Stayed in honeymoon suite with a beautiful view of the city and river. Bed was comfortable, room was clean and enjoyed our stay. Thankfully there were fans in the room to keep you cool because no A/C. If you do some research ahead of time finding the hotel and check in location is easy.

Mixed reviews for this

The hotel was in a great location- nice and easy to walk to several restaurants and shopping. We really enjoyed that. However, there was no a/c, the WiFi never worked at all, and check in was at another hotel and then a short walk to our hotel. That meant if we needed anything, we had to walk to the other hotel.
Traci, 4-night trip

Great location
Alexander, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

The room was great and the front office staff were wonderfully helpful. The internet was a disaster, worked intermittently and made it appear Safari wasn’t working on my iPad. Wish there was air conditioning.
Marla, 3-night trip

2/10 Poor

NO air conditioning. Room was not cleaned well. Toilet had stains in there well. Only plus was the prime location.
Bhawandeep, 3-night trip

8/10 Very good

Great convenient location. H see vé to to main Hotel Krone for check-in, do not go direct to hotel Magic.
Tien Dung, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Stayed in the honeymoon suite with our two boys and parents and there was plenty of room however only one shower. The location is excellent - centrally located and very walkable. Hotel staff was nice and facility was clean. My mom was very happy to have fresh towels every day without asking. No AC and temperatures in the 80's, so an extra oscillating fan would have been nice, but not a deal breaker.
Joseph, 3-night trip

6/10 Good

First of all, car navigation cannot find the hotel location, had to stop and ask people for the directions. Second, reception is in other hotel close by…. Rooms don’t have AC. Very complicated…..very expensive . The only positive side is the location of the hotel.

Excellent location, right in the heart of old town. Only challenge was that we happened to pick a time when Lucerne was having a heat wave and the room we had was hot and there’s no air conditioning. They did have at least one working fan but it was still very hot
