Loved this hotel! Staff were very friendly, location was perfectly in the middle of the locations we were going to. Bus stops right in front of the restaurant attached to the hotel, and this same bus goes straight to the train station so public transportation is convenient. Despite not adding the breakfast option, coffee, tea, water, and umbrellas were available to all guests. Thank you for an awesome stay!

A top tier clean property with a very helpful and friendly staff in all departments. The attached restaurant had a good selection of items and the dining area had great seating and fountains. We will return if ever in this area again.

The property appears to be brand new, modern, and comfortable. The staff is very nice and helpful. It is not walkable from the railway station or from the town of Thun but there is a convenient bus that ends in a station opposite the hotel. It takes about 10-12 minutes on that bus to arrive from the railway station.

Careful! Surprise charges made! I made my reservation for a price and the charge increased. I contacted the hotel staff and the reason for the additional charge was not valid.

Not a serious hotel!
The Hotel didn’t send us the code to get in!
We called, passed by 3 times but there was nobody there and nobody answered the phone!! We could get in the building with another guest, it was 18:00 already!
After trying to call all the numbers using the telephone in the reception we finally reached a hotel employee. He came to help us and we could get in our room, it was 19:00!!
In the morning, when we complained in the reception the woman said they sent us the code twice. She also said we should know the reception is closed after 11:00! It was not their fault, we should know that!!
We said there is no excuse not to answer the phone during the hole day!
It’s unacceptable that nowadays a hotel just leaves the reception unattended and don’t answer their ‘contact phone’!!
She offered a CHF 20,- discount but we said it was not enough then we got a discount of CHF 40,-.
WE WILL NEVER STAY IN THIS HOTEL AGAIN!!!

2박 숙박
레스토랑 위주로 운영되는 호텔인데 호텔 관련해서도 직원들의 친절하고 빠른 응대로 2박 숙박 매우 만족스러웠습니다.
셀프체크인 방식을 처음해보았는데 젊은 사람들에게는 어렵지 않을 것 같고
룸 내부에 커피포트나 냉장고는 없었지만 로비에 잘 준비되어 있고 시설에 매우 깨끗합니다.

Die Unterkunft war gut, doch wollte ich mit Frühstück buchen was nicht geklappt hat. Dazu finde ich Ebookers nicht gut, was eben zum Beispiel Parkplatz und Früstück anbelant. Ebenso war der Preis zu hoch.
