Top Bern Hotel Reviews

Hotel Schweizerhof Bern & Spa

Hotel Schweizerhof Bern & Spa

10/10 Excellent
"The hotel is right by the station which is very handy for a multi centre holiday and it is very central for everything you may want to do in Bern. The staff were very helpful and pleasant. The roof terrace is beautiful and the rooms are really well equipped really comfy beds and brilliant showers. We didn’t eat at the restaurant so can’t comment on that, breakfast was 40 chf per head which seemed a lot so we used local cafes instead. There was also a 200 chf deposit per night … we were there 3 nights and had 2 rooms so 1200 chf and that was unexpected and seemed steep but it was returned within a couple of days of us leaving- something to be prepared for from a cashflow point of view."
