Guest Reviews
- Martin (9/5): Wir waren rundum zufrieden. - Das Vogelgezwitscher zur Begrüssung
- Silvan (5/5): - Unglaublich schlechtes Gym, keine Klimaanlage
- Kaspar (9/5): Sehr schönes Hotel mit tollem Personal! - Sehr schönes Ambiente, alle Mitarbeiter waren sehr freundlich. Das Hotel ist modern, sehr sauber, direkt beim Bahnhof gelegen. Die Aussenparkplätze befinden sich direkt vor dem Eingang. Gegen eine Gebühr konnte problemlos ein early Check-in sowie ein late Check-out gebucht werden. Wir kommen wieder! Nichts!

- Patricia (8/5): Joli hôtel moderne proche du magnifique lac de Sempach - Très grande chambre. Beau balcon. Salon. Bon buffet petit-déjeuner La circulation des trains est quand même assez bruyante et la nuit, les trains qui passent à grande vitesse m’ont réveillée. Si j’y retourne, je demanderai une chambre à l’opposé de la gare.

- Karin (8/5): -
- Mathieu (10/5): Extraordinaire - Le lit, la propreté, le petit-déjeuner exceptionnel, le personnel et particulièrement la gentille dame qui était présente lors du petit-déjeuner. Le train qui passe toutes les 30 min environ est assez bruyant, surtout quand on aère.
- Friedrich (6/5): -
- Bianca (10/5): -
- Sylvia (8/5): - Schönes Zimmer, sehr modern Kaffeemaschine war nicht wie beschrieben im Zimmer.
- Jeanine (8/5): - In general comfortable for business purposes. Walls between rooms are not well insulated:
- Pia (8/5): -
- Diana (9/5): -
- Kerstin (5/5): - Gute Verkehrsanbindung Die Zimmer waren nicht mehr in ganz gutem Zustand, die Vorhänge defekt und der Betthimmel verkratzt, das bin ich von Schweizer Hotels anders gewohnt . Das Hotel liegt direkt am Bahngleis, das muss man wissen da man nicht mit offenem Fenster schlafen kann.
- Jutta (10/5): -
- Markus (7/5): Stylisches Businesshotel und gut als stop over auf dem Weg in den Süden - Modernes und stylisches Hotel. Badezimmer mit Glastüren sind gewöhnungsbedürftig.
- Adina (8/5): -
- Patrick (8/5): - Hatt alles gepasst. Super Lage und top Frühstück. Das Zimmer hat nach Rauch gerochen. Sehr unangenehm.
Die Rezeption hat mir versichert das Problem zu beheben.
- Eliza (8/5): genialna lokalizacja - Hotel jest genialnie usytuowany, schodzi się z peronu kolejki i wchodzi do hotelu (to jednak powoduje, że w pokojach nawet przy zamkniętych oknach) bywa trochę głośno, bo jeżdżą również szybkie pociągi, które nie zatrzymują się na stacji. Dojazd do Lucerny bardzo dogodny, ok. 20 minut w zależności od rodzaju pociągu. Pokój jest dość przestronny, czysty, z ładnym balkonem. Łazienka jest oddzielona od pokoju tylko mleczną szybą i przesuwnymi drzwiami. Łazienka nie ma półeczki ani wieszaków na ręczniki, co nie jest zbyt komfortowe przy dłuższym pobycie. Bardzo miły personel recepcji. Dobre śniadania.
- Vigdis Irene (10/5): - Ble veldig godt mottatt av en hyggelig ansatt. Også da vi sjekket ut.
Alt var helt perfekt
- Harjit (8/5): - Very friendly and helpful staff. Reasonable breakfast but no hot food. The hotel is clean, comfortable and in good condition, though the bed base bit worn out. Overall would recommend this hotel which is 18 minutes away in the train from Lucern. Conveniently next to the train station.
Good location to travel to various places of interest.
- Farid (10/5): - Very grateful to amazing Team of gorgeous property!
It is really beautiful from all points of view.
Special gratitude to fantastic Ivonne, Jan and Jorge !
👏🙏😇
- Ines Köln (8/5): -
- Matthias (10/5): -
- Ricarda Charlotte (8/5): Wir waren auf der Durchreise und würde dafür wiederkommen - Schönes Zimmer. Alles sauber, angenehme Atmosphäre. Wir haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt.
Das Frühstück war super! Und auch die Getränke an der Bar gut (auch alkoholfreie Varianten möglich und lecker)
Und das Personal sowohl morgens als auch abends sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit. Das Laufband im Fitnessraum ist so laut, dass man es nur von 9-19 Uhr benutzen darf, das stand so vorher nirgends und wir hätten es bei Ankunft gerne noch verwendet.
Auch die auf de Website angegebenen Pinsa als Snack / kleines Abendessen gab es (gerade) nicht.
Die Reisegruppe die um 6 Uhr morgens sehr laut im Flur war. Aber dafür kann das Hotel nichts und es kommt hoffentlich nicht regelmäßig vor.
- Margarida (9/5): -
- Denisse (10/5): - really nice and clean place!
- Françoise (9/5): Bon compromis pour visiter Lucerne et ses environs en prenant le train juste en face . Accueil fabuleux et propreté irré - Petit dej très bien
Propreté et confort des chambres Dommage qu’il n’y ait pas de frigo et de clim , mais un ventilateur très peu bruyant était à disposition
Dommage aussi que le parking ne soit pas compris dans le prix
- Melanie (10/5): - Incroyable 😍 parfait je recommande à tous
- Karsten (10/5): -
- TOSHIHIKO (8/5): - ともかく駅の目の前になるので迷うことなく便利。郊外型のビジネス主体の?ホテルなので、観光地からは少し距離がありますが、静かで落ち着けます。値段も少し安価で泊まれるのではないでしょうか?
- Jan (8/5): Dit prima hotel verdient betere laadinfrastructuur. - Allemaal dik in orde. Beetje saaie buurt. Op verplaatsing gegaan voor het avondeten.
Laadpaal (Tesla ? ) werkte niet, onmogelijk te connecteren. Jammer dat zo'n hotel niet doorheeft hoe belangrijk overnight (goedkope) laadpalen zijn voor de EV-reiziger. Het is ons nr.1-keuzefilter. Als die dan niet werken, kan men een herhalingsbezoek vergeten en onze online reacties gaan de EV-community rond.
- Baisong (8/5): -
- Matthias (10/5): -
- Wolfgang (8/5): - Keine Kaffemaschine auf dem Zimmer wie angekündigt. Sollte angepasst werden, dann nehme ich wie üblich meine eigene mit!!
- Harry (10/5): - Alles PERFEKT 👌🏻
- andré (9/5): - Sehr gutes Frühstück! Kein bodymilk im Bad
- Peter (9/5): A good place to stay but a little remote. - Modern spacious and quiet No AC only a fan
- Dennis (7/5): Heerlijk bed! - De bedden lagen werkelijk fantastisch. Dus we hebben goed geslapen. De barman zorgde voor een heel sfeervolle en gezellige avond op het terras. Het ontbijt was goed met Vera brood, croissants, fruit, beleg en hele goede koffie. Het lag niet direct aan het hotel zelf maar door de hitte sliepen de meeste gasten met hun balkondeuren open. Wij ook. Daardoor werden we om 5:30 in de ochtend verstoord door de föhn van de buren die een half uur lang met een hoog en irritant geluid heeft geblazen. Dat was wel jammer.
- Claes (9/5): -
- Verified traveler (6/5): - Okay for one night. Quite pricey. There was no air conditioning in the room unfortunately (although we knew about it beforehand), but thankfully there was a fan. Plenty of choices at breakfast.
- Federico (8/5): Very good -
- Alexandra (8/5): - The check-in process was smooth and hassle-free. The staff member who welcomed us was exceptionally friendly and professional, creating a warm and inviting first impression.
We stayed in room 209, which was perfect for our family of four. The room was spacious, clean, and well-maintained, providing plenty of space for everyone to feel comfortable. Large windows filled the room with natural light, enhancing the open and airy feel.
The view from our room was truly breathtaking. Overlooking the mountains, it offered a serene and picturesque backdrop that made our stay even more memorable.
- Massimiliano (3/5): Pleasant but not a 4 star. - Nice staff It is not definitely a 4 star hotel, with the service received.
The rooms are poor in quality and worn, the lights in the hotel were all flickering including the emergency exits.
The gym machinery broke on me hurting my foot meanwhile I was using it, with photos to prove it.
We paid £190 to stay there. I definitely would ask for a partial refund.
- Vahid (8/5): - We had a great time staying at AVA hotel and our room which was a junior suite had plenty of space and Yvonne was wonderful and very helpful. The only things that we recommend to add are first and foremost air conditioning which is lacking in most properties in Switzerland and as the temperatures are constantly getting warmer it is becoming a necessity and not a luxury. Secondly it would be great to have the option of having a small refrigerator in the rooms. We bought a lot of great Swiss chocolate and fortunately Yvonne accommodated us by keeping them in the main refrigerator to keep them from melting.
- JAIME GERMAN ESPINOSA (10/5): - Su personal agradable y un excelente servicio, las habitaciones de buen tamaño y limpias!
Ambiente muy tranquilo y silencioso
- Rioza (10/5): Exceptional -
- Pascal (9/5): Superb -
- JOSEPHCHAI28 (4/5): AVA hotel Sempach - Hotel with wierd restrictions - Stayed in this hotel 2nights from 3-05Apr25.
Nice large rooms with balcony. friendly staff especial Georgos..
Hotel is located near lake Sempach beside train station. No many options outside hotel.
Negative - Hotel has many restrictions for groups (not aure if it applies to individual or family) - no eating in rooms - no cooking, not even to boil water for instant noodles. No smoking in room (Understandable) no smoking even at the balcony - (wierd) whats balcony for??
Hotel rooms has coffee machine - but no coffee capsule nor tea sachets. Hotel mgr explains that - guest tends to spoil the machine. This is the most ridiculous reason. Explanation; not accepted.
In such situation, prrhaps - it only common sense - not to provide coffee machine in rooms
- Robert (10/5): Empfehlenswert - Unkompliziertes Check-In. Sehr freundlicher Empfang. Zweckmässige saubere Zimmer.
- Daniel (10/5): Exceptional -
- Pierre (8/5): Very good -
- Amir (9/5): Great boutique hotel in a small town close to Luzern to stay for business or family vacation - Everything was good as expected in regards to check in, the room, ... The room was well-decorated, having a very nice balcony. The staff made whatever they could to help us having a great stay.
The breakfast was very basic, but with great fresh Swiss ingredients. For me, the only negative point was the bedding; both the pillow and the mattress were not comfortable, and I could not have a good sleep.
- Jen (10/5): Exceptional -
- Daniel (8/5): Very good - Cleanliness, breakfast. Have to pay for the parking.
- Robert (10/5): Lovely suite with soaker tub, friendly staff - Location, friendly staff, nice room with big bathtub Bathroom door is clear partway down and doesn’t close so that you have much privacy.
- Serkan (10/5): - Gutes Frühstück, große schöne Zimmer, gute Anbindung
- Nebi (4/5): Disappointing - Parking was fairly easy. You are getting very low comfort compared to what you paid. Very poor breakfast, uncomfortable old beds, small rooms.
- Minda (10/5): - The room and bathroom were large with comfortable bed. Thankfully they provided a fan…it was hot!
- Andreas (8/5): Very good -
- Bensy (10/5): Exceptional - Clean Noise
- Gary (8/5): Very good -
- Aleksandra (7/5): Good - New, modern hotel with parking, very friendly and helpful staff. The rooms are quite big and clean, there is a balcony (but you have no privacy because of the glass separation).
The breakfast is ok
Despite some negatives I liked this place The bathroom is glazed and has only one door that you move or to the toilet or to the shower. From the shower you go directly to the room.
The location - literally close to the train station, a little bit noisy, on the other hand very easy to go to Lucerna by train.
NO fridge - I don't understand why
NO AC
- Anas (9/5): Superb - Cleanness, Balcony, room size and amazing staff No Air-conditioning in the room
- Florian (8/5): Comfortable, but hot stay - not ideal for hot summer days - Spacious, quiet room with quality furniture. Good bedding, functional bathroom. Friendly staff, overall OK breakfast. Great Design overall, hotel is apparently 10 years old but everything looks like new. No infection protection/ moskito screens for windows/ dior (like, e.g., at Hotel Sempachersee), and no fan: in rooms without AC, and hot days does not allow leaving window open at night, and cool with a fan - in an area near the lake with lots of insects
- Sf1971 (8/5): Very good - Nice room design Very warm in the room
Door did only open after several attempts
- Matteo (8/5): Great and simple stay! Good ration value/price. - The hotel is next to the train station of Sempach. Really practical. Only 15’ away of Luzern center by car/ train.
Well decorated and the staff is kind.
It is simple and it works!
Good ration value/price. -
- Thomas (10/5): - .
- Tom (10/5): Exceptional -
- Susanne (8/5): - Das Fenster liess sich nich kippen, es war kaputt. Für die 3 Nächte war es aber ein sehr guter Aufenthalt! Sauber, freundliches Personal
- Jaffar (7/5): Good - Great location, new and clean rooms Bad wifi connection, no separated door for shower, bath room and bad ventilation in the bathroom
- Lauren (10/5): Great stay - Great stay, staff were really lovely and friendly. Sempach only a 5 minute drive or bus up the road.
- Nora (10/5): - I thoroughly enjoyed my stay, from check-in all the way to a lovely breakfast just before check-out. Such an incredibly cosy, lovely and clean place. Truly amazing views and especially love the 'bird' theme; goes so well with the setting and beauty of Switzerland. Thank you so much!
- Rik (9/5): Friendly staff, nice place - the possibility to check in late, parking space at the door, great breakfast the price, compared to the other hotels we stayed in that weekend
the fact we couldn't charge there, while I searched hotels with charging in the booking app.
last minute we got a mail that only tesla's could charge
- Damiano (10/5): - Best option at 3 steps from train station and Sempach center
- Siduo (8/5): Very good - Great, modern, clean The bathroom design is a bit awkward. Apart from couples, others sharing a room would feel rather embarrassing at times.
- Zoran (10/5): Exceptional -
- Ekaterina (8/5): Very good -
- John (7/5): Good - The room, Breakfast and bathroom are clean and meet the expectations of the price. Corridor ambiance and has a stale and musty smell.
- Andrzej (10/5): highly recommend this hotel - staff at the hotel and the property itself not applicable
- Jason (10/5): Exceptional -
- Шеховцова (10/5): Exceptional - Stuff is brilliant. View is stunning. Room is great! We hope to come back! 3 days is not enough for a such good place )

Breakfast was excellent, one of the best we had.

- Emilee (10/5): Awesome! - New, great location, amazing staff! Nothing, the aircon was being placed in this week.
- Esther (8/5): Very good - Missing airconditioning, as the room was very hot in early June.
Also no Minibar. Would have been very good in the heat.
- Hirscher (9/5): Superb -
- Riccardo (9/5): Superb -
