Very nice traditional Swiss hotel. Incredible views of the countryside. I found it to be very spartan with no TV and very basic bedding which was not very comfortable. The bath room is across the hall and not in the same room. Even though it listed “free breakfast” according to Expedia we were charged 15 CF per person per day. This was a nice one time experience but I would not stay here again.

Beautiful Alpine Getaway

We were pleasantly surprised that Hammer was basically hotel for hikers and was located high up a narrow mountain road. We had a private bathroom and a wonderful view of the mountains. The staff were pleasant and helpful. I highly recommend this to anyone who loves the mountains

A short walk from the bus stop from Lucerne. The staff were very helpful and patient with questions (spoke many languages!) The rooms are charming with unbelievable views. Although the hallway sensor light took some time to get used to it was fine. Food was excellent. We even got to see an amazing trio (Viola, violin and piano) followed by a champagne reception and 4 course dinner! Will definitely return!

This hotel was beautiful! We had a car, which made it easy to get to. There was a bus station at the bottom of the hill if you don't have a car. Stephanie, our hostess, was so nice and accommodating. The breakfast was good. The restaurant was closed for dinner the two nights we were there during the week. I would recommend this place if you want an excellent view of the ALPS.

If you prefer to stay in an area that has countryside flavor, this is the place! Picturistically surrounded by mountains and not so far away from a nearby town center (by driving). Amazingly, it also has a bus route to a public parking area about 300 meters away, and a trailhead to Mt. Pilatus (2-3 hours straight up, as we were told). Easy driving to Kriens where the cable car takes you to the top of Pilatus. You can also take the cogwheel train to the other side of the mountain. Either take a train or a boat to the Lucerne. In the city center, a bus can take you back to Kriens where you park your car. Staffs are all friendly and enthusiastic to give you advice. Fantastic place!

What a really nice location. Indeed, what a beautiful view!!! Food at the restaurant was stupendous! The reception Mr.Gentleman (I forgot his name) was really nice and accomodating. I was going to stay another night but it was fully booked. Had I known that, I should have booked for 2-3 nights. Nevertheless, now I know where to go for a good relaxing weekend! I highly recommend this hotel. Awesome stay, awesome staff and awesome food!!!!
