In expensive Lucerne, this hotel turned out to be good value. We paid 150 SF for a double that included continental breakfast and super fast WIFI. Location is very convenient, about 10 mins walk from the station and just 5 minutes to the Old Town. It is a clean, compact hotel, with mediocre sized rooms and bathrooms, in very simple... more

If you are fine with no hot water after 10pm then this is the hotel for you.. Two nights running there was no hot water late at night and as there is no real reception we saw other guests staying in the hotel going down into the bar in their pajamas to complain. When it came to checking out they... more

We were very impressed with the location, helpfulness of staff and cleanliness of our triple room in the Goldener Stern. The view from our three large windows was of a beautiful church and its garden square. The Chapel bridge was situated only 5 minutes by foot and the main train station less than 10 minutes away so you don't need... more

Stayed here for one night during easter vacation. Nice location, close to Lucerne Rail Station. Room was below average size for a double bedroom as was the bathroom. Has its own restaurant with some good food options. Breakfast did not have many choices. more

Very clean, nicely decorated hotel less than ten minute walk from the train station and the main part of the old town. On a quiet side street. Good breakfast.

We stayed at the Goldener Stern while in Lucerne for two nights in August and have all but good things to say about it.
