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

NO AC!!! Be aware that this hotel has no AC. Typically the town of Lucerne has mild weather but we ended there when it was 90* and without AC it was hard to breathe and sleep. Besides that the hotel is near everything and very convenient to walk around.

The hotel bldg is a bit dated. You can hear the people chatting in the street until early morning. Footsteps from the upper floors are annoying specially past midnight. The good thing about this hotel is must the location.

This property is excellent and affordable. It’s in a great location convenient to the train station and old town. There is an awesome local bar downstairs called Franky and also close for an easy quick bite there is a pizza restaurant The room was very clean and great Swiss design. The staff was so friendly and helpful. Very happy with our stay!

Dated hotel and rooms need TLC, but great value for price and location. Check in is at a nearby hotel, but very friendly staff. Very close to Lucerne Station. Only concern is there are bars down below and people hung out on the street and got so loud until 2AM on the weekdays and 4AM on a Saturday we were there, hence there was earplugs provided in the room.

Avoid at All Costs – Deceptive Staff, Miserable Stay Hotel Alpina was one of the worst hotel experiences I’ve ever had. The front desk staff outright lies to your face — claiming someone is “inspecting the room” just to avoid letting you in before the 3 PM check-in, even when the room is clearly ready. Zero flexibility, zero hospitality. The room itself? Tiny, claustrophobic, and stifling — there’s no air conditioning, and the space is barely livable. The bathroom is so cramped that two people can’t even brush their teeth at the same time. It’s like staying in a closet. The elevator fits one person with a bag (barely), and the hotel is located on an incredibly noisy street where people yell and fight well into the night. It feels like a total ghetto. Do not be fooled by any photos or reviews — stay far away from this place. I wouldn’t recommend this hotel to anyone, not even for one night.
