Book Bern hotels online(With our partner Venere)

You’d be fortunate to find a double room at any of the inexpensive hotels listed below for less than Fr.100 a night, and decent places start from around Fr.140. Location is only an issue around the train station, which can get a little noisy in the morning rush hour; elsewhere, the only sounds likely to disturb you are footsteps and the occasional tram bell. None of these is more than ten minutes’ walk from the train station, or a couple of stops on a tram.

City
Geared towards a hurried business clientele, with slick, futuristic designer interiors. Seconds from the train station and not at all bad. Street-side rooms are marginally noisier.

Glocke
Simple, inexpensive rooms benefiting – like the Goldener Schlüssel nearby – from a perfect location. Slightly the cheaper of the two, though, and marginally worse value. Rooms with en-suite bath or shared facilities are adequate, but small and unremarkable
Rathausgasse 75

Goldener Schlüssel
Comfortable place on a quiet Old Town street, with efficient, pleasant service. Simple, spacious rooms are very clean, mostly en-suite but with some good-value shared-bath rooms up under the eaves.

Landhaus
The most attractive budget rooms in town, in an historic, renovated building (with spiralling wooden stairs but no lift) overlooking a curve in the river. Spacious, modern design prevails throughout, with en suite or shared facilities, and some rooms have floor-to-ceiling windows and balcony.
Altenbergstrasse 4

Marthahaus
Best all-round value. A characterful building on a quiet cul-de-sac a few minutes out of the Old Town, friendly, well run and cosy. The few shared-bath rooms have sinks, and both the en-suite and hallway bathrooms are newly renovated and spotless. Free kitchen use, and winter and long-stay discounts. If it’s full, negotiate crashing out in the TV room (around Fr.35). Bus #20 to Gewerbeschule (direction Wyler).

National
Something of an institution, with a restaurant, theatre and – up above – a hotel occupying a lovely old building on an atmospheric tree- and tram-lined street. The ancient wooden lift rattles you up to characterful, renovated rooms with big windows and wood floors; some are en suite, all have modern facilities.
