Wunderschönes Hotel, angenehme Atmosphäre in allen Bereichen, hervorragendes Essen, privilegierte Lage an der Reuss und nahe der Altstadt, freundliche und zugewandte Mitarbeiter! Hier kann man sich einfach nur wohlfühlen! Da wir schon seit vielen Jahren kommen, ist uns alles vertraut und man fühlt sich ein Stück weit "wie zu Hause" (erfreulicherweise ohne die alltäglichen Verpflichtungen ????). Wir werden auf jeden Fall wiederkommen und freuen uns schon jetzt darauf!

This hotel is beyond words, from the moment you enter. The desk staff was so friendly and helpful. Location on the water was beautiful with gorgeous views of the mountains. The small balcony was a great addition, we didn’t use it due to the weather. Location to the Christmas markets was super. Short walk to the train station was a real perk. Many local bakeries and restaurants in close proximity was fantastic. Stocked mini bar was great with reasonable pricing.

The biggest negativr was that our room has a step that is not marked on the floor. The carpet blends making the step not visible. There is a sign on door but first time out we had coat hanging over sign. I fell off the step twisting my left ankle snd banging up my right knee. I was in pain and had a difficult time getting around town for our stay. (Thankful it wasn’t worse)

Mitten in der Altstadt von Luzern direkt an der Reuss gelegenes Hotel in historischem Gebäude = top Lage. Sehr freundlicher Service und dog friendly (mit unseren zwei grossen Rhodesian Ridgeback Hunden in einem Hotel wirklich Willkommen zu sein, das ist nicht selbstverständlich - chapeau ans Des Balances Team). Das Dinner, Drinks an der Bar & Breakfast war alles tip topp. Wir waren schon mehrmals im Des Balances - rundum happy :-) - wir kommen gerne wieder!

Das Frühstück war wunderbar!

Wir fragten die Bedienung ob sie einen Weinvorschlag hätte und sie nannte einen Wein den sie offen hatte. Dann bestellten wir aber einen Wein der uns gefiel und wir kannten. Leider wurde uns nicht gesagt, dass es zu unserem Gourmet Menu, zu jedem Gang eine Weinbegleitung gibt. Das haben wir erst am nächsten Tag auf dem Menu gesehen welches im Schaukasten in der Gasse draussen hängt. Das hat uns sehr enttäuscht. Auch fragte ich persönlich ob ich statt dem Rinderfilet Gang auch was anderes haben könnte, da hiess es nur ein Kalbssteak. Von etwas Vegetarischem war nicht die Rede. Heute wird auch in gehobenen Lokalitäten nach Allergien gefragt - das war auch nicht der Fall. Da braucht es etwas mehr Aufmerksamkeit und Schulung vom Personal.

Our experience with Hotel Des Balances was excellent! We greatly enjoyed our room and location within Luzern. We had easy access to everywhere in the city and very much enjoyed using the transportation pass! The room/beds were extremely comfortable and the staff was friendly. The bar was excellent and the one day we had breakfast, we were quite impressed with the spread and options to order.

The view is outstanding but the room is just a standard room, on the old and tired side. The bed was comfortable but the pillows need to be replaced. The bathroom would be more useful if there were shelves on either side of the mirror as the shelf under the sink is not so practical.
