Nice hotel, extremely well located downtown Neuchâtel, with easy parking and minutes away from the funicular and train station. I have never seen hotel staff this dedicated to their guest's comfort. Amazing team who went the extra mile on everything that made us feel so welcomed. Will definitely go back.

I loved my stay here. From first stepping through the front door, the staff were very friendly and welcoming. The lovely light filled room was very spacious, clean and comfortable. The shower was wonderful and spacious. The hotel is perfectly located just near the funicular down the hill from the station. Making it very easy to access. It is near the boat harbour for ferries, the museum and a quick and easy walk to the old town. I regret that I only had one night here. I would definitely recommend it.
