Wonderful historic hotel; however, it can be a bit noisy from the metro outside, especially with the heat and windows open (no AC/fans provided). The receptionist helped us download the free city transportation pass we used to get to the Paul Klee Museum. A must see!! The beds were very comfortable, and the breakfast service was exceptional.

Great location, minutes from the train station on foot and the transportation hub. Decent breakfast (excellent granola cereal). The staff really helped with a reservation mix-up on my part and for that, I remain grateful. They also helped when ask during check-in and at other times. We just did not like the room much, not that we spent a lot of time in it. Twin beds not adjacent, odd beams across the wall to the ceiling, odd-looking stools to sit on instead of chairs, weak water pressure in the shower, a coat rack and hangers on what looked like a pipe instead of a closet or armoire. We really liked our stay in Bern with the hotel just a passing thought.

The room was clean and comfortable. The staff was friendly and helpful breakfast was fresh and had a lot of options. Location was wonderful. Close to all of the tourist spots. Listed with having “some” private parking but was informed they only have one spot. Parking in garage was very expensive. There was a smell of sewage in the shower. But they had had a plumber in that day so I assume they had an issue. But would stay again
