The property is strategically located by the river with a really good view. And just a 7-8 minute walk from the train station. The room was small but space was maximized and we didn’t feel cramped at all. There was even a balcony that we enjoyed looking out from both in the early morning and at night. Everything was great! It was nice that they have an elevator as we had 2 big luggages each as we came for a 3 week vacation between Switzerland and Morocco which have 2 different climate. It was our first time in Switzerland and the lady who received us seemed easily irritated. My friend had a lot of questions and the pub was busy, so I get it. But overall, it was a good experience. I will still recommend this
Nothing really except the easily irritated lady at the reception. But as I said the pub was busy and we had a lot of question being first timers in Luzern. We were supposed to get a discount coupon for Starbucks since they do not serve breakfast but never got it.

The Hotel Mr. Pickwick has a fantastic location, barely 5 minutes from the train station and only a few steps from the Charles Bridge. My room was small but efficiently laid out. There were plenty of shelves and electrical outlets. The provided fan proved to be quite valuable, as there is no room AC and it was hot while I was in Lucerne. The bathroom/shower were small but had everything you need (though some more shelves would be helpful!). Large bottles of shampoo/body wash are environmentally friendly. My room was directly above the hotel's Pub-I sort of enjoyed the background noise when I had the windows open. The Pub was a fun place to have dinner. Everything was within easy walking distance! The staff is friendly and helpful.
Even though the room had an outdoor balcony and potentially a killer view, I wasn't able to figure out how to raise the metal shutters (not sure if they were supposed to be raised!) There is also a sign in the room warning you to either keep the lights off when the windows are open or keep the windows closed and have the lights on. Apparently, mosquitoes are a problem since the windows have no screens (seems like the obvious solution!). Because of this the room seemed a bit dark and warm (I kept the fan on all the time when I was in the room). The TV location was a bit awkward placed directly above the work table. The other thing which is a bummer, is they do not offer breakfast service in the Pub. This meant eating off site each day; kind of a pain.

Location Location Location!! The rooms are very tiny. We knew that when booking but I will say they are very efficient and well appointed for the small space. The shower was awesome and beds comfortable enough for a few nights stay but maybe not much longer. We were aware there was no A/C and it was quite warm a couple of nights even with the provided fans but doable for Sept. You do get some noise and smoke from the pub below but not as much as we anticipated. Earplugs. The balcony view was worth the inconvenience. Simple, efficient with a great location. Great staff and very accommodating.
All shared above.

AMAZING ! 5 min walk to train station /bus station, has Coop supermarket there at station as well , cannot describe the view from my balcony, nothing like I have ever experienced....stunning , central to everything, room service lady was lovely , reception great to deal with. People need to remember this is an old building and it won't have everything you need , if you are this way inclined then bring it with you or stay at home . Location and view 10/10 overrides everything. Go and climb one of the fortress towers , costs nothing and get to see the whole city of Lucerne 🥰
Loved everything thank you

The location and views are fantastic (central to everything, overlooking the river and the famous Chapel Bridge). Everything is an easy walk away; there are plenty of restaurants and stores a stone's throw away. Lucerne is a beautiful town, and this is a great place to use as a base for exploring it. The staff is very friendly and helpful.
There's very little to complain about. It can get a bit noisy in the evenings if you open your windows, since you are in the middle of the touristy area. And the building can get a bit creaky since it's so old, but that's part of the charm, too.

This hotel certainly lives up to it's name! We chose to visit Luzern largely because of it's Medieval Bridge and Squares. From our room we had the most incredible view of Europe's oldest covered bridge! We couldn't get enough of that view and had a hard time leaving our balcony. The location is right where you want to be with many restaurants, shops, museums, lake and the city wall with it's towers all within walking distance. The hotel is also a 10 min walk from the train/bus station. If you want a taste of an English pub just go downstairs and get your fill of pub grub and a multitude of ales. We highly recommend this hotel and would return.
The room is small for US standards and some may not like the bed alignment. We think the trade off for the view and location more than made up for the size of the room. We spent all our time on the balcony anyway.

Location is everything. This hotel couldn't be in a better location. Very easy walk from the railway station, the heart of the city, amazing views of the famous bridge, lakes and mountains. The pub downstairs (also the entrance to the hotel) was very nice and had a fun crowd. The sound didn't carry up to our rooms, but we were on an upper floor, so I don't know about the lower floors. The street is a buzz of activity at night, but again if you keep the balcony doors shut, you don't hear a thing. There's also a lovely farmers market in the morning on the weekend right in front of the hotel
The rooms are a tad small, but I guess it is expected for the price and location. We didn't spend too much time in the room, so it was not a problem for us. Everything else was great

Beautiful view right on the river Reuss , right opposite Chapel Bridge and very central to old town . Also proximity to train station and various transport links very useful Recently renovated bedrooms and fantastically clean bathroom with efficient vent ! Added bonus was fridge for storing refreshing drinks .
Minor complaint was not enough fans for ventilation as gets very hot in sumner months and unable to keep doors open at night due to insects from river . The window insect screen was useful !

All went well, we choose the property for its location, and we knew the room was very small. The room was efficiently furnished, and coffee, tea etc, was available, everything was very clean and worked. The view was absolutely stunningly beautiful. Despite its inherent space limitations, staying there was worth the experience.
Given the location, building limitations and that the hotel was run out of a pub, everything was done well and worked, but the place missed a lobby and entrance, something that I value.

Modern clean room with amazing view. Perfect location and easy walk from the railway station. Located central to all the tourist hotspots. There was some noise from the pub but not enough I couldn't sleep through it. For the location you aren't going to be able to avoid it.
Check in is a tiny bar at the rear of the pub. This means you are fighting through crowds of Irish and English drinkers to a reception that is not obvious. You can't get a car or taxi to within about 100m so older people or those with lots of bags may struggle a little.
