Hotels Near Königreichsaal Zeugen Jehovas in Kriens

I was really excited to start travelling after 2 years hiatus. I chose Switzerland as I had already made plans for the a 3 weeks trip in May 2020. I had to cancel it due to the COVID-19 pandemic. I picked Alpina Hotel in Luzerne due to its great loation and affordability. It is near many eateries and other attractions. I booked 2 rooms; 338 and 339. We get to enjoy the street view and marvelled at the beautiful building opposite our rooms. I noticed that the opposite building was built in 1537 [ need to confirm this ]. The street was generally quiet except in the mornings when rubbish trucks cleared did their cleaning. The room has simple layout and mine has 2 sinks in the living area. The bed and pillows area are comfortable. The bathroom is small but all items worked well. I did not see any staff at Alpina as most of them were based at the nearby sister hotel, The Monopol, which is located about 20m away. Checking in was fast and easy and it was done at Monopol. I was grateful for all the guidance and assistance provided by the receptionist. Alpina hotel is located about 110m away from Luzerne Train Station and it was relatively easy to find. My room ; 339 is bigger than 338. All in all, I had a really great experience staying in this hotel.

The location is perfect, you can even go back to your room to rest after taking the cable car from the University of Zurich (right next to the drop-off point). After entering the hotel, there is a small staircase to the counter. If you have large luggage, you need to carry it a short distance. There is no hot water kettle in the room, but fortunately I brought it myself. The bed is comfortable and the bathroom is clean. It is easy to get the toilet paper next to you wet when you shower in the rain, so you have to pay attention to it. I like the atmosphere of breakfast, the food is delicious and the staff is friendly☺️

We enjoyed our stay at Hotel de la Paix. The room was comfortable but rather small. The staff were helpful. No tea/coffee in the room and no machine in public area. (I know it is not so common in Switzerland, but why not, when even the cheapest UK hotel can do it?)

First, the location is beautiful. The hotel is clean and tidy, and the staff very friendly. It's a wonderful place to stay. We used this location as a base to explore the region. It's very quiet and there's not much traffic on the roads at any time (except around Zurich in rush hour). You do need a car here as there's nothing to do in the area. They'll charge you 20 Francs a night for parking. As we stayed for 7 nights they charged a max free of 100 Francs. Not too bad I suppose. The downside is the bedroom. The lighting is dreadful. There's also no air con. They did supply a fan to blow the air around which did help a bit. There's a sensor in the bathroom that detects movement and comes on. The decorative shelving had more light than the rest of the bathroom. Perhaps 3 candles would have been better. The shower has plenty of power and hot water but as it's placed over the bath it hardly keeps the water in. It's a job to stop soaking the floor. The lighting in the main room is dreadful too. We didn't have a lake view which was our choice but we didn't expect to be in full view of other residents either. There was a blind that you could use to add screening and shelter from the sun, but it seemed to have a mind of its own. Sometimes it wouldn't go down, other times it would but then go up again without warning.

Very clean hotel, fantastic service at the counter. Easy access via bus (just 3 stops from Stans), and bus stop is right outside the hotel. There is a fuel station just outside the hotel so it was convenient to get breakfast and other snacks. Toilet lights are motion sensor which is good for energy saving, but it auto turns off while we are in the shower as the timer might be too short. No fridge in hotel room though, but be slightly inconvenient for families with young children that need to store milk.

We arrived on the 20th of June - a family member also traveling with us booked this for us. The „not so friendly Lady on the reception did. her job - but nothing more than that - no smile no friendly word - she did nothing more than register and hand out the keys - like a robot. We had a room on the 2nd floor - while 30 degree Celsius outside, the hallway in the second floor probably had 35 in the room, I would guess, we had at least around 32 degree. Right away my wife went and organized a radiator (the „robot“ said that these should have been in the rooms already… no they weren‘t. When it cools down at 9:30 we tried to open the window - a sticker said: be careful…children… might be opened completely - no, they‘re not - went down again to the reception - nobody there - „robot“ probably went for inspection. „But when you call 930 we are right there for you!“ Did that right away - nobody picked up the phone - until the occupied tone appeared. Another try from the room‘s phone - same result, another try 5 minutes later same result. We had a though to sleep in the A/C Car but you can’t even use the room for charging your digital equipment - when you leave with the key, power is cut. When you’re leave without the key, no service desk available to let you back in after 9:00pm. We also payed a visit to the nearby restaurant. Not recommended to eat there - they open at 6:00am and when you go there at 8:00pm the salad bar seems to be there since 6:00am - quite some flies around - the other food presented wasn’t worth it - seem to be the “rest from today” menu. The coop super market is good, the playgrounds in the surroundings where pretty entertaining for the kids. Oh, almost forgot: when checking in, you get a 10% off voucher for Burger King in the neighbourhood! Wi-Fi is free at an acceptable transfer rate. Holiday Express: Thanks but NO thanks!

This was a last minute booking for us and the price and location were really good before a day trip into Lucerne. Liked the location immediately, even in drizzling rain.We had a big balcony room overlooking the garden and lake.Very nice to arrive at after coming from Lake Maggiore and a long drive. The decor is fairly modern and it doesn't have charm as such but it was a quiet room with enough space. Buffet breakfast next morning was a bit of a highlight, especially since it was free and included! We never did get used to Swiss food prices during our trip. Easy to find and an easy drive into Lucerne next day.
