm terrible at summarising so this is going to be a long one!) The hostel was very easy to find as its on one of the main streets in... More
