The hype

Tailormade Hotel Rigiblick Küssnacht
$170-200 / nacht
Boek dit als You need a surgically clean, high-tech base camp for Rigi or Lucerne and don't care about staying in a postcard-perfect village center.
Waarom mensen ervan houden
- Kitchenettes in every single room (rare for this price)
- Soundproofing that actually works despite the highway location
- Legit Italian food downstairs at Ristorante la Strada
Snel Overzicht: It’s a modern, efficient lodging module attached to a gas station in an industrial park—but it’s cleaner and more comfortable than most historic hotels in town.
Beoordeeld door @NinaMecate4956599: I stayed here for a quick trip and honestly, it’s perfect if you need efficiency. The lobby is a great workspace, and the room design is super unique with those cowhide walls. It’s not a honeymoon spot, but for a clean, modern base near Lucerne, it’s a winner.

Kamer Genie
Beste keuzes
- Superior King with Balcony (facing Mount Rigi) — the view clears the industrial foreground

Kamers om te vermijden

Veelgestelde vragen & Verborgen tips
Alles wat je eigenlijk wilt weten voordat je boekt.
Is the location really that bad?
It's not 'bad', it's just functional. It's in the Fänn industrial zone. Great for logistics, bad for strolling.
Can I check in after 8pm?
Yes, but you must use the self-check-in terminal at the entrance. Have your booking number ready.
Is there air conditioning?
Yes, which is a huge plus in Swiss summers where many hotels lack it.
How far is the train station?
Küssnacht am Rigi station is about 2.3km away. You'll want a car or to rely on the bus (stop 'Ellbögli' is nearby).
Is breakfast included?
Usually no. It costs ~CHF 19 per person. Many guests skip it and use the bakery nearby or their own kitchen.
Is it pet friendly?
No, pets are generally not allowed, though service animals are exempt.

5 dingen die je moet weten voordat je gaat
💡The toilet quality—one reviewer called it 'one of the best toilets in a hotel in Europe'.

💡You can watch cows grazing in the green pastures directly behind the industrial parking lot.
💡The Italian restaurant downstairs (La Strada) is a local favorite, not just a hotel trap.
💡The motorized window shades are excellent for sleeping in.
