The hotel bldg is a bit dated. You can hear the people chatting in the street until early morning. Footsteps from the upper floors are annoying specially past midnight. The good thing about this hotel is must the location.

Bar/club Downstairs could hear everything. This was despite being on one of the top floors. Paper thin walls between rooms, could hear everything from the neighbours. Great location but not worth staying there due to all the other faults.

Great hotel and location right next to the train station. The only downside was that they weren't staffed over the winter so we had to check in at a different hotel, but it wasn't a big inconvenience.

Dated hotel and rooms need TLC, but great value for price and location. Check in is at a nearby hotel, but very friendly staff. Very close to Lucerne Station. Only concern is there are bars down below and people hung out on the street and got so loud until 2AM on the weekdays and 4AM on a Saturday we were there, hence there was earplugs provided in the room.

You have to walk to the Monopol sister property reception depending on the time of arrival/to resolve some issue. No AC in some rooms ; they told me they are not required to provide it because it’s a 3 star. I booked thru Expedia, who said there was AC. I was charged extra for an additional bed, which was more like a stretcher.

We reserved and paid for our room months in advance. When we arrived on a rainy night after traveling the receptionist informed us that they were over booked and they “upgraded” us to a hotel across town and all we had to do is go back out in the rain with our luggage and wait for a bus. Our”upgraded” hotel was near nothing at we spent hundreds of dollars over the course of 3 days on cabs and walked miles to get our group back to the area where we were originally booked, for restaurants a sight seeing. Another family was trying to check in at the same time and were also sent across town in the rain. Terrible experience. Do not book here and expect to have a room. They did nothing in they way of compensation, they just expected us to accept their incompetence and lack of professionalism. Zero Stars. Less if possible.
