A small, clean hotel in an excellent location overlooking Lake Lucerne with very friendly staff. We paid a premium to stay in a large, loft room and the bed was so uncomfortable and creaky that neither of us slept. They tried to remedy the situation but what was really needed was a whole new bed! We were also a little annoyed also to find that most people staying were part of an inclusive package whereby bed, breakfast and evening meal were included - and they were paying a special package price. Our bill for the 2 nights and one 3 course meal in the hotel’s restaurant (including a tip and the equivalent of a bottle of wine) cost over £1200. Too expensive for what we actually got.
Wanting a calm retreat ? Don’t stay here. Although the restaurant is really good, the soundproofing is not existing in the rooms. We had a room 3 floors above the restaurant and we were disturbed by the chairs of the restaurant sliding between 7 to 10 am and 6 to 10 pm. And that was in the room with a view on the lake. Also, the hotel is non-smoking, but they put ashtrays on the balcony. Unfortunately our room neighbors spent the evenings/nights smoking like chimneys, and that disgusting cigarette smoke was coming into our room through the balcony window. And on the other side of the hotel the road has some heavy trafic. Oh, the delivery truck at 5 am is noisy too. And the cleaning ladies were talking very loud (one shouted a big “Scheisse” which surprised/shocked me and another couple in the hallway). It’s a shame, because the rest of the staff is really really nice, but it’s not a hotel to rest.
This was a last minute booking for us and the price and location were really good before a day trip into Lucerne. Liked the location immediately, even in drizzling rain.We had a big balcony room overlooking the garden and lake.Very nice to arrive at after coming from Lake Maggiore and a long drive. The decor is fairly modern and it doesn't have charm as such but it was a quiet room with enough space. Buffet breakfast next morning was a bit of a highlight, especially since it was free and included! We never did get used to Swiss food prices during our trip. Easy to find and an easy drive into Lucerne next day.

My daughter and I stayed here for one night while travelling to Italy. It’s convenient and at the same time its position between the lake and mountains enabled us to get a taste of typical Swiss scenery.
The staff speak English and it appears the hotel has a lot of British guests from Leger Holidays. Our room was large but very utilitarian.
There was no kettle or fridge.
We enjoyed our dinner there and breakfast was good although some items were sparse as the coach guests had been through.
Our meal was expensive for what it was but we expected that.
The Seeblick Hohenhotel forced myself my group of 40 teenagers to sleep overnight in UNLOCKED rooms because they were so worried about not getting their keys back for an early checkout that they forced our entire group to turn in keys by 9 PM. I turned my key in and let them know my feedback and was told it was my tour directors fault for not providing some collateral beforehand and 'making new keys is expensive'. The doors do not lock without a key, not even from the inside. Hohenhotel, those details should have been worked out beforehand. That is not our tour directors fault that you panicked at the minute, and the solution to that issue is not forcing 40 foreign teenagers to sleep in unlocked hotel rooms with their persons, belongings and passports. I don't care how expensive your fancy keys are. Or maybe just invest in some keycard readers and join the rest of the 21st century so you don't have to deal with that cost anymore. Imagine sleeping at a hotel where you can't lock your own door. Absolutely unacceptable.
The scenery is invincible, the key price is also close to the people, the air is not good for tourists, and it is very comfortable. Ctrip has strong skills, and our basic needs are all solved in the APP. If you can't make a decision, ask the human service to solve it. It's awesome, thanks to the service of Ctrip.com.
Hotel: Kleines und gemütliches Hotel, freundlicher Service. Zimmer: sehr geräumig, sauber. Betten nur mittelmäßig bequem - die Kopfkissen etwas eigenartig. Leider keine Klimaanlage: Es war sehr warm. Fenster konnte man unbedingt öffnen, da die Kirchenglocke alles naselang läutete. Frühstück: geringe Auswahl (allerdings war das vielleicht auch nicht anders zu erwarten bei einem so kleinen Hotel). Restaurant: nicht jeden Tag geöffnet, kleine Karte, gutes Essen (es scheint eine Verbindung zur Pizzeria ”Schlüssel” in Ennetbürgen zu geben. Lage: angenehme Lage in einem kleinen Ort. Wir waren dort, um (mit dem Pkw) Ausflüge zu machen. Bis zum See sind es ca. 15 Minuten Gehweg. Fazit: Ich würde dort noch mal absteigen, aber nicht im Hochsommer!
This is a super hotel. The suite I booked is divided into two rooms, two bathrooms, and the two balconies are connected. I can sit outside and have a cup of coffee and take a nap. It is very comfortable. The hotel room has a separate washroom. The desk is very good. The hotel has a white style, the space is acceptable, and the overall feeling is very clean. Particularly commendable is the breakfast at this hotel, which has a wide variety and is of very good quality. The hotel has independent check-in, which is very convenient and the check-in is very fast. The hotel has a parking garage, which is very close and convenient. Parking is charged separately.
Very good hotel, winter is definitely not as perfect as summer, but I am already amazing, the pool water is hot, there are small hot springs, steaming ice room is complete, la prairie free trial after bath, breakfast You can order the Michelin plate, and the taste is quite good. I called to eat in the room at night, it was delicious! I also gave wine and helped decorate the room! Will come again if I have a chance
It's an amazing place to stay. It's one of my dream places for me and my family. There is a good, friendly welcome and a swimming pool with a very beautiful view. I like it very much. Even though the day I go to rest There will be a lot of fog but luckily there will be a time when the fog disappears. I like it and think Want to come and stay again in the summer of other years.
