The uniqueness of the hotel experience was one of the things we like about this property. The rooms are small because I doubt that the prisoners at the time it was still a working prison enjoyed a suite sized accommodations. But as you lay in bed in your room at night, it will really make you wonder how it feels like to be in a prison cell. Truly, a proper lighting, room color, a minimalist design will leave an impression that the room is bigger than it actually is. The room is very basic but the beds are comfortable the room is clean, the private bathroom though small is clean and have soap and shampoo dispensers so you can shampoo generously! We also love the original heavy wooden prison doors! It really adds a real prison cell feel! It is definitely a story to tell everyone back home!

This is a really out of the ordinary experience. The room was very very small, as is expected from a prison cell :-) However, the bathroom and shower were nice, modern and clean and fully functional. Note that we were a couple and had separate single beds. We were however able to push them together side by side to make a double bed. Make no mistake, this is a small room! We we only there for two nights, and that was all for us. The location is perfect and for the price, it's hard to beat. We were a little disappointed with the breakfast. Since it was not included in our reservation, we decided to pay and add the breakfast. Everything was good and fresh, but the selection was not what we expected for the extra price. Overall, great location, great value.

The location was very convenient. The hotel was at walkable distances to the train station and other modes of public transport, to a few places of tourist attractions, such as the lion monument, the chapel bridge, the lake lucerne and the promenade, and to a variety of eateries. The receptionists were courteous and friendly in responding to any query. Although, being a basic hotel (as explained by one of the receptionists), glasses (for drinking water) were not provided in the room, those were promptly made available by one of the receptionists when requested for. The prison theme (with the instruction near the lift), the ambience inside the room, and the display shelf on the second floor were innovative. Overall our two-night stay was good.

This quaint converted-prison as a hotel room was interesting, convenient and comfortable. We booked it for the proximity to the train station. It was an easy 5-7 minute walk. The room was modest. Bed was comfortable and clean. Suitable for two people to stay for a short while. There are no extra amenities (like a coffee maker, or kettle, or indeed anything else). An in-house restaurant and neighborhood eateries make up for this, though. We enjoyed spicy Indian dishes at a delicious restaurant next door to this property.

The location was prime. It was a little difficult to find, but it was dark when we arrived. We have never stayed in prison before so it was a unique experience. We stayed in the prison library room. There were all of the original prison library books, mostly in German but a few in English. One prisoner had written his life goals "to buy a home in London" and "to get his wife back from the devil". It was a very unique experience, and I would stay again and recommend it. The bed was comfortable.
