Hotel Renaissance di Lucerne

Rooms are small but worth it for the location. Practically next to the train station but without any of the noise. Front desk folks were friendly and very helpful. Would definitely stay again. Breakfast was also great.

Amazing hotel near Luzerne train station. Many bakery nearby. Hotel staff was friendly and kind, provided toiletries and water. Breakfast was simple but good enough to start the day. Very short walk to the old town area which was great!

Six of us stayed for two nights in three rooms and had a comfortable, if somewhat hot stay as there was no air con although there was a small table fan. The rooms were basic but, even though two were at the front, were quiet and they were clean. Breakfast was ok, good espresso from the machine. Great central location with an easy walk to the station.

Note: I'm posting this after first sending it to the Monopol to allow them a chance for a fair response. They did not respond. We stayed in Monopol for 3 nights in late August 2024. The hotel is convenient to the train station. The room was OK until at 11:00 our first night we noticed a water leak dripping down from the ceiling...into my open luggage. Since there was NO PHONE is our room, I had to walk down to the front desk, and found no one there. A sign directed me to call (#61?), but no one answered. Went back up to the room and tried to clean up the mess. Went down to the a 2nd time...still no one there and no one answering the phone. 10 mins later we went down a THIRD time and finally found a clerk and another employee. Their solution was to offer us another room for the night only....we would not be moved into it since it was promised to another guest the next night. We opted to stay in our room so as to not have to move all our things for a just a few hours. The next day the front desk manager (Paul?) told us he fixed the leak. The next night the leak began again, this time by the bathroom door. It soaked the carpet and forced us to jump over the the soggy carpet to get into our bathroom. We informed the front desk, and the manager assured us it would be fixed, and said issues like this happen...”It's an old hotel” he said. He apologized for our inconvenience. There was no attempt to compensate us for the unsatisfactory room beyond an offer to give us a free breakfast the next morning, something we had already paid for. A staffer offered to throw my wet clothes in the dryer, but not to wash them from the funky water that dripped onto them. We got a meek ”We're sorry” when we checked out. We understand that an issue like this can affect any single night in any hotel. However, when the problem goes to a SECOND night, after we were promised it was fixed, then the lack of resolution is unacceptable. Our room was clearly not up to full price standards, and yet the Monopol was willing to charge us that much, and offer only a ”we're sorry” as a management response.

My room was upgraded to a bigger room with two single beds. The service was very good and the room was clean and neat. Everything seems quite new. It takes about 8 mins to walk from the train station or bus station so a pretty good location by the beautiful lakeside. Nothing to complaint about!

I never experienced a hotel elevator that only stopped between floors. If you have heavy luggage forget this place. Not only is the elevator an issue but it's tiny as well. If you are handicapped in any way stay away from this dangerous place.

Great location, near train station, Old Town and Lake Lucerne. Our room was spacious and well maintained. The bed was comfortable. Front desk was pleasant and helpful. You should book a quiet room since the rooms facing the street can be noisy. My only criticisms were that they did not have a fan available for the room on our first night, which is very strange considering the hotel does not have air conditioning. Also, the the bathtub walls were high making it difficult to use. The bottom of the tub was slippery. It needed either rubber *****s or a mat.

I was really excited to start travelling after 2 years hiatus. I chose Switzerland as I had already made plans for the a 3 weeks trip in May 2020. I had to cancel it due to the COVID-19 pandemic. I picked Alpina Hotel in Luzerne due to its great loation and affordability. It is near many eateries and other attractions. I booked 2 rooms; 338 and 339. We get to enjoy the street view and marvelled at the beautiful building opposite our rooms. I noticed that the opposite building was built in 1537 [ need to confirm this ]. The street was generally quiet except in the mornings when rubbish trucks cleared did their cleaning. The room has simple layout and mine has 2 sinks in the living area. The bed and pillows area are comfortable. The bathroom is small but all items worked well. I did not see any staff at Alpina as most of them were based at the nearby sister hotel, The Monopol, which is located about 20m away. Checking in was fast and easy and it was done at Monopol. I was grateful for all the guidance and assistance provided by the receptionist. Alpina hotel is located about 110m away from Luzerne Train Station and it was relatively easy to find. My room ; 339 is bigger than 338. All in all, I had a really great experience staying in this hotel.
