Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Facility is clean and staff is attentive and professional, yet personable. As is with many small hotels in Europe, the rooms are small and showing their age but clean. The location is amazing, walking distance to most of the major attractions in Lucerne, and the train/boat stations are literally just around the corner (so getting anywhere outside the city is super easy)…I can see why Hotel Alpina is highly rated, and I would recommend it also.

We loved it here, except that we were in the heat of summer. It has no air conditioning but they do provide a fan for each side of the bed. Its a great area and everything we needed was within walking distance. I would stay here again if I were not travelling in summer.

The hotel is older and does not have great air conditioning, but they do have floor fans in the room that were on when we arrived. We were on the 5th floor, so it's helpful that they have a lift/elevator. It is small but does the trick with luggage. If a top priority is distance to the train station, this one is a good option.

The location is perfect, being next to the train station, boat quay (for trips across Lake Lucerne), concert hall (for the Lucerne Music Festival), and steps from the downtown and famous old bridges. Since Lucerne is so expensive, having the train station underground mall nearby is handy since it has relatively affordable groceries (the Coop store is awesome). Also, the train station has an amazing Tourist Info office that’s a great resource, and its entrance is right across the street from the street Alpina sits on. So convenient! Also, the pizza restaurant next door to Alpina is fabulous, and the rooftop bar at neighboring Monopole Hotel is the perfect place to go after you check in, for the views and ambience. We loved the fresh fruit left for guests at the front desk each morning; it made for good snacks later when we were on the train back from the mountains. Alpina was perfect for our family of four; we appreciated the quad room that allowed us to have separate beds for the teens and two rooms. I wouldn’t want to stay anywhere else.

The hotel is a beautiful old hotel, the rooms were updated with new windows and balcony door....which we needed because the street noise was loud and it was loud very late. There is no air-conditioning so leaving the window and balcony door open for the cool breeze was a must. Bed and pillows were comfy and the location is great for the train and overall sightseeing.We had a good stay.

I liked the cute balconies and that the rooms have been renovated , The location was also good . The room was nice and my only complaint is that the floor was a little sticky . Although the front desk clerk was efficient I thought she could be a little more welcoming . All in all a good stay

Hotel Alpina is in a great location very close to Lucerne Main train station. Located in the heritage district, this hotel has character. We stayed for 3 nights. Evenings were a little noisy but that didn't worry us too much. The Las, I'm sorry I cannot remember your name, who was on the front desk was an absolute delight. She was always happy to see us on our return each day from adventuring into the alps. Hotel Alpina became our home away from home. On our second day we requested another fan for our room, and it was replaced immediately. I recommend Hotel Alpina and would certainly stay again.
