Much better than expected. This hotel at the motorway is great. It is very clean; the rooms are spacious, and the breakfast was very nice as well. The staff was very friendly and helpful. We can highly recommend this place if you are traveling through Switzerland. The price is much cheaper in comparison to hotels in Bern and you are right next to the motorway for an early start, and you can avoid the traffic in town.

very basic hotel but clean and comfortable. Located right off the highway, 12-15 min to downtown of Bern. Parking was additional 6 or 8 dollars and they have a complementary electric car charger on site. The room was quite small for four people. Nothing is in the room besides the beds and a TV. A microwave and a coffee machine in the lobby with complementary beverages the day of the arrival, but you can not have coffee in the morning if you didn’t buy breakfast from them (and there is no coffee maker in the room).

Had a bit of a hard time getting on the right road to access the hotel. Once there the room and staff were great. In fact in the morning there were 2 buses of people who overwhelmed the breakfast area, literally taking all the food as soon as it came out, leaving nothing for other guests who were not willing to be so pushy. The poor cook and staff were in tears but did an excellent job holding it together. They tried to accommodate those of us not with the foreign travelers on the busses. It was the craziest behavior of people at a breakfast buffet we have ever seen. The staff was excellent in such a weird frenzy.

My family and I stayed here for a few nights and we really loved it! It is more of a remote location so plan to walk to certain stations for transportation (~15 min) but they have everything necessary nearby (gas station, bistro/deli, small resturant, fast food, etc.) The room was small but cozy and comfortable and the staff were kind and helpful! The breakfast is fantastic and free every day from select hours and all around us are gorgeous nature views and paths! The bathroom wasn't bad but be careful of water spilling out of the tub - really that's are main compliant but others we had a lovely time, thanks to the staff at Hotel Grauholz!

Un acierto la elección aunque este a las afueras de Berna, hotel muy cómodo, tranquilo y limpio. En el hall hay un coffee que incluye agua, zumo, infusiones y café las 24 hrs. El desayuno es sencillo, pero adecuado con todo lo necesario para salir con las pilas cangadas.

Booked 2 rooms for 4 adults and 4 kids. Both rooms only had beds for 3 people. When we asked about it, staff advised that the extra bed was broken. One of our kids had to sleep on the floor and one had to use the bench as a bed. Hotel was understaffed (only one staff) and AC was broken in one room.

The air conditioner do not work and hotel staff acknowledged it too and don’t know when it will be repaired which is why i have a low rating on comfort. They could have at least provide a fan and it was not offered.

Clean but very hot rooms in summer

This hotel would be fine in cooler temperatures but it was so hot in our rooms that it was very difficult to sleep at all. There are air conditioning units in the rooms but they did not cool things down much at all. You can open windows at night but this hotel is right off the freeway so it's got a lot of road noise. It was a high price too for the lack of sleep we had. The front desk staff were really nice, there were drinks available all the time which was great, and the hotel rooms we were in were clean.

Es ist ein sehr schönes gut ausgestattetes Hotel und immer gut geeignet für eine Zwischenübernachtung unterwegs. Auch wenn es direkt an der Autibahn gelegen ist, so höhrt man doch keinen Lärm durch die gut isolierten Fenster.
