Hotel Amaris  

A chic hotel in a good location for the shops and old town

Lovely Hotel next to Olten railway station. Lovely big room with a balcony (3rd floor room)

The cost

Room very large, clean and comfortable.

Our room was on the first floor and was practically on the train station platform!!. The air conditioning unit was the portable kind, which was very noisy and hot air came out the back, but you couldn't sleep with the windows open as too too noisy. If we had been there longer would of asked to change rooms.

Airconditioning in the room is a perk most Swiss hotels don't offer; it was most welcome on a hot day. Also a Nespresso machine in the room is a nice extra. Being right next to a very busy railstation, the sound isolation was thankfully good.

I loved the convenience of being practically inside the train station but feeling as if I had travelled a long way from it as soon as I stepped into the hotel. The staff were almost supernaturally solicitous and wonderfully efficient. The quality of my sleep on the mattress, which was firm in exactly the right degree, was even better than at home -- which has made me wonder how I can specify its dimensions to replicate it seven thousand (?) miles away. The trains of which the Swiss are so rightly proud do not clatter but move with a smooth, steady rhythm and so did not disturb me at all in my room facing away from the railways tracks. I would like the recipe for the Bircher muesli served at breakfast: it was fabulous.

In nearly every reasonably priced hotel these days, not just this one, I miss a bathtub. The suites at the Amaris do have them, but I wish they could be standard features for every room -- even though I know that that's whistling in the wind.

Staff helpful; cleanness , breakfast simple but enough

Close to the rail station
