Hotel Pilatus-Kulm

Schlossweg 1, Kriens, 6010 Luzern

Nowhere are the stars brighter and the sunrise more spectacular than on Mount Pilatus. So close to Lucerne and yet in a completely different world are the Pilatus Kulm Hotels at 2,132 metres above sea level. The experience begins as soon as you arrive in the world's steepest cogwheel railway or by aerial cable car. The Pilatus Kulm Hotels offer a unique overnight experience in the 15 comfortably furnished double rooms of the Hotel Bellevue (standard rooms) or in the 27 superior double rooms and 3 junior suites of the historic Berghotel Pilatus-Kulm, which was built in 1890 and completely renovated in 2010. Both hotels offer breathtaking views of the Alpine panorama and Lake Lucerne.
