“The Altstadt Hotel Magic Luzern wins on location, set right in the Old Town, steps from the Chapel Bridge; its uniquely themed rooms also caught my attention, though some show their age with the need of a fresh coat of paint. Breakfast shines, served in the elegant Hotel Krone nearby, setting a high bar for Swiss hospitality and quality. Ultimately, it's a quirky choice with a superb location.”
