Easy-Living Kriens Apartments

Easy-Living Kriens Apartments Overview

First Impressions

When I first walked into Easy-Living Kriens Apartments, I honestly wasn’t expecting much from a three-star place — but you know what, sometimes the best surprises come in understated packages. The building sits quietly in Kriens, just outside the tourist chaos of central Lucerne, and there’s something refreshing about that immediate sense of calm. The lobby is clean and modern without trying too hard, and the staff actually seemed genuinely happy to see me rather than going through the motions.

The Apartment Setup

My apartment was spacious in a way that made me wonder why I ever bother with cramped hotel room. The kitchen came fully equipped — I mean really equipped, not just a mini-fridge and a prayer. I actually cooked dinner a couple of nights, which saved money and felt surprisingly homey after long days exploring the region. The living area flows naturally into the sleeping space, and while it’s not fancy, everything works exactly as it should. The Wi-Fi was solid, the heating responsive, and honestly, the whole setup just made sense for anyone staying more than a night or two.

Location Perks

Here’s what the guidebooks won’t tell you — being in Kriens instead of central Lucerne is actually brilliant. You’re a quick train ride from Lake Lucerne and all the main attractions, but you get to experience how locals actually live. The neighborhood has this authentic Swiss residential feel, with proper bakeries and small shops where people know each other’s names. I found myself walking to the nearby Pilatus railway station regularly, and the whole area feels safe and welcoming even late at night.

Practical Advantages

The parking situation here deserves special mention — it’s included and stress-free, which anyone who’s tried to park in central Lucerne will appreciate. Having a proper base with laundry facilities and space to spread out made such a difference during my week-long stay. I could stock up on groceries, do washing, and actually relax instead of constantly packing and unpacking. The building stays quiet too, which I wasn’t entirely expecting given the reasonable rates.

Why Guests Love It

What really strikes me about this place is how it delivers exactly what it promises without any pretense. You’re not paying for marble lobbies or concierge services, but you get clean, functional space that feels like a temporary home rather than just somewhere to sleep. The high guest ratings make complete sense — couples especially seem to appreciate having space to breathe and the authentic neighborhood setting. It’s the kind of place where you can settle in properly, explore the region at your own pace, and actually save money while doing it. Sometimes that beats fancy hotels hands down.
