University-Themed Floors at Campus Hotel Hertenstein

Where Science Meets Hospitality

At Campus Hotel Hertenstein, we combine inspiring stays with academic excellence. Each floor is dedicated to a renowned international university – a visible symbol of our close partnerships in research, education, and medical innovation.
This concept is directly connected to the Lake Lucerne Institute (LLUI), an independent, non-profit research institute with locations in Hertenstein and Vitznau. Like Campus Hotel Hertenstein, the LLUI is part of the Pühringer Foundation Group. The institute brings together an interdisciplinary team of researchers who, in collaboration with national and international partners, develop innovative research approaches and bridge the gap between theory and practice.

Our university-themed floors are a reflection of the spirit we live by: curiosity, progress, and a passion for empowering people.

In this way, Campus Hotel Hertenstein becomes a place of exchange, connection, and inspiration – floor by floor.
