Due to limited time in Switzerland, could only spend a day at Luzern.A bit overhyped but picturesque, nevertheless. Finding this hotel is quite easy, as it is smacked in the part of old Luzern, right opposite the Franziskankirche. Just take any bus at the Luzern train station that stops at Franziskanplatz and you are just steps away from the hotel.... More

Our stay at Hotel Schlussel was okay, but we would not recommend to friends. Hotel was old, room was more like a dorm room, bathroom was very small, and hallways were always dark. Breakfast was okay with nice service from the staff, but really nothing special.

The staff are friendly. The hotel and rooms are small, but it is clean. It is located next to a church, the quarterly and hourly chime may disturb your sleep.

Nice room -- had everything we needed for a comfortable night. Breakfast was very good with great service. One drawback... the door to the front desk is locked overnight -- another nearby hotel can be contacted in an emergency,

We stayed at hotel Schlussel at the end of August and found the place to be acceptable for a short stay. Staff, as far as we could tell mainly middle aged women, were nice and helpful enough, although not particularly professional in the restaurant. Food in the restaurant was again acceptable, while we would agree with other comments that the... More

Our room for three nights was at the front of the hotel, with a balcony overlooking Franziskanerplatz. The square contained a fountain and a Franciscan church in one of the oldest parts of town. The area was exceptionally quiet; amazing considering it is moments from Spreuerbrucke and the other heavily touristed parts of this pretty and popular destination. As ever... More

Small and friendly and convenient for walking to the town. We made the mistake of going during Euro 2008 and it was difficult to avoid the football, but at least this hotel didn't have a huge TV in the lounge. Our room at the front was good with a good view across the square and to the church, but our... More
