This hotel is very much a boutique hotel. No elevator or air conditioning but still a very nice and clean room. The decor is shabby chic and bedding is comfortable. The included breakfast is not as much as we have had at other hotels during this trip but a quick yogurt and coffee and croissant does the trick. The staff was very friendly and even took our bags up to our room for us. FYI the parking is not real sat either which was nice.

Staff provided excellent support and instructions for after hours check in since we arrived late by train. Room was sparse and warm as it was on an upper floor, but after windows were open, it cooled off substantially. Balcony was a real highlight. Location was great but not amazing. Fan was provided in advance. My only complaint was breakfast. Honestly, it was substandard. It consisted of a small plate of meat and cheeses, a small selection of yogurts and breads. Small selection of Fruit was available. Only egg option was boiled eggs that had to be prepared by yourself in a machine that took 10 minutes. Even by our European standards, it was probably the poorest of all our breakfasts.

Lovely place and location. The lady who greeted us was very welcoming and friendly, and we were able to check in a couple of hours early, just having to wait a short while as they got it ready for us. I recommend spending the tiny bit extra for the balcony - it was nice sitting out there on a warm evening

A very pleasant stay and excellent service.

A very pleasant stay and excellent service. We were initially concerned about the lack of private parking, but the nearby covered public parking is very close, and the hotel offers a discount for it. The absence of air conditioning was not an issue thanks to the use of fans and ventilators. The location near the city center and the beautiful view of the castle made our stay even more special.

A wonderful rehab of an old building - modern and clean with an unexpected but welcoming Tex-Mex theme! The employees were all great and the dinner options were excellent. The included Continental breakfast was OK but somewhat limited. We would definitely stay there again and budget more time to explore the city.

Loved this gem of a hotel! Our "family room" was perfect for the 5 of us. The room and bathroom looked very newly renovated and the beds were quite comfortable. It was also in the perfect location for our one day and night in the beautiful city of Thun. I especially loved the hostess's recommendation for places to swim and bridge jump.
