"The hotel is located further up from Lucerne. Easy access by bus to the popular spots. Breakfast was good. Outdated rooms but clean. No AC available which made the nights very hot is my main complaint. Hotel staff was friendly and helpful."

"We stayed in the panorama suite - truly one of the best rooms we’ve ever stayed in. Views were absolutely incredible, the room is designed immaculately and it had so many amazing features (steam shower, jacuzzi bath, walk in closet). Aside from the room the lobby / bar areas of the hotel are stunning with the same beautiful views of the mountains. The ability to have direct access to the water is great. Getting into the center of the city is very easy via bus. I really hope I get the chance to stay here again."

"The bed was comfortable and the room was clean. It is a very basic room, which we knew going in. The only thing that was not so great was the door that opened to the toilet had no frame and/or fan so any odors filled the entire room (more information than you were hoping for but needs considering)."

"The front-desk staff was friendly and helpful. We absolutely loved the patio with the beautiful view of the Lucerne rooftops. The only things we would have loved to have had in the room would have been a small refrigerator and access to ice (for drinks on a hot day). A great option for Lucerne. Another great think to know about IBIS Styles is that it's in a very convenient location to all the "action", yet sits on a quiet street. Great area for walking and exploring."
