What guests think

Travellers describe Hotel Monopol Luzern as exceptionally convenient, directly opposite Lucerne’s train station and within easy walking of the old town and lake, with many praising welcoming, helpful staff who assist with directions, upgrades, luggage storage, and early check‑ins.

Rooms vary: some are spacious and comfortable with views or air‑conditioning, while others feel small or dated, with dull lighting or older furniture, and street or club noise can disturb sleep on weekend nights. Cleanliness feedback is mixed—several guests found rooms very clean, but recurring complaints cite stained or worn carpets and occasional housekeeping lapses. Breakfast is generally well liked, though some found eggs poorly cooked, and Wi‑Fi reliability can be patchy. Expect a super‑central base with variable room quality.

Facilities

Facilities are simple but useful: guests like the rooftop bar for its views, while parking exists yet is very limited and drop‑off near the station can be awkward.

sehr freundliches Personal. Immer eine gute Auskunft und Empfehlung. Auch Reinigungskräfte sind sehr freundlich und sorgfältig. frühstück ist mittelmäßig. Okay. Kaffee und Teeauswahl sehr gut. Frisches Obst vorhanden, ansonsten gesunde Kost eher wenig. Leider ist das Hotel sehr in die Jahre gekommen, Teppichboden, teils abgenutzt und dreckig. Parkmöglichkeiten äußerst beschränkt (vier Plätze) und das Schlimmste am Wochenende ist, dass man hier nicht mit offenem oder gekippten Fenster schlafen kann. Es ist High Life bis 4:00 Uhr früh außen rum ums Hotel und lauter Krach durch feiernde junge Leute…

Families travelling with kids, look no further beyond this hotel. Location is top notch and super easy access to train, boat and bus. Lots of food options nearby ( starbucks downstairs at the lobby). Clean and very spacious family rooms. We were on the sixth floor and there is a bar/small snack area on the 7th which tends to create an oily smell sometimes esp during the night time (only con i can think of). I will gladly stay here again if need be. Simply fantastic!

The room was slightly bigger than a prison cell. There was fecal matter on the rim of the toilet. The shower was either hot or cold. It was difficult to get warm water. Worst part, no place to pull up a car to the hotel and check in. You had to find a parking garage and drag your bags to the hotel.

Property is very outdated, carpets in the room were so dirty, couldn’t take shoes off. You could ask for slippers at the front desk though. But the bedding and bathroom were clean. There was some event happening during our stay, so it was impossible to sleep at night. In the morning there was garbage all over around the property. I would not stay again.

This hotel has a major noise problem. Pulsating sound from a club in the building complex audible on the fourth floor until long after midnight. It's not their fault but that's not the customer's concern. Other issues: the wifi went down six times and failed to reconnect. Plus, check in time 4 pm and check out time 11 am? Come on, this isn't 2020.

We picked this hotel for its convenience to the train station and the included breakfast. It turned out to be so much more. The walkability to old town was perfect. Everything was so close. We opted for the Zimmerman suite to get extra room and it did not disappoint. Very clean and helpful staff as well. Our room was so quiet, we never heard a peep. We based our Switzerland travelog of Lucerne and stayed for 7 nights. Loved it!!

They arranged dinner reservations, gave us tea while we waited for the room to be ready, had apples for guests to take, and made us feel so welcome. Location is excellent! So easy to get around. Steps away from underground shopping, trains, boats, and beautiful scenery!

The room was very nice and the staff was extremely friendly. The location was however a double edged sword. The hotel was adjacent to the main train station in Lucerne. You could literally walk 20 meters to the escalator to the station and have access to all of the fast food stalls as well as the bakery’s and the Coop convenience store. The downside was that there is constant noise from the buses, trams, and pedestrians. The biggest negative for us was the loud partying outside the hotel on the weekend. Our stay was from Wednesday night through Sunday. We had room 614 (the highest floor). Friday night we were awaked off and on by yelling and partying. Saturday night however we were hardly able to sleep due to the constant loud voices that finally ended around 5:30am. As we left Sunday morning we literally drug our suitcases through a layer of trash and cigarette butts an inch deep outside of the Roadhouse bar next door to the hotel. We really liked the hotel on Wednesday and Thursday but we wished we had stayed somewhere else over the weekend. If we find ourselves in Lucerne again we would look for another hotel.
