The hotel staff was excellent. The location of the hotel is perfectly placed in the old city easy to find and very close to the SBB train station. The rooms are beautifully updated. Have a very Swiss modern feel. I suggest getting a room on the front side of the hotel, preferably a higher floor.

We were upgraded, which was quite a nice surprise. Check in was very easy, reception was very friendly. Room was large, clean and the bed was very comfortable. Location was also very convenient to the train station but also shopping areas. Breakfast was the only criticism- the food was fresh but for the price, I would have appreciated a few more warm options.
