I found the hotel in a fantastic location, just a short walk from the station and close to shops and restaurants, making it very convenient. However, the rooms could use some serious improvements as mine felt cold and quite run down. The service was hit or miss, with some staff being friendly while others were a bit rude. Overall, the hotel offers decent value for money considering the prime location, but be prepared for some drawbacks.

The room looked very run down and was furnished with an odd mix of items, feeling more like a cheap hostel. One of the heaters wasn't working, which made it really uncomfortable during my stay.

I had a mixed experience during my stay. The location is superb, right near Thun Castle and close to stores and restaurants. The room was spacious but unfortunately cold since the heater wasn’t working, and the lack of luxuries like proper curtains or a mini-bar was noticeable. The service wasn’t the fastest, which made interactions a bit frustrating. Overall, it’s a decent option but could use some improvements in comfort and service.

I had a mixed experience at the hotel. While the rooms were extremely clean and had a nice view, I struggled with the temperature, as it was colder inside than outside. The friendly staff made my stay pleasant, but the service was a bit slow at times. The location was great, close to stores and restaurants, making it easy to explore. On the dining front, breakfast had good options, but a few fresh choices would have made it better.

My stay at the hotel had its ups and downs. On the plus side, the location was fantastic, close to stores and restaurants. However, the room situation was quite disappointing – it felt cold, and the decor was a bit too eclectic for my taste. The service was also lacking, with some staff appearing rude. Overall, it had some great aspects, but it’s not ideal for a comfortable stay.

The hotel was in a great location, making it easy to explore the area, and the cleanliness of the facilities was impressive. The room was hot at times, and I missed having a fridge and tea/coffee making facilities. The service was a mixed bag; while some staff were helpful, others were quite rude, especially during check-in. Overall, it felt like decent value for the price, but improvements in service and room amenities could make a big difference.
