Best Western Plus Hotel Bern

This hotel is fantastic! It is the only hotel we stayed at out of 7 as we traveled across Switzerland that had air conditioning. Not only that, but the room was beautifully decorated, with herringbone floors, a modern design, and an ornate pale blue ceiling. It was a small room, but built-ins helped make the space flow efficiently. I’m not 100% sure what room type we were in. I’d booked a Boutique Room in the Annex, which per the description, said that it was not accessible via the main building. However, our room was definitely part of the main building, so I think we were in a different room type. Whatever it was, it was amazing! Our room had a fridge, safe, and fancy coffee machine (that took a few tries to figure out, even with instructions!). The bathroom was a good size and had a waterfall shower head and a lighted magnifying makeup mirror. We also had a balcony, with a charming view at the back of the building overlooking other beautiful historic buildings and rooftops (the entire old town is architecturally protected). The hotel is in a great location just a block away from the clock tower and a few minutes’ walk away from many restaurants and pubs. I loved that it has a Coop next door with an in-store restaurant. We had breakfast here each morning, and also ate a lunch and a dinner here. Super convenient and much more affordable than dining out in Switzerland! The other great thing about this hotel is that it has a beautiful rooftop bar. Note though, that when it is full the elevator will not let you go up. We tried this and wondered why we were pushing the elevator button for the bar, and nothing was happening. Eventually we went down to the front desk who clued us in. However, the receptionist overrode that and sent us up in the elevator to try our luck since we were hotel guests.

Very clean, modern, comfortable rooms where everything works well. Multiple channels on the tv which meant we could catch BBC One and BBC Two in real time when getting ready to go out. Friendly staff. Great rooftop bar! Easy (and flat) walk from the main train station (exit by the tourist information office to get the most direct route to the hotel). Location perfect right in the heart of the old town and close to shops, restaurants and main sights. The astronomical clock is only a street away!

We had suite which was big and very nice. The bed was comfy. The hotel is newly renovated. Location is just great. The staff was very helpfull and polite. Really nice. Parking in nearby parking house.

Its a very nice, modern hotel in the heart of the city! Spacious rooms, very well equipped and the bed was super comfortable!
