Everything about this hotel is great besides the beds. Mattresses are way too soft and one sinks into them.

Beautiful Hotel!

Amazing hotel!! We were greeted so kindly with complimentary wine and were allowed to check in early. The room is beautiful as are the restaurant and bar. The most incredible thing about this hotel though is the view. It really is like staying in a castle. Cannot recommend enough!

Birthday adventure

Great views! Friendly and helpful staff! Easy to get to the walking district of Luzern with use of the funicular at the hotel.
Shar, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

This is my third time staying at Chateau Guestch. It is absolutely gorgeous, literally out of a fairy tale. The staff is warm, welcoming, kind and genuinely helpful. I will most definitely return.
amina, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

A somewhat quirky hotel that is not your run of the mill location. Popular among Amercans. Major glimmers of 19th century charm away from the bustle of Lucerne, yet very close via the funicular (or mini tram), which is charming and free for guests. A great place for gentle hikes and walking in the woods. Lucern has a clear culture of kindness. Be sure to fit in with the flow and be a gracious traveler!

Top quality hotel with great service. Breakfast had a large variety and the food was good too.
Guang Yu, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

This is a really superb hotel. The room was extremely comfortable and the views of Lucerne (including from the little balcony of our room) were incredible. Everything about our stay was great, including the friendly and helpful staff (who were very welcoming of our cockapoo dog who travelled with us). Being up on the hill (with easy access via a funicular lift) also makes the hotel feel very safe and private. While it's obviously not the cheapest hotel around, we thought it was very good value for money. Highly recommended.
