The hotel is a budget-category property, with indicative double-room rates from about CHF 90 to CHF 160 per night depending on season, which is low for Luzern.

A breakfast buffet is listed among the amenities, along with wifi, and breakfast is a useful inclusion in a budget stay. No restaurant, pool or spa is advertised, so guests eat out in the surrounding neighbourhood or the old town. The guest rating of about 4.2 suggests good value for the category. Service character is simple and practical, aimed at budget travellers, backpackers, and families or small groups who can use the Triple Rooms to share costs. The position outside the tourist core means quieter nights and lower prices, with the trade-off of a longer walk to the main sights. Visitors should check the room type carefully at booking to confirm whether a private bathroom is included, and confirm reception hours when planning late arrivals. Luzern's public transport network covers the area, and the station walk is flat. Overall Hotel Alpha offers a low-cost, shared-bathroom base with breakfast, a short walk south of the Luzern station.
