Food
Our storied Swiss inn is centuries old yet decisively new and fresh. As soon as you step inside, you will notice that everything revolves around our valued guests. The enthusiastic team will be delighted to serve you and make a fine impression. Welcome to STERN Luzern The very first mention of our establishment dates back to 1534. Since then, much has happened, but the attractive location in the heart of Lucerne s old town has remained the same. Immediately opposite of our sunny terrace is the Franciscan church and its peaceful park. In spring 2012 the historic building and restaurant chambers were tastefully refurbished. The result is a trendy venue that blends nostalgic charm with contemporary chic. The pretty hotel rooms can accommodate up to four people and the three superior rooms offer even more comfort. Experience traditional Swiss hospitality for yourself! Thanks to a creative menu that uses wholesome regional ingredients to present a fresh take on international favorites, STERN Luzern has quickly become the shooting star on Lucerne s culinary horizon. The inn may be rented for private parties or corporate functions, exclusiveness assured!
The STERN team works very hard to bring fresh ingredients from the market to the restaurant table every day. Indeed, most of our top quality ingredients are locally-grown, including the vegetables from Weggis, the lamb meat from Canton Uri or the fresh fish from the waters of Lake Lucerne. It s our own way of ensuring a sustainable supply chain. Just like you would expect from any typical Swiss inn, we are proud to serve our wine by the glass or the bottle and we feature two kinds of local beers. Aside from the well-known Eichhof you might also be curious to try the micro-brew Urbräu. Because our restaurant offers such a cozy atmosphere, we regularly receive reservations for breakfast, even from non-hotel guests. It s just another way of celebrating the day s most important meal. Since the re-opening of STERN Luzern, the old regulars have returned while new patrons have discovered this little gem. Step inside and you will find yourself amongst locals and tourists, gourmets and card players. It s a place where the old is new again and where everyone feels the pleasant vibe. It s wonderful to have you as our guest and we wish you a lovely stay!
