      Location is abt 10 to 15 mins walk from main train station. Nearby shops and restaurants are available. Room is quite spacious but no hot water kettle. But not a big concern cos you can request for hot water from the restaurant downstairs. There is also microwave at the common area. Recommended (:

      Great location, pricey optional items.”

      I traveled with my wife, infant daughter, and our cat. The location is tough to beat, but it was loud late into the night. Parking costs 26 Francs for 24 hrs, and breakfast is another 20 Francs or so. The room itself was pretty nice and had a mini-fridge. The front desk guy was helpful, just be aware there is no one there from 2100-0700. You have to check in at the Hotel Des Balance if you arrive really late.

      Loving the Location!”

      Altstadt Hotel Krone is well-situated in the Altstadt, within walking distance to many of the sights around the areas, as well as the shopping behind and around the hotel. The most challenging part of my stay was that the property was non-air conditional, hence in the peak of summer, the fans in the room were not be sufficient to cool the room down (even in the evening). However, the staff was really helpful in replacing one of the non-functioning fans in my room. I was truly thankful for that. Otherwise, this would definitely be a well-situated and clean accommodation, that is worth one's consideration and stay. Thank you for being part of my memories of Lucerne.

      Charming hotel in a lovely square”

      The hotel can be easily reached on foot from the train station; about 10 min walk by taking the left turn along the river before you cross the main bridge. Then you need to cross the river on the pedestrian bridge which is the one after the kapellbrucke, then turn left and walk towards the Fondue house and make a right turn and just continue on till you reach the charming little square. et voila !!

      Great location, limited room amenities”

      Altstadt Hotel Krone is located in the heart of old town where shops are abound. I could go back to the hotel to drop off my shopping bags or simply to use the toilet. It is also under 10 mins walk from the Lucerne train station and very easily accessible. It is also located very near Bodum and Aesop, if you are keen on those. Room is very spacious but lacked amenities such as toothbrush/toothpaste and kettle, which for me were basic items. Shower head did not have a good and consistent pressure and temperature. Bed was too soft for my liking. I stayed on level 4, which meant I sometimes hear noise from the laundry/staff room (it was on the same level, and not many rooms on the same level). However they are not major turnoffs and I would consider going back.

      Not bad location. Approximately 10mins walk from the train station. Room & toilet are clean and well maintained. Toilet is basic but that's all you need for a short trip.
