Having been on a business trip in Thun, Switzerland, a colleague and I stayed at the Freienhof Swiss Quality Hotel. Having arrived in the middle of February in the snow covered city of Thun by car, we were at first a little annoyed to find that the underground Car Park, part of a small shopping complex and right next door...

It’s a very nice hotel in an immensely beautiful place. It‘s located right in the center of Thun, surrounded by the river and just in a walking distance from the railway station. The services in this hotel are excellent in all the aspects. As a tip: try to be accommodated in a room, the windows of which overlook the front... More

This is a nice enough hotel, well situated, close to the train station and the center of this small town. The reception area is small but functional and well presented, the staff on reception without exception were friendly, knowledgable, helpfull, and welcoming. The restaurant serves typically continental breakfast which was fine, and if weather permits can be taken in front... More

Dear Sir or Madam Thank you very much for your stay in our hotel and your detailed review. We are very glad that you enjoyed your stay. Unfortunately we can`t comprehend the allocation of your room. Perhaps you had a normal single room? The single rooms have a wonderful view to the river, but are the smallest rooms. The double... More

My five nights at the Freienhof Hotel in late May were perfect. The staff were amazing. Everyone seemed genuinely helpful and friendly, especially the young women at the reception desk. Special thanks to them. As noted by others, the hotel is an easy five-minute walk from the train station. I had originally reserved a single courtyard-facing room because, at the... More

Stayed here for a conference. conference facilities were good. Room was very small and basic, but nicely designed and very very clean (like the whole hotel and country). Breakfast was good. 5 minute walk from the train station. Wi-Fi prices are unreasonably high, which tilted me to 3 rather than 4 stars.

Thun was our second stop during a tour of Switzerland in June and wow what a place. I loved this town and the Freienhof hotel was brilliant.

Thun is a lovely, underappreciated Swiss small city at the end of the lake with a river flowing through it and a handsome castle. The architect that designed this hotel did a remarkable job of adding beautiful rooms with delightful views overlooking the river, surrounding them with a garden and linking them with the old Main building. If you like... More
