10/10 Excellent
"The staff were welcoming and helpful and the room was clean. It was great to have kitchen facilities. Although we were outside the centre of Bern, the public transport was excellent so we were in the centre in no time. It was quite an unusual hotel in some ways but it was a fantastic base to explore beautiful Bern."
