The hotel is in the city within short walks to the lake and downtown. The staff is very friendly and the rooms are simple but clean. Nothing fancy but good to stay. WiFi is for free with good access in the room. The only real drawback is the breakfast. The food is ok, but not much choice and a very... More

This is quite common hotel, 5 minutes on foot from the old center. Clean, basic rooms, xonfortable bed, tv, no fidge, small bathrooms. Breakfast was OK, but no eggs. If possible, ask for a room on the 6th floor facing the city - for nicer view. If you have to stay a day or two, this hotel would be quite... More

This 3 star hotel is one of my fall back options, when the Alpes et Lac Hotel near the station is full. For the those looking for rustic or olde-world charm, this is not the place for you. It´s in a 20th century appartment and shop block, situated at the edge of the Jardin Anglais. The lake is a short... More

I was here in Neuchatel for a meeting by the Centre Suisse d'Electronique et de Microtechnique and I really appreciated my staying in this hotel, a pitty that I could stay there only for a couple of days, Neuchatel is an amazing place, with a great view on the lake and the Alps. The rooms were very clean, and the... More

Stayed in room 409, which is at the street side. Windows open, a bit of noise but not enough to keep one awake. This is a large room that can sleep 4 (2 on sofa bed). Hardwood floors! Friendly and English speaking receptionists. Small elevator only holds 3 people at the time (without luggage that is), but there are two... More

Hotel des Arts provides all the basic requirements one would need for a short break. Room on top floor was small but lovely, so was the bathroom(shower) although it would be too hot for summer. however this did not cause us any problems since we did not spend so much time in the room. there was not much of a...

We arrived late at night, and our first our impression was positive. The hotel is well located, only 2 blocks from the cable car to the railway station. The receptionist was very friendly and helpful. Decor is nice -- original signed prints. Breakfast the next day was very good. But after that it was downhill all the way. The room... More

This is your basic hotel, not much more than a Holiday Inn or the like. Do not expect much, but by Swiss standards, this is a reasonably priced hotel. We stayed here in mid-July with kids. The room had a nice view of the lake. The breakfast was adequate (free board). It was still not very warm, so the lack... More

Stayed at this hotel over a weekend in early August 2012. We were given an "attic" room on the 6th floor which we knew was going to be a problem the minute we walked in as it was like an oven! Whilst the room was exceptionally clean and perfectly adequate. The solitary, free-standing fan in the room simply didn't help... More

Good spot well located. Staff are friendly, the rooms are clean and breakfast was better than the standard fare in this type of establishment. Rooms are relatively expensive but we came when the film festival was on. Wasnt able to check in earlier unlike other reviews and we were on the 6th floor with no noise issues. Do get a... More
