“With a British-inspired design amid Bern's Old City, this hotel presents a stylistic twist alongside local charm. I noted the complimentary bicycle rentals as a standout for independently exploring the UNESCO-listed area and its central location provides easy access to key attractions and public transport. However, reports of maintenance issues and inconsistent service should be considered.”
