    Pros +

    • Beautiful hotel, comfortable beds, excellent breakfast and dinner
    • I loved the place of stay and managed with food. Also, since I am a pure vegetarian, on every items which I have, require to ask and eat.
    • Location and surroundings are great, stuff is friendly, clean rooms with an old charm

    Cons -

    • Food could had been better with some vegetarian sandwitches without eggs and vegetables and seasonal fruits.
    • Rooms are not soundproof
    • Room was spacious and elegant, but minimally furnished - just one hard chair, and a stool. As so many have commented, soundproofing was poor. Convenient for Stans station on the Engelberg line, but not much going on this peaceful little town. Rather overpriced, even by Swiss standards.

    Superb tavolata at dinner - a succession of innovative, very tasty small dishes. Lovely atmosphere in this simply converted monastery. Friendly staff.

    Very stylish rooms. Wonderful breakfast on Sunday as well as amazing diner experience with local and organic products. Very warm-hearted personnel

    9GeoffreyPosted on: 10-9-2024

    Breakfasts were just right, great location!

    Was a bit confused on where to check in, and wasn't clear on where our rooms were. Not a huge deal, but an opty to be better.

    The owner was kind and hospitable. I had difficulty finding the hotel and he literally walked to where I was so that I could get there.

    It's pretty Spartan. One pillow for a queen size bed. I stayed on a very warm night and there was no AC. To cool the room I had to open all the windows, directly above the restaurant, so all that noise kept me awake.

    9RoiPosted on: 8-8-2024

    Very special hotel with a lot of character. Beautiful building and view. Great staff

    It could be helpful to have a fan in the rooms since there isn’t AC

    10PaulPosted on: 5-26-2024

    Peter and his staff were absolutely outstanding. The size of the room and the bed were extremely comfortable. Accommodations The food was fabulous. The breakfast was outstanding. The surface was very personal and professional.

    Regretfully it rained.

    I had the best sleep among all places I‘ve ever been to. Welcome drink was nice, I was glad to receive something tasty and non-alcoholic.

    It was a bit hard to find the reception and the food was not extraordinary despite its high price. Don‘t get me wrong, it was fine, I just expected something special after reading the name and the price tag.

    6RebeccaPosted on: 4-16-2023

    Comfy bed, breakfast with local ingredients.Got some apple juice in the room. As no one was at the reception after 3pm, we got our key in the letterbox, good explanations. Good location if you have a car.

    Quite expensive for such basic room. No kettle, no coffee, no decoration, etc.If you have a light sleep, this might not be a hotel for you. My friend was awake at 7am because you could hear everything's happening outside.

    Location: just minutes away from Luzern by car. Culinarium is located in a wonderful small town surrounded by nature, mountains & fresh air.Restaurant: Try the surprise menu for a culinary experience. The menus were only in German, but that wasn't an issue as some spoke English. Breakfast was basic but plentiful: with breads, jams, cheese & eggs at your disposal. Room: Scandinavian chic comes to mind. Decor is simple but works well as the natural outdoor scenery shines bright.

    My only issue was the bed, it was uncomfortable & the pillows flattened so much that it felt as if there was no pillow.Other than that, everything was great.

    An absolutely wonderful location, beautiful property and good breakfast

    The cow bells woke us up!

    9HelenPosted on: 4-10-2022

    The staff - everyone went out of their way to accommodate us and our two excitable puppies. We weren't the easiest guests!The food - delicious, fresh and invenitve.The rooms - simplicity itself, but very comfortable indeed.

    No complaints!

    9UnknownPosted on: 2-28-2022

    Really cool and cozy place with great food from local producers. Really professional and service minded host and staff.

    8AnthonyPosted on: 1-2-2022

    Stunning building in beautiful landscape. Amenities at walking distance. Excellent value for money when ordering the ‘Surprise’ menu.

    Written resources only available in German. Shower drainage setup in need of improvement. Poor sound insulation between adjoining rooms. No soap provided or in-room tea/coffee facilities.

    Nothing - amazing stay!

    10ChristophPosted on: 9-29-2021

    No superficial stuff, and yet everything what you need. Very straight but lovely decoration with a lot of wood. Very helpful staff and excellent food. You just feel good.

    The soundproofing between the rooms could be improved.. but during our stay, the other guests were very calm so that it didn’t have negative consequences.

    10UnknownPosted on: 4-18-2021

    The dinner was great! The staff was attentive and helpful. It’s a quiet and peaceful place.

    9UnknownPosted on: 12-30-2020

    I loved our stay at the Culinarium Alpinum. The room was spacious and cozy, the style and furniture were really cool. The design of the hotel is fascinating, has a lot of history, with a mix of renovated spaces that respect the old structure of the complex.We had dinner at the hotel as well. The food was amazing, creative but at the same time rediscovering some local traditions and with ingredients from local producers. We'd like to come back in Summer to visit again, we really enjoyed.
