Great location in the hart of the old town. Rooms are all unique. We stayed in two different rooms. One was rather small. There is no air conditioning so we needed to keep the windows opened. It was rather noisy.

Great location in the Old Town and easy walk from the Train Station. Check-in is at a different hotel, Krone, but it is just a short walk away. There is an elevator, but be aware that the rooms are half a flight of stairs away from the floor, so you will have to navigate some stairs with your suitcases (2 stairs to get into the building and 6-7 stairs to get to your room). We had a large room with a small balcony overlooking the square and a view to the river (I think it was the only room with a balcony). We enjoyed having a coffee there watching the activities on the square. Lots of restaurants nearby. The room was a good size with a large jetted tub and quirky, albeit comfortable furniture. Would stay there again

The room itself was clean and ideally located in the old town area. There were many restaurants and shops nearby. However, we weren’t aware and didn’t appreciate that this hotel didn’t have a reception area. We had to walk an additional 2 blocks with luggage to check in at Hotel Krone. There was literally no staff at Magic Hotel. We had minimal contact with Hotel Krone staff.

Our stay at Alstadt Hotel Magic in Lucerne was very nice. The check in process was easy. The staff was friendly and helpful. We arrived via car which was valet parked and returned to us on demand which was nice. The location of the hotel is great. You are steps away from the sites and not far from the train station. There are numerous restaurants all within walking distance.

The location of the hotel could not have been better. Very easily walkable to all parts of old Lucerne. Wish we had known there was no AC, but we did visit during an unusual heat wave. Also know that the staff are located at a different hotel about a block away.

Our room was in the hotel magic on the fifth floor. Elevator only went to the fourth floor and a short landing needed to be reversed carrying up suitcases. We were there during an inordinately high temperature. With the environmental temperature matching the room temperature at 93°F. No AC was available. A fan only blue hot air around. The temperature at night never got below 90° so we canceled our three day reservation after one day and moved to an air-conditioned hotel. Otherwise, the location was very good in the central part of the city good walking distance for all Major sites. Not that far to the train station. Due to the stairs and lack of air-conditioning, we would not utilize this hotel in the future.

The room was well appointed with just about balcony view of the river. However, the overall appearance of the hotel is all a bit low key, check in is at the nearby Krone hotel and the entrance to magic is very underwhelming. The room was a bit tacky, but functional for a short break
