Hotel in Lucerne

My husband and I will be in Lucerne for 2 days in September before heading back to Basel to start our Rhine River Cruise. Can you recommend a hotel that is reasonable price and in the middle of the action in Lucerne like Rick Steves' hotels usually are?

I have stayed in:
Hotel Ameron Flora
Ambassador Hotel (near the Lion Monument)
and Hotel de la Paix.
All are reasonably priced and clean, walkable to RR.

Be aware that local bus travel is free upon arrival. If the driver asks, show your hotel reservation. Buses are just outside the train station. Either your hotel or the Train Information office can tell you which bus and which stand.

When I stayed at the Des Alpes, they emailed me a QR code for the city buses 2 days before my arrival, not I needed it to walk across the bridge.

They gave us paper passes at the hotel when we checked in.
