Wonderful

Great location within walking distance of the Bern train station. Lots of shops and restaurants to choose from. Hotel staff were friendly and the room was quiet and clean.
Hotel seems centrally located to shopping and places of interest. The check in was easy, staff was friendly. The rooms were very nice and clean. The bed was comfortable.
The location is perfect, less than 10 minutes to train station. Closed to all attractions, shops, especially the big supermarket next door. The room is bit small with combine toilet shower, but clean and well equipped. The staff is friendly and sufficient. Enjoy the stay.
The hotel is conveniently located near attractions and within walking distance of the train station. We used the hotel as a base to go visit other towns via train- Gruyeres and Thun. Then came back to see the sites and eat in Bern. I would recommend this hotel.
Clean room, polite and professional service, comfortable beds and good sized/clean bathrooms. Also, the hotel location is impeccable.
I'm only giving 4 stars because:
1) the pillows were somewhat thin and not very easy to sleep on, and
2) there was an unpleasant odour at the front entrance to the hotel when we arrived and it stayed there for 2 days. Not sure what was causing it but I hope the hotel management takes care of it.
Otherwise, excellent stay, I would come back to this hotel any time.
