Chateau Guetsch

The Chateau was beautiful inside and out! We had a room on the second floor with sweeping views of the city and the lake, from both our front window and a small balcony on the lake-side of the building. The views were unbelievable! We had breakfast on the Terrance the next morning, with the same beautiful views! The funicular was not working due to a thunderstorm the day before we arrived, so we were bummed about not being able to access the property with that, but there was a shuttle van from the hotel that transported us both directions as needed, which was nice. The drivers of the shuttle were very friendly and helpful, as were all the staff at the hotel. It was one of the best hotels we’ve ever stayed at! Get a room with a view! It’ll be worth it!

We had a nice stay at Château Gütsch. The highlight of the hotel is undoubtedly the spectacular view from the terrace, which overlooks Lucerne, the lake and the surrounding mountains. It’s the main reason to stay here and it’s truly breathtaking, especially in the evening. Our room was comfortable, and the air conditioning worked perfectly, which was much appreciated during the hot weather. The breakfast was also very good, with a nice selection. One of the hotel’s biggest advantages is its location. Although it sits on top of the hill, getting to the city centre is incredibly easy thanks to the private Gütsch funicular, which takes you down to the centre in just a couple of minutes. The only aspect of our stay which could be better was dinner at the hotel restaurant. While the setting and views are beautiful, the food itself was fairly average and didn’t quite match the standard we expected from a hotel of this calibre. If you’re looking for a hotel with unforgettable panoramic views, and easy access to the city, Château Gütsch is an excellent choice.

Very friendly staff. The rooms were clean and well taken care of. Our own controllable A/C unit was in the room! Great views of the town. The funicular makes getting down to town quick and easy. Large Parking area. Me and my wife both agree that Château Gütsch is a must stay when visiting Luzern, and a room with a city view is well worth the extra cost.

The location was excellent as it was very easy to access the old town, yet it was away from the crowds and noise when you wanted to retreat to your room or the hotel lounge to relax. Staff were very helpful and room was a good size with a fantastic view. Very much enjoyed my stay and would stay here anytime I come back to Lucerne.
