Convenient and close to train stop. Quiet area with hiking options close by. Outdoor patio was a great place to have breakfast and dinner. Place was clean and comfortable with plenty of space. Would come back to this house.

What an absolutely charming apartment! Fiona has done a marvelous job thinking through every detail in this modern, clean, renovated and extremely convenient accommodation! Providing ample space for a family of 4, Pilatus Nest is literally a stone's throw from the funicular servicing Mount Pilatus and offers easy access to the train station (3 minute walk!). In our three day, 4 night stay, we were able to climb three peaks (Titlis, Rigi, and Pilatus), comfortably see Lucerne, Brienz, and Interlaken, and spend time boating and swimming in Lake Lucerne. Because of our busy and compact itinerary, eating breakfasts and dinners in was a must, and the loft's amenities and gorgeous patio made it so enjoyable for my family of four to unwind, drink wine, talk about our adventures, listen to music streamed to the apartment's speaker, and make more memories. Our only challenges were grocery shopping (needed to take the train to Alpnach's Coop to secure groceries) and no AC on one of Switzerland's hottest weekends in years (sleeping with open windows and breathing the fresh outside air was amazing though!). Overall, Pilatus Nest is easily one of the best VRBO's we've stayed in ever, and we do sincerely hope to be back again one day!

Excellent experience overall. Property was lovely, spacious, tastefully decorated and very near the Alpnachstad cog train station to Pilatus Kulm and the boat docktrain to Luzern. Keep in mind there are quite a few stairs up if you have lots of luggages. The internet was slow unfortunately but the rest of the amenities are excellent We had a great experience and definitely an excellent option if you want to have a full Pilatus experience. Pro tip, go up Pilatus Kulm via cable car in Kriens, down to Alpnachstad via cogwheel train and then take the boat to Luzern. You need to get the timing right and may want to start early but this would be a full day experience
