I stayed with my family for 2 nights. The rooms are not rooms but a sauna, it is exyremely hot, but since its winter just opening the window was the solution. The real problem was at night, IT IS JUST IMPOSSIBLE TO SLEEP due to the drunks screaming their souls out and to the trucks ( delivery trucks for a... More

Nice hotel in Bern City Center. Hall on first floor in one of the historycal building near the pedestrian area. lots of restaurant and shop nearby. The market plaza is 200 meters far and so other interesting sites. breakfast is average. hotel room are quite small and minimalist, but clean. some of them will need some repaint on the wall....

My wife and me were staying in this hotel for one night only, maybe we were lucky that having a room at the inner side facing to a garden, we found everything was reasonably good, clean and the breakfast was quite nice too. But we paid almoat CHF170 for a 3 star hotel then we consider this is too costly... More

I have to agree with many of the negative comments here. I stayed for four nights on business (Monday - Thursday) and had the misfortune to be given a room facing the street. The noise from the bars opposite went on until 0330 most nights but then the street cleaning started at 0415 and the deliveries to the various supermarkets... More

I booked 2 rooms (n. 201 and 202, one for my wife and me and one for our 3 kids of 14, 12 and 10 yrs old) at Hotel Continental in Zeughausgasse in Zentrum Bern. That is a three-star hotel in Zentrum-Bern for a cost of 195+15517 euros of tax so 367 CHF in total. The rooms were overlooking Zeughausgasse... More

Of all the hotels we stayed at in Switzerland on our trip, this hotel was the most basic we stayed at. It still has all the facilities you would expect and the location is very good. The room we had allocated was a strange arrangement, it would be the room on our floor that would be used as a fire... More

considered that It is quite difficult to find cheap hotels in bern. the Continental is positioned on the lower side of the price range for hotel with private bathroom and in the city center. It is situated in the old town, two minutes walking from the main touristic attractions. It is quite old and breakfast is not big but it... More

Having stayed at Paris before landing in Switzerland, I was already ready for a small hotel room. We chose Bern because the whole town is a World Heritage Site. We landed around 10pm. The city was already in its elements - very quiet, shops closed, and with dinner places all through our walk from the train station (yes, it is... More
