This hotel is a short walk from the town of Thun. The bus stops outside. The back of the hotel looks our on the lake with beautiful views. The service is top class without being in any way intrusive. Staff were friendly and professional. Bicyles and canoes were available free of charge. Lots of nice walks in the immediate area. Tea and Coffee is available all day in the foyer, also free of charge.

There was something quite restful and easy about the hotel. It was quite a change from most of the usual hotels which all look the same no matter where you go. Breakfast was the usual continental buffet with fresh scrambled eggs available on request. All served in the lovely dining room looking out on the lake. Lots of nice restaurants were within easy reach in town. Plenty of nightlife in town for young people.

The rooms were nice and clean with very comfortable beds. Most have balconies although mine didn't and I was a little disappointed.

The only real downside was that there was no air conditioning in the rooms and as the weather was very warm and we all found it difficult to sleep in the heat.

Pros:
-Located on the banks of Lake Thun with amazing views of the lake and the alps
-Exceptionally clean and new modern furnishing
-Very friendly staff from top to bottom, speaking Eng/Frenc/German
-Clean rooms, nice furnishings, very comfortable beds
-3 Free bottles of water and 2 juice in room per day, fresh fruit throughout hotel
-Has complimentary fitness/wellness spa for all guests*
-Included breakfast has a good spread of tropical fruit, juices, swiss cured meats, breads, pastries, cereals, coffee and tea
-Surrounding grounds are beside amazing, lake shore trails, rear balcony seats overlooking the lake
-Apparently wifi in room, never tried it.
-Excellent Restaurant. Good lunch buffet for about 30chf a person.


Cons:
-No air conditioning. In March, it was 75 degrees one day, and our room which faced the sun all day felt warm, but opening the windows cooled it down. We left it partially open at night since it got stuffy.
-Too far from downtown/train station to walk comfortably, but then it is the 2nd stop (Seepark) on the bus line 1 which leaves from the front of the train station. Multiple trips could be pricey

Hotel is on the pricey side, but it is worth it. Dining room's large windows give view to the panorama that is the Bernese Oberland. Also, the hotel fulfilled our room request as close as possible. There are technically no lakeview rooms, but they put us in one of the rooms where there is enough of a view of the lake and mountains on the balcony.
Appreciated that very much.

It is a conference hotel, and there were 2 different conferences during our leisure stay, but they were well run, and they didn't affect us one bit.

*The wellness spa is free, but it is "very European" meaning you're technically not supposed to wear your towels (or anything) in there (as the europeans are used to) so be warned.

Would come back and recommend to all our colleagues.

We held a conference and spent a good time. The view from the hotel (meeting rooms, but not all rooms to stay) is excellent, over the lake of Thun to the Swiss Mountains. The service is professional and helpful, the meeting facilities meet the expectaions. The rooms to stay are a bit small, but clean and correct. The location is close to the lake, therefore a bit remote and around half an hour walking to the city of Thun.

Brilliant hotel. Very friendly staff and excellent service. I would recommend eating at the hotel. The food was fabulous. Only minor gripe is that the rooms dont have aircon. But even in July that wasnt too much of a bother.

The hotel is right on Lake Thun and eating outside next to the lake is very romatic. Public transport is plentiful and its easy to get to Interlaken and the mountains from Thun.

I would recommend taking your car if you have children with you (or hire one). As my daughter was showing signs of travel fatigue on and off trains. She found it very boring.

Scenery was fabulous. Plenty of paces to visit (i recommend JoungFraue Peak, highest peak in europe.). Lots of great resteraunts.

Be warned, eating out in Switzerland is expensive.
