“This family-run establishment benefits significantly from its lakeside location, offering direct access to swimming in Lake Lucerne. Rooms are generally spacious, many including balconies to better appreciate the views. The hotel's dining emphasizes fresh, locally sourced fish, and I think its Asian restaurant is a notable feature.”
