Got a last minute deal for a room here for two adults and a toddler and was pleasantly surprise. They were efficient at providing my request for a cot with mattress and bedding which was perfect for what we needed. The bathroom was spacious and everything clean. Only downside was the curtains were too small for the windows - there were shutters outside but we couldn’t shut them. The patio door was also broken but I informed them of this upon check out. Other than that it was a comfortable stay, especially for a last minute decision to stay in Olten on our last night in Switzerland.

A very basic hotel offering just the essentials reflecting the relatively low cost for Switzerland. Breakfast was convenient and reasonable. Hotel lobby is not very welcoming and rooms are somewhat aged but clean. Beds were comfortable.

Honestly got a 3 star property I wasn’t expecting much but it totally exceeded my expectations. The room wasn’t fancy but it was larger than I expected with a super comfy bed and great linens! The locations was perfect - like steps from the train. Plus the staff and breakfast served was so enjoyable.loved this place and highly recommend

Good hotel and good location

Room and bathroom very clean. Did not make use of any other facilities offered by the hotel. I chose this hotel because of its location next to the station. Had good nights sleep and it was quiet.

Friendly staff

Free parking, good breakfast. The layout is a little odd, as the hotel is split so by taking the stairs you cannot access your room. The elevator broke while we were there, but the repairs were being done promptly. Very friendly staff. Located next to the train station, but not noisy. Air conditioner worked great.

Ok but consider a few things

Good: Right next to station. Very good for train .helpful front desk . Consider : Rooms on front very noisy with trains 24/7 you may need ear plugs . Heating was just a n air con blower not a radiator so got cold over night and no spare blanket, etc in room and one one tiny pillow .
