Impeccable in every way. The rooms, the service, the food (vegan-friendly!), the atmosphere, and the fantastic DJ. Absolutely the best hotel I've ever stayed at. Within a few days, I felt like family. I've never met such warm, friendly, and efficient staff. Staying there is like entering another world you'll never want to leave! Special thanks to Patrick, who went out of his way to make my stay unforgettable. I look forward to my next visit!

This is an old-money luxury hotel. Wealthy Swiss people specifically come here for lunch. The service is exceptional; they're incredibly responsive, helpful, and super enthusiastic. The rooms are spacious enough, and the location in the old town is very close to the clock tower, just a 10-minute walk to the train station.

The hotel boasts a prime location, situated in a central area, and is housed in a beautiful old building with impeccable taste in every aspect. The restaurant's terrace overlooking the river is also very comfortable. The only downside is that the bed is too small; for such a large room, it would be advisable to make the bed a bit bigger.

It was a lovely hotel. Although it was a little far from Bern station, it was centrally located and easy to get around.

The hotel is great. Compared with most European hotels, the hardware facilities of this hotel are definitely worthy of the five-star rating. The surrounding old town scenery is beautiful.
23.06.2025 Guest
Disappointed about the quality what a five-star hotel offered. Besides the poor service of first day front staff, the overall experience was compromised by the room temperature and the missing part of their ways of communication. Sad to say, i wont come back.
14.06.2025 Guest
The overall feeling is still very good
05.06.2025 YiLKKK
The room was very clean, the quality you would expect from an old palace hotel.
24.04.2025 Guest
Absolutely beautiful scenery! I will definitely book this hotel again next time

The hotel is very conveniently located, and most of Bern's famous attractions can be reached on foot. The hotel also thoughtfully prepared a day ticket for Bern's public transportation, which can be used unlimited times. The room was spacious and the scenery outside the window was beautiful. The reception was polite and enthusiastic. The guy who helped drive the car out also put two bottles of drinking water in the car. It was thoughtful.
