Any suggestions for a 4 or 5 star hotel in Lucerne? Looking for good value, good location, etc.
I've never noticed how many "stars" it had, but one hotel you might consider is Hotel Stern. The rooms are very comfortable, they serve a nice breakfast, and it's an easy walk (10-15 minutes) to the station or the river.
The big, pretty hotel right in the middle of historic Luzern is Hotel Schweizerhof.

I have never stayed here, but people with Ferraris and RRs seem to like it ;)
