Exceptional experience in exceptional place.

I really appreciated the whole establishments. Personel very friendly and professional, food amazing including scrumptious breakfast. Of course the spa is outstanding with an exceptional view on the lake. Asian kitchen is amazing and even cinema in the hotel. Definitely will be back.

Nothing.

Great views and place,

Breakfast and the location were great. The staff in the Verdana restaurant (the two women, supergreat)!

Many issues during our stay: After a long journey, we arrived at the hotel only to be told that our child was not allowed in the room we had originally booked — despite the fact that we had requested a baby bed in advance and the hotel had confirmed it would be no problem. We were forced to upgrade the room. We had been told this would cost €50, which we were fine with, but upon arrival the upgrade was suddenly €300 — with no option to cancel the reservation. We agreed to the expensive upgrade and asked if the spa was included. We were told yes — great! But once we got there, we were informed that children are only allowed in the spa between 17:00–18:00 (just one hour). We adjusted our schedule and made it, though a bit late, as we had to wait for confirmation from housekeeping. After swimming, we wanted to warm up in the sauna, but the children were not allowed in. Seriously? Despite having requested the baby bed in advance and mentioning our upgrade, we still had to ask for the bed again from reception — not very organized. In the room, the glasses had lipstick marks from a previous guest, and there were some small silverfish. At that point, I didn’t feel like contacting housekeeping again, even though they had been very kind and helpful earlier. Before our stay, we filled out the hotel's pre-arrival form, including details about our preferences and mentioned that we were coming to celebrate a special birthday (a milestone one). None of these details were acknowledged — not the baby bed, not the birthday. At breakfast, we even saw another table receive a cake with candles, which looked lovely and memorable — it just made our experience feel even more overlooked.

Great room, inconvenient & slow check-in

Great comfortable and charming rooms

Slow and inconvenient check-in process in a distant building; breakfast served in a separate distant building.

Do not forget to call the hotel before you arrive for every detail !!

The property and the rooms were ok.

I recently stayed at the Bürgenstock Hotel, a place I had dreamed of visiting for years. The hotel is undeniably luxurious and located in a truly special spot with breathtaking views of the lake. However, our stay on June 4th was deeply disappointing due to a private event that took over most of the hotel. Many areas of the hotel, including the main lobby – which I consider the heart of any hotel – were completely closed off to regular guests. We were not even allowed to have a simple drink at the lobby bar in the evening. Out of the 8 restaurants in the hotel, 6 were either closed or fully booked due to the event. We were forced to eat at a restaurant called “Taverne,” with a very limited and uninspiring menu. All the main areas with the iconic lake views were reserved exclusively for the private organization. Even the main breakfast hall in the main building was unavailable to us. It felt as if we were not truly guests at the hotel, but merely sidelined bystanders. Had we been informed in advance about such a major event, we would never have made this booking — especially considering the significant budget we allocated for what was meant to be a once-in-a-lifetime stay. Sadly, my wife and I could not experience any of the beautiful spots we had dreamed of from photos. I truly hope the hotel management will consider inviting us back to make up for this deeply disappointing experience. For anyone considering a stay here: Please call the hotel directly before booking and make sure no private events will interfere with your stay. I’m incredibly disappointed. 🥲

Excellent complex but unfortunately lack of management

The view was excellent.

All the facilities were closed because of a private event. Even the hotel lobby was closed which i never seen this before. Two bodyguards were standing front of the lobby! Rejecting hotel guests. All the restaurants were closed. The hotel located top of the mountain so there were no choice. They should inform us during the reservation.

Einfachste Unterkunft auf dem Bürgenstock, inkl. Aussichtsterrasse auf den Viewaldstättersee

Ich war nur 1 Nacht dort. Habe aber die super Aussichtsterrasse mit Sonnen-Untergang und -Aufgang genossen. Der Hammetschwandlift ist in der Nähe und gut zu Fuss erreichbar. Ich habe das Hotel auf meinem Wanderweekend genutzt. Dieses Ressort müsste jeder "Schweizer/inn" kennen lernen. Bei schönem Wetter, mit Sicht auf Luzern und den Vierwaldstättersee einfach SUPER.

4.0 / 10.0

Beeindruckende Architektur des Hotels, leider ohne Seele.

Das Frühstück war gut, die Atmosphäre allerdings wie in einem Hilton Business Hotel.

Der Empfang war unfreundlich. Es wurde uns ein Tisch im Restaurant angeboten um 18:20 für 18:30 den wir um 20:00 räumen müssten.. Wir hatten folglich keine Zeit uns umzuziehen. Beim Gepäck war man uns nicht behilflich.

4.0 / 10.0

Überteuert für eine so einfache Unterbringung.

Die gesamte Anlage ist wirklich wunderschön. Exzellentes Frühstück im Waldhotel.

Das einchecken in einem anderen Hotel ist recht umständlich. Das Zimmer war winzig klein und hatte überhaupt keine Belüftung. Obwohl wir keine hohen Temperaturen hatten, war es extrem stickig im Zimmer, da die Fenster nicht geöffnet werden durften.

9.0 / 10.0

site incroyable avec une vue à couper le souffle

Réservation faite à la taverne mais hébergement au Waldhotel. La chambre est immense et très fonctionnelle, la vue montagne est fabuleuse (quand la météo est favorable). Le personnel très disponible et professionnel. Le funiculaire et le bateau pour aller à Lucerne, le top.

La clientèle dans les différents hôtels du site BURGENSTOCK est très haut de gamme et n'a pas les mêmes codes que monsieur tout le monde
