“Suburban hotel with large and comfortable rooms and a great breakfast!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 4 October 2011
1
person found this review helpful

Hotel Felmis is a 20 minute bus ride from the Lucerne train station and downtown area. The bus system in Lucerne is reliable and easy to use, so it's no trouble getting to and from the hotel, even with luggage. The hotel is literally next to the Felmis bus stop. If you do have a car, there's a parking lot across from the hotel.

We had a double room, which is basically two single beds pushed together. (The comforters were even separate, but if you're married to someone who tends to steal the covers, that's a nice treat!) The TV was easy to use, and the hotel has free wi-fi. The shower pressure and temperature was excellent, and the entire room and bathroom were quite large, comparable to the size of a Hilton or Sheraton room in the US. When you leave the hotel, you lock your room key into a wall system and take a smaller, unmarked key with you, for security. The smaller key also opens the hotel's front door in case you're coming in late.

A continental breakfast is included with the room, and it included a cold meat tray, hard boiled eggs, fruits, jam/jelly, yogurt, coffee and espresso, juices, cereal, pastries, and bread that was so good it made me want to steal the loaf! There is a restaurant on-site, but we did not try it. (We opted to eat in town instead.)

“We felt very comfortable here - great service”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 18 July 2011

Check-in was very easy and the gentleman who helped us was wonderful! He helped us to find a place to have dinner since the restaurant there was out of our price-range. He even reminded us to follow the speed limit. Such wonderful service!
There was plenty of free parking and we took advantage of the high-speed internet.
The room was very clean and large. There were only single beds but they were relatively comfortable. There is lots of storage space and even a safe in the room.
The only thing we didn't like was that there was no separate shower... the showerhead just poured right onto the bathroom floor so the floor and toilet got wet whenever we took a shower.
Overall, we were very pleased. The price seemed very high for what we got, but we assume we were paying for location (near Lucerne) and not just for the hotel itself.

“very good hotel in pleasant setting with mountain views”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 3 June 2011
1
person found this review helpful

The rooms here are more functional than beautiful, but are comfortable, very clean and well maintained. The restaurant is well worth dining in. We stayed for 2 nights, and the proprietor helpfully pointed out we could do the 'Golden Round Trip' to Mt Pilatus by catching a 5 minute bus ride to the local ferry stop on the lake, rather than go in to central Luzern. This was very helpful and of course all the Swiss services ran exactly on schedule. the breakfast choice was wide and good quality. The swiss franc is expensive but this place is reasonable value compared to most others.

“Modern hotel outside the city centre”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 10 May 2011

A nice modern hotel a few kilometres from the centre of Lucerne. Stayed 3 nights in June in room 23 on the top floor with a nice view over the park and tennis courts across the road and mountains in the distance. The room was a decent sized and nice if basically furnished. It had a small alcove with cair a step up with a nice skylight which gave the room a nice airy feeling. Small but nice bathroom, but a little odd in that the sink was outside the bathroom in the main room.
Breakfast was served in a nice room on the ground floor and had enough for a good start to the day. Free and plentiful parking. The hotel had a restaurant which I didn’t use during my stay but was always busy when I was there. The staff were friendly and efficient.
I liked the hotel but it is a little way out of the historic centre of Lucerne but great if you are driving..

“Okay Hotel”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 17 July 2010
1
person found this review helpful

We stayed here for three nights in July when the temperature was >80-85 degrees, This places is relatively far from the Lucerne main station and bus service is relatively infrequent in the evening.

Overall okay place. Rooms were small, the windows were nice. Really not having airconditioning was quite difficult. The worst part of this hotel was the sheets were very uncomfortable. They were worn out and were rough. Both me and my wife just couldn't sleep well in night at all. We asked the front desk twice but no help.

The breakfast was nice, pretty much typical swiss breakfast. The area was beautiful, kind of a nice from the busy Lucerne.

Overall probably would not recommend to an average US traveller.
