The hotel is located in a beautiful and quite area, but not far from Lucerne train station. We caught bus 24 and stop outside the hotel (approximately 5 min). The room was nice but the view made it so exceptional. The bath room is good and bed is comfortable. Unfortunately they do not provide kettle where we could have warm... more

As others advised, there is no airconditioning so we went there on 5 September and it didn't matter since it was cool. The view from our room was worth the trip. Mount Pilatus is what you see and there is no greater time to see it than sunset.. To get to town all you have to do is walk across... more

This hotel is outside the city limits of Lucerne, but right on the bus line. It takes about 5 minutes to take the bus downtown. The accomodations were excellent, although it was cool enough when we were there that we did not air conditioning. I have read some reviews that said it was bad when it was very hot. Being... more

Really nice little hotel. Very unassuming and fun. Close to Lucerne city centre about a 5 minute drive. Clean simple rooms with friendly and helpful staff. The hotel is situated on the lake (i.e. no road in between the hotel and the lake). If you are planning to stay in summer I would recommend the following: book the tennis court... more

This hotel is truly magnificent. Service is superb, but relaxed. The hotel is very classy but never snobby. The location is simply great: Stunning views on the Vierwaldstättersee. Excellent value. Would definetly recommend this to everyone, and will revisit the hotel soon. more

Gorgeous views of lake. Hotel is right on lake unlike many other hotels with water views that have road in front of them-then water. We had jr suite and balcony was great. It is not located right in center of town but so easy to get to! Walk out of train station and you will see immediately to your right... more

Stayed here over the second weekend in June for a wedding. The first thing we noticed wass the extraordinary location and beautiful views. The weather was a tad warm that weekend and very humid, and we were very displeased to discover that the rooms did not have A/C. We thought that the fresh, cool night air would do the trick,... more

We really enjoyed our stay at Hermitage Hotel. The views from our room were amazing and we found the grounds of the hotel, which gently slope down to the lake, beautiful. There is an enclosed bathing area which requires a 4 digit pin code to enter which makes you feel safe leaving your stuff while you go for a swim... more

My mom and I stayed one night at this hotel on June 19, 2006, and although the room was fairly decent, it was far away from the city. You would have to either take a cab 30 CHF or a bus to get to the city, walking would be very far. We ended up checking out after one night and... more
