Overall a good experience, but hard to shake-off the weird vibe of sleeping in an old jail. The room was comfortable, but basic. We were in the handicap accessible room and it came with a large private ensuite bathroom and a "sexy" jailhouse mural on the wall. We did not have any trouble with noise from the nighclub because it... More

We stayed here as part of our contiki tour. I must say we were very impressed with the whole outlook and feel of the hotel and if not for this terrible experience with one of their staff, i would highly recommend this place to anyone looking for something different. Firstly, check in was ok. Free wifi in the tiny lobby... More

Stayed here one night as part of a group tour this past summer. The rooms are modified jail rooms (bunk beds, toilets, and bars for window). Our showers were across the hallway and we had to share it with other people as well. Since the window bars are always open we could hear the noise from outside during the night.... More

Stayed there on a tour with middle school children - they were fascinated by the atmosphere. There are exhibits of jail artifacts (plates, uniforms, restraining cuffs, etc.) to amuse them. The rooms are VERY small, and the bathroom lacks privacy, so only go there if you want a change of pace and feel adventurous. Good access to local sights and... More

Let's face it, Switzerland is bloody expensive to travel to, and this is one of the cheapest accomodations my fiance and I could find. The room was small, but we aren't that fussy. I would NOT recommend this to a family, especially a family who has anyone that they could give the title of "fussy" or "high maintenance". So if... More

I stayed here with a tour and it was supposed to be a novelty thing, but we went in and... yeah. I don't wanna stay in Jail. The whole night we spent walking around town to avoid staying in Jail. also, the beds are as comfortable as one would expect in Jail. you basically get what some people will call... More

I stayed here on a tour, so had no idea we would be sleeping in a jail on our stay in Lucerne! I was a little freaked out when they told us it was a jail hotel.. but it wasn't as bad as I expected. Our room was very basic. 2 single beds & a small built in bathroom. The... More

My title says it all. It was creepy and pretty much left the way it was as a jail. What was even crazier was that parts of the floor we were on had motion-sensored lighting. Seriously!?!? I would not ever think about returning. More

Where do I begin -- when we arrived, the reception office was closed and lights off -- the security guys at the door (who are there for the night club in the hotel that goes on until 8:00 a.m.!!) had to go find the guy; he seemed pretty dopey; anyhow, we went to our "room", which was a jail cell!...
