This apartment is absolutely lovely. Neighborhood is quiet and just a quick drive to downtown Lucerne. It's also truly walkable (if you can do uphill!! 😅) and there is public transport. VRBO didn’t send me the correct check in details but the host responded to my message with everything I needed to know very quickly. If I ever find myself in this area again I'd book this place in a heartbeat.

Lovely place for a girl weekend
This is a lovely three bedroom flat nestled next to woods above Lucerne. Easy bus access (and free bus pass) make it very accessible but not bad to walk. Roomy. Well, if oddly, provisioned. Bed sqishy but not bad. Quiet neighbourhood. Only complaints are the difficult access to key safe in mailbox (could not read numbers even with flashlight), confusing trash/recycling instructions and answers to queries lost in translation. Otherwise, ideal

Great for a Group
This property worked out nicely for us. The building is unprepossessing - a concrete apartment building from the outside - but the inside was very nice: three bedrooms of a decent size, a very large communal room/dining room combined where our group of seven had plenty of space to gather and eat, and two bathrooms, each with shower. The laundry facilities and parking for our rental car were great assets as well. The kitchen is a small galley-style, but had everything we needed. Everything was clean and well taken care of. The flat is a bit of a walk from downtown, but the Luzern Guest Pass that is provided makes it easy to catch the regular buses to/from the location. Communication with the host was a bit of a problem, as she was out of town, but we eventually were able to make contact.

Very Nice Apartment
Everything in this apartment was nice. There were two large bathrooms, which was also really nice. The washer and dryer did not work well for us, but maybe we didn't know how to use it well-- haha. Everything here was clean and basic. It was a comfortable place to be.

Easy bus ride to the train station. We got unlimited Swiss rail passes for our stay and enjoyed travelling all over Switzerland during the day. This area seemed quieter than in the middle of the city.

Schöne Wohnung am Rand von Luzern in Waldesnähe
Wir wurden sehr freundlich von unserem Vermieter empfangen, der eine Menge Tipps für uns hatte. Der nahe Wald ist ein Abenteuer für Kinder und mit dem Bus 10 ist man schnell in der Stadt. Die Wohnung bietet alles, was man braucht, der Küchenbalkon lädt ein zum Z'Morge oder zum Nachtessen. Wir kommen wieder

Wunderbare Ferienwohnung am Stadtrand von Luzern
Wir haben unseren Urlaub in der schönen FeWo sehr genossen :-) Die Vermieter sind sehr freundlich und zuvorkommend und die Wohnung war sehr sauber und freundlich und praktisch eingerichtet. Alles was in der Beschreibung angegeben war, war auch vorhanden. Die Lage ist ebenfalls sehr gut. Sie ist ruhig und etwas außerhalb aber durch die öffentl. Busverbindung super angeschlossen. Wir haben die inkludierte Gästekarte zur Benutzung der Busse in Luzern oft genutzt. Wir werden sicher wieder kommen :-)

good value for a medium sized group
This review is from an American perspective. The apartment is on a hill above the city in a quiet neighborhood. The bus stops right next to the apartment. Our cheerful host saw our group and came down to greet us. Comfort with public transportation is a must unless you want to spend a fortune on taxis. But the transportation system in Switzerland runs like clockwork. And Google Maps integrates flawlessly. My kids left on the first 5:46 am bus with luggage for a 10 minute ride to the train station and caught the 6:00 am train. It really is that good. In a prior trip I stayed in a downtown hotel. Talk about road noise and crowded streets. The 10 min bus ride (free with Swiss pass, and the hosts will also provide a "City Pass" that grants free bus travel) to this quiet neighborhood is a good trade-off. When you have a pass, just board the bus through the middle doors. No need to interact with the driver. Only one time in our entire trip we were asked to show our pass to a control agent. The apartment is simple, clean and quiet. Laminate flooring. Internet, TV. Nice dining room with sufficiently stocked kitchen. Nice sitting area with 2 sofas. Two bathrooms, one with a shower, the other with a tub/shower combo. My group of adults all prefered the shower. Tub is short and more appropriate for children. There is a combo clothes washer/dryer. Compared to a separate units, it takes forever and the clothes are still damp after 3 hours. High efficiency appliances take longer. Also, it has a much smaller capacity than most US machines. I would hang my damp clothes on a drying rack. The beds are simple but comfortable. One room had a "queen"; the other rooms both had two beds. These beds were something between an American "single" and "double". This arrangement fit my group perfectly. I think the beds could be joined together if desired for a couple. There are two porches, one small and the other very small. The kitchen had a stove, refrigerator, dishwasher (and a fondue pot!). There is an expresso machine which uses coffee pods. There was a bowl with different styles. The ones that were aluminum worked, the ones that were plastic did not. I guess they were designed for a different machine. Halfway between the trainstation and the apartment is a street with multiple groceries. There are also grocery stores in the train station. This was a better deal than 3 hotel rooms!

Highly recommended place in Lucerne
We loved this house with all its homely touches! Lovely decorated and spotless clean. The bedding was very good. Absolutely quite and nice neighborhood, so great for sleeping. There is a 10 min ride with the direct bus No. 10 from Lucerne train station ( 6-7 min from old town) to the apartment. The frequency is also good, until 00.30 in the night. The host provides all guests with a free bus ticket for the whole period of stay. Highly recommended place for families!

Family Vacation
The apartment is about 15 minutes by bus from the train station. It stops right by the apartment and they run right on schedule. Very convenient and easy. There were 6 adults and we had plenty of room with three bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. Tanja met us at the apartment on our arrival and gave us all the information we needed about the apartment and gave us all free bus passes. I would definitely recommend this apartment to family’s or groups, wanting a relaxing quiet area.

Fantastic location. One minute walk to bus stop then access to any other place.
The beautiful forest and hills located by the apartment make a wonderful walk or run in the morning or afternoon. It’s away from the heart of the city but it’s accessible in just 7 stops by bus. Great place!

Walking distance down to the town and a lovely walk up the other way through the woods to the hills and mountain views. Spacious apartment in a quiet residential street. It was handy having the underground car park.

Great experience!
We spent a great time in this beautifully equipped apartment. It was great to have 2 bathrooms and two balconies. The apartment is 10 minutes away from the train station and city center but there is a very good bus connection that departs every ten minutes. The neighborhood is great, very quiet, clean and safe, the forest and the fields and a ventage point (belvedere) are just around the corner. We received from the host free bus pass for the whole period of stay. Highly recommended.
