Great location, within easy walk from the train station. Check-in was quick and efficient. If you arrive early, you can leave your luggage while go you explore Bern's beautiful old town. The rooms are on the small side, but the beds are comfortable. There's a portable fan that you can set in the window to bring in much needed fresh air. Our rooms faced away from the busy traffic on the street, so it was quiet and allowed us to sleep with the window wide open. Breakfast is CHF 15 and excellent. Check-out was simple and accurate.

L’hôtel est très bien situé mais venir en voiture est impossible ! Accès très difficile à cause des tramways et bus, zéro parking. Le plus proche est à 1 km à pied… sympa avec les bagages !!!! Et l’ascenseur ben c’est un 1/2 ascenseur pour après marcher 1 km avec tes bagages tu te tapes les escaliers !!!! Horrible

Perfekt til et kort ophold i Bern

Meget venlig velkomst og udtjekning. Perfekt beliggenhed ved togstationen og tæt på Unesco-området. Alt helt perfekt, bortset fra en lidt fjollet placeret håndbruser.

The hotel is right next to the train station, and a block away from old town. So you have great access to travel options, shopping, and attractions. The room was fairly clean. They missed a spot with crumb on the desk. But everything else was clean. The room did get warm in June, they did have movable fans to make it more comfortable, but it did still stay warm. Staff was nice and helpful. The breakfast was mostly breads, cereal, boiled eggs, cold cuts, fruit, and yogurt. Expensive for what is was, however Switzerland itself is expensive, so you have to keep that in mind as a full breakfast would cost a lot more than what we paid. And for the convenience for early day trips with kids, we thought it kicked off the day well. Think of this hotel as not luxury, but a utilitarian option with a great location, relatively clean, with a nice staff.

Foi péssima, chegamos antes do check in e minha mulher precisando ir no banheiro e a pessoa na recepção falou que não tinha banheiro que pedíamos deixar as malas e ir num banheiro público na estação de trem ou numa loja a uns 100 metros no 5.o andar.
