The most fantastic staff ever, so welcoming and warm, and gave great advice for visiting the city! Lovely clean room, great amenities, basic but decent breakfast, and ideal location!
Staff were so nice and made everything easy. Room was very comfortable and clean, I really enjoyed my stay. Best of all it was only a couple of minutes' walk from the station and from all the meeting points during my trip! 100% recommend.
Very kind lady at the front desk who helped us with checking in, parking, the public transport and choosing dining options. The rooms are nice and the atmosphere is really cozy as well! Would stay here longer if we could!

Very convenient for the main station. Breakfast was typical and fine. Staff exceptionally friendly and helpful
Ana on reception was so incredibly helpful and went out of her way to ensure we had a good stay in Bern. The room was lovely and the hotel is in a convenient location near the train station and bus station.
Breakfast was good. Location was perfect, no need for a car as a tram stop is in front of the hotel. Restaurants and shops are nearby. Check in/out was quick and efficient. They don’t have a parking garage but there is a public one for 35 francs for the whole day about 1.5 blocks away. No complaints. Will stay there again
The Hotel was extremely well located. Staff was outstanding, rooms basic but very comfortable anr clean.
A very good location, however keep in mind it is a very busy location and not ideal for quiet and peaceful sleep.
Fantastic location near the ttain station, the Old Town, and public transit, with some great restaurants nearby as well. The rooms and beds are very comfortable and cozy, excellent continental breakfast buffet, and staff are friendly and helpful. Highly recommended!

Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
The location and staff were great. The rooms could use upgrading, though. And the bathroom was pitifully small.
The hotel was excellent. We had a family room with private bath. They included portable fans, which was really nice during a heat wave. Hotel was right next to a tram stop, so very easy to get around.
Beautiful historic building with high ceilings. Comfortable beds. Tram noise and people outside require closed windows at night. Friendly front desk staff, restaurant staff seemed put out.
