I was very pleased with the hotel itself. It was clean. It had everything that we needed. We had breakfast in the morning and we were treated incredibly well by the host Elizabeth and we got also to meet the chef Roman absolutely wonderful people. I will definitely recommend this to all my family and friends and I will be back next year.

Internet was problematic, disconnected many times. No proper heating in rooms. Very light flow of water in shower.
We enjoyed our stay at this hotel. The breakfast was great and really good. Public transportation was across the street and very close to the hotel. Our room had a great view of the city and the Bern Expo. The staff were all friendly, and very helpful. Highly recommend this place. Definitely when we are visiting Bern we will stay here again. Thank you so much!!!
