Hotel Hammer was the best! Our private room and bath was clean, cute, and felt luxurious compared to other places we have stayed! The views were amazing. The staff is friendly and everything that was provided for us was either lovely or delicious. Highly recommend.

The staff were so friendly. They gave us great recommendations for our next stop on our trip as well as things to do around Lucerne. The breakfast was incredible and the staff was really attentive to help when we were confused. The property was very clean. The view was incredible. And its such a good property for such a low price, which really helped me on my first trip out of the country. Definitely recommend, the bus isn't too expensive to get to Lucerne from the place, just hop in the SBB app.

The most beautiful views from the room. This is an ideal place to stay that is close and easily accessible by bus and train to Lucerne. The staff was lovely and so helpful. The stay was comfortable. We booked a more basic suit but it was just what we needed as a safe and clean spot to stay. Very close to Mount Pilatus. Highly recommend

A cozy, clean and comfortable spot at an excellent location. The restaurant served gourmet food at reasonable prices featuring extraordinary views of the surrounding landscape. Excellent customer service starting with Manuel who was very helpful with planning local hikes. Highly recommended to anyone interested visiting the Lucerne/Pilatus area.

Beautiful Alpine Getaway
We were pleasantly surprised that Hammer was basically hotel for hikers and was located high up a narrow mountain road. We had a private bathroom and a wonderful view of the mountains. The staff were pleasant and helpful. I highly recommend this to anyone who loves the mountains
