My stay at Schweizerhof was absolutely delightful! The rooms were not only very clean and nice but also dedicated to an artist or music band that stayed during an event, which added a special touch. The themed rooms with background theme music and memorabilia made my stay unique. The service was top-notch, exceeding my expectations with a professional and friendly attitude. The location couldn't be better, just across the street from Lake Luzern and close to all the attractions in Lucerne. Despite some dining issues, the overall experience was fantastic.
