4/10 Fair

Novelty isn't always enjoyable
First the good - reliable warm shower a god send in winter, mattress is the firmer and harder kind (a delight for me but not for all), breakfast at Krone Hotel is an absolute highlight with a humble but hearty spread that's affordable and comes with amazingly warm service. BUT, room is in proximity to a super loud clock tower that chimes every 15 minutes ALL THROUGH the night. There is no air conditioning in the room, relying purely on the windows to let in cool air during winter and a heating panel below the window but it is not temperature adjustable. And the theme of the room all depends on luck, we got ourselves the Swiss Chalet which we thought those red curtains are super error to begin with and decors with eerie smiles leaves little to be desired.

Great hotel
That was one of the best hotel accommodation we ever had before. They upgraded up to honeymoon room and it had hands down the best view over the Lucern! The rooms were large and clean. We even ended up to buy breakfast there because it was decent for the money they charge.

We liked the property’s proximity to many of the sights to see in Luzern, however one day we came back from a day of going out and the door was wide open. We doubled checked when we left that the door was closed, so it must have been housekeeping that left our door wide open. Luckily all our things were still in the room and not stolen. After that we did not let housekeeping come into our room in fear that they would leave our door wide open again.

Rude receptionist
The receptionist guy not friendly, I left my insulin at the room and i came back from olten back to luzern to retrieve my insulin and i ran from the train station to the hotel and the receptionist guy was so rude he thought i was rushing him, i was just out of breath because i ran from the terminal worried that the cleaner threw my insulin, he was rude when i was asking him if they already cleaned the room. He said i dont know!!! And just gave me key to the room and look for it .

Excellent location in historic inner city! Walkable everywhere in town to restaurants, shopping and sightseeing from the hotel! Wonderful staff at checking office located right at the hotel Krone right around the corner! Clean room and facility! Only very few utility vehicles as that part of the city is closed to traffic! Only minutes away walk from the train station across the bridge. Thank you altstadt Magic lucern hotel!👍

Save yourself and your trip by not booking this property. All the things mentioned in other reviews (webs, check in at other hotel, no parking, terrible odour in the room, and flight of stairs) are all true. I wasted 1 hr just to find the hotel, another hr to cancel the property and find another hotel because the hotel was in such poor state.

We reached the hotel on the 6th October. The reception staff namely; Kay was very helpful and accomodating, on our request we were provided the room a bit earlier than the check-in time. Our room was on the 6th floor. After check-in we went around the Lucerne Lake. After coming back to the hotel we found that the elevator was not working so we went to the reception and informed the front office man who expressed his inability to do anything because no technician would be available on that day as it was a Sunday. I explained to the front office man that it would not be possible for my wife to climb the stairs and he should shift us to another property. To our absolute pleasure and surprise we were accommodated in a suite on the 1st Floor
