Staff were lovely, one of our rooms was fab and looked to have been recently renovated but the other was quite dated, rooms were comfortable and a great price for a great location.

Room was small for price. Arrangement of beds was kind of weird Queen was two narrow beds put together and one kept falling in between the beds at night.

3/5 - Okay

Verified traveller

There wasn't much of interest to us there but we did visit the history museum which was quite good. We stopped for a couple of hours at Bern which was a sporadic decision on our travels and wish we had stayed there instead for the night.

5/5 - Excellent

Verified traveller

Transport from the airport was free and the hotel provided a free travel card which was great. Food and drink was expensive though Old town was very picturesque especially as the sun was shining on the day we visited !

5/5 - Excellent

Incredible food, warm and friendly people and the mountain views are phenomenal.
