The hotel is just 5 mins from one of the exit of Berne Railway station. Walk toward Migro supermarket direction, take the escalator where the supermaket is on your right. When you come up, you will see UBS bank in front of you. Turn left into the hotel street, and walk about 5 mins. The hotel entrance and lobby is... More

Room adequate size with simple furniture typical of hotel rooms in Switzerland Breakfast room was bright and clean and they served fruit, cereal, yogurt, cheese, breads, ham/other meats and made cooked eggs with meat to order. The hotel desk staff was young and very friendly and knowledgeable. Spoke excellent English. Perhaps... More

We came in on the the train to Bern and walked directly to the hotel in about 5 minutes. Check in was quick and the room was just fine. Beds could be a bit softer, but all in all the room and the bathroom was fine. We lok for clean rooms, good location and professional treatment, and that's what we... More

I found this a nice hotel, but not really a 4 star hotel by European standards. The hotel is very clean and staff friendly, but it has a small lobby, the rooms are rather big, but with small bathroom. I consider it a 3 star hotel, but no more. The best of the hotel, no doubt, is the location. Very... More

The location of the hotel is perfect, it's right by Parliament. The building is old, but recently renovated. Our room was huge comparing to standard European accommodations. It was sparkly clean, with huge windows overlooking not so busy street. Staff was pleasant and helpful. They gave us couple tips where to eat. The breakfast was very good, it consists of... More

I stayed here for two nights on business. It's very well located, five minutes from the train station and close to all the main government buildings. It's clean and comfortable, if not exactly charming (looks like the inside of pretty much any business hotel anywhere in Europe). It had free wifi, which I was pleased about. The double room I...

Stayed here for three nights on business. A good location, very close to main station. Comfortable rooms, although for this particular (unusually hot) week, the lack of aircon in my particular room was not ideal. Staff very polite and helpful. A good continental breakfast. For visitors from outside Switzerland, difficult to be fair about judging cost and value for money,... More

I highly recommend this hotel. Convenient, central location, 5 minute walk to train station, great restaurants, shopping. Half a block from the Parliament Building and Swiss Bank HQ. Traveled alone, and stayed in a double room (recommend requesting the upgrade from the single--lots more room for not much more money). Comfortable bed, ice cold A/C, and very clean. The highlight...
