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.

The staff were amazing. They were extremely helpful. The hotel was steps away from the train station which was perfect when dragging around our luggage. The hotel is also in a great location for exploring the Old city. I would recommend it.

Hotel is literally across to Bern HB, very convenient! And just across the street there is a COOP supermarket. Room was clean and comfortable, just one of the front desk lady was not very friendly, as if she's not welcome us just because we arrived before check-in time started. Other than that the rest of our stay was quite enjoyable.

Great option for out of town travelers

Good hotel with a great location near the train station. The room was very comfortable although it didn't have air conditioning. The staff were all very friendly. Be prepared for city noise. Our room faced the street so we were expecting it. We loved the free transit passes (covered by the hotel city tax)

Money better spent elsewhere

The room was SMALL. We were bumping into furniture all the time just moving around. I paid for a balcony room, which looked out on a bunch of machinery in between a bunch of buildings. In addition to being a horrible view, there was only one chair out there, so we never used it. The breakfast was extra and not cheap, so we skipped it and the worst thing was that the wi-fi was only good for up to three devices. I've NEVER seen that before. The one positive thing was a good location for proximity to the train and city tram stations.

Location is great! I was denied luggage holding. Washrooms had very limited supply of everything (provided 1 of each (shower cap, soap, cotton swabs) for a room of 3 people). Stains noted on the carpet.

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.

This hotel is in a great location for the station . It also suited us because one of our key chosen activities in Bern was floating / swimming in the river Aare. There is a free lido resort style space that is only a 10 minute walk down hill . I understand it’s only open from June to mid September. The open air pool ‘s are totally free and you can gain access to float down the river . We spent the most of our 2 .5 days stay in the lido. One of the reasons for picking this Hotel was it mentioned that you could use the partner Hotel called the Ambassador for their pool. Due to the local outdoor facilities available close by we didn’t need to use this. If you did apparently you ask Reception to call ahead . Useful to know if travelling in non summer months. The hotel itself is very run down , it feels like a 3 star in terms of decor . Dated carpet ,old fashioned painted white walls . Our bedroom was so narrow you could not walk around the bed without turning our body side ways .- literally less than 50 cms . We stayed in room 306 . Other room of the same category are not the same they are larger. Our sons stayed in room on 2 nd floor and much more space . Also useful to know that you get free use of the bus in the city of Bern included with your room rate. You need to process a code on your check in information. This is applicable to any hotel you staying in because the tourist tax we have found the ins Switzerland they haven’t always been forthcoming and telling thi
