Staff are kind. Room is quite big compared to other hotels we stayed in this trip in Germany and Switzerland. Location is 30m away from famous restaurant Kornhauskeller. Maybe for walking 80m you’ll see clock tower (Zytglogge). You have Nr 10 bus to go to Bern main station and rose garden (rosengarten). It’s very convenient for us.

The hotel was a building site. The entrance was appalling . Only one lift worked. My floor should have been closed the ceiling had been removed and all the electric wiring etc was exposed. By the lift the workmen were creating a screen with wood.Outside my bedroom major building work was happening in the central courtyard

The hotel is undergoing major renovation and this was not noted on booking.com. The place looks like a bomb has gone off. I had ants in my room , lots of ants

Hotel was under construction with a lot of noise, my corridor and neighbouring rooms were completely under construction. There was no communication about this beforehand - if I knew about this I wouldn't have chosen this fairly expensive hotel. After giving this feedback to the lady at the reception I did get a 10% discount for my next stay.
Nice and clean room, good breakfast and good location.

Most of the property was under severe reconstruction work. Wall, ceilings and concrete floors were pulled down, the whole building seemed to be excavated, only few habitable rooms were scattered over the whole building. The way to reach these was along a typical bulding site.

The room is well equipped.

- • Comfort Double Room

The hotel was under major renovations. Our room was big but very old and stained furniture. At least the bedding was clean and comfortable. Was not good value for a poor quality room. Had we been told when booking online that there was major renovations going on we may have reconsidered. Breakfast was held in the old meeting room, was told that the new breakfast room will be opening in a few days time.

Thank goodness we only stayed for one night as we were put on the 5th floor which was a total construction site. There is no way any guests should be staying on this floor as it was not safe. There was no ceiling in the corridors and electrical wiring was hanging down from all over the place. Building materials were on the floor and we were literally walking through clouds of dust as we made our way in and out of our room. Can’t believe authorities would allow people to inhabit the hotel (particularly 5th floor) in this state, compromising our health and safety.
The staff were very friendly
