Bern Visit

The property is a short walk from the bus and train stations and very convenient to the old city. My stay was not very long but the hotel offered a free drink if I did not require additional housekeeping, which I felt was a great perk. The restaurant looked busy during business hours. The front desk staff was very attentive and helpful. The room was a little tight in size but ample enough as I was traveling solo; the bed was otherwise very comfortable. Would recommend to others.

Disappointing! I feel like I was bamboozled! This hotel should have a 2 Star rating at best! The reviews for this property were really good and I honestly can’t understand how! I had to double check that I was at the correct hotel. We traveled as a party of 8 in Switzerland for 12 days and stayed at 7 different hotels. We loved all of our hotels except this one. The host was not very warm upon arrival. There is no parking at the hotel so I had to park 3 blocks away at a casino. I was so surprised/disappointed when I saw our room! It was outdated, had multiple dings in the wall, and had stains in the carpet. The bathroom is super tiny and the bed was extremely uncomfortable. There was no air conditioning. We laid in bed and marinated in our sweat all night. The only redeeming quality of this hotel is that it is in a fantastic location.

Very quaint hotel with great service. Breakfast was continental and well supplied. The washroom was a little tight for me but was very usable. Close to the train station and lots of amenities like restaurants and grocery close by. A bit on the expensive side but everything in Switzerland is lol

Would not recommend. Rooms in very poor condition. Damaged wall with large hole in wall, floor lamp damaged and inoperable with broken shade, dirty shower, torn rug, inoperable and poor room lighting. They covered a broken desk lamp with a tea set. Bathroom very poorly designed. More like a bad hostel or hospital room. Felt unclean and poorly maintained. We booked a premium room. Amenities were not as advertised. Claimed we had to ask for them. Couldn’t get any compensation because we booked through Expedia. Offered one free drink which was pitiful. Would not stay again or recommend. For our last stay in Switzerland it was sad and disappointing.
