Great hotel during the day. Dont stay the weekend

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.

The hotel is nice and the breakfast was pretty good. Also having ac in the room is a great plus during the summertime. Great location, it’s right next to the train station and the pier so you can go around places pretty easily.

We have always stayed at Monopol when we go to Lucerne. The proximity to the train and the lake is superb. The reception staff were very personable. Even though I always consider Lucerne hotels to be quite expensive, I got a same day deal that pleased me. And the AC during this heat wave was needed and excellent!

Unbeatable location next to Lucerne Station and Tourist Office.We had a Junior Suite (419) which was large but rather tired with many stains on the carpet and poorly lit - no ceiling lights and only 2 free standing lamps in seating and cupboards area. Newly refurbished bathroom with excellent lighting and good bath/shower together with 2 sinks. Pretty poor breakfast for CHF25 with consistently overcooked scramble eggs.
