Annie Hoa and her husband Silaas were very kind. Although we had paid for the room without a view, they so kind to offer us the room with the view for our stay. The room with the view has a great terrace, it is such a calm and tranquil area. Their house is very clean and hygenic. Also the kitchen is very nice, they have everything that you may need from coffee machine to every day use utensils and it is a part of the homestay to share the kitchen. It was very nice that we also had the chance to talk to Annie Hoa and Silaas and got to know them a little bit :) There is also free parking which makes it easy for guests doing a roadtrip. It is also close to Lucerne by car, around 20 mins. All in all it was a great experience for us to stay with them!

We had the romance suite. The views from the balcony or bath tub are stunning and unrivalled. It’s a very large suite and just perfect In every way. The restaurant is a must, the food and service are impeccable. Would definitely stay here again.

Privat-Spa mit Whirlpool und Sauna in Sursee

Sursee (Near Hildisrieden)

We really enjoyed the private spa stay in Sursee, It was truly a wonderful Experience. Future guests do check this place out. First its location is a bit odd, as it is situated in an industrial area, in an office building complex where there are other businesses. But once you enter the spa side of the building, you do enter a lovely space and you do quickly forget that you’re in an office complex. You get a lovely big whirlpool jacuzzi, a sauna, and an open walk-in shower. There is a fridge filled with drinks and snacks “not included in on the cost, which would have been nice, but still with the supplied price list, the costs are acceptable. There is a Bluetooth speaker, a tv, and two air conditioners. One for tempature and the other for humidity. We did not use the Bluetooth speaker or the TV, so we can’t comment on that. You get 4 towels and 2 bath robes. And for all you smokers out there, there is a seperated smoking room. Just around the corner from the building where the room is located is a truly fantastic restaurant called Barrage, great food, awesome atmosphere, lovely dinner spot, 2 min drive, or a short walk. We also did not opt to have food service, so no breakfast or dinner. Mainly because we wanted to go out for dinner, and you need to leave at 10am in the morning sharp!, which for us, as parents of many kids, never getting the opportunity to sleep late, meant we slept as late as we could, and if we were to have breakfast, we would have needed a later check out time, and so we opted to sleep late, leave at 10 have a late breakfast elsewhere. This place does come recommended, our stay was fantastic, the Jacuzzi, so nice. If your goal is to relax, this is a great place to do it. Quiet, peaceful, Private, you get your own space to just chill out, and that is exactly what we got, it was really wonderful, I enjoyed every second of it, and do highly recommend this place.

Good breakfast and anti mosquitoe screens in the windows! Very good choice, much better than a moldy, noisy, dry-air creating and not air renewing A/C unit. All you need from an hotel: a good night of sleep and a good breakfast. The rest is unnecessary. And there was ample free parking. Recommended.

We booked this hotel in Emmen Nord, only a 8-9 minutes easy drive from downtown Lucern. This proved to be a good choice. the hotel was a beautiful place and felt like a trendy spot with good food and service. We also appreciated the attention to design details in rooms and resto. Breakfast was delicious (especially the crisp and buttery tasting croissants). Upon check out, we noticed some odd financial transaction emails far exceeding the booking cost, but the owner rapidly replied and made appropriate verifications to ensure we were not overcharged by mistake. The is a small elevator which is nice with heavy suitcases and the patio was pleasant for end of afternoon cocktails. Lots of PARKING right across from hotel, a plus! I regret not having had enough time to actually have dinner too at FeRUS, as speaks smelled tasty. Staff spoke French, English and German, very kind and helpful
