Spent two night at the Hotel Amaris on business The hotel was spotlessly clean , the room was comfortable and had a huge bathroom All staff were friendly and helpful Right next to the mainline railway station and 5 minutes walk from the old town make it an ideal base to explore the area. Zurich and Luzanne less then an... More

The hotel is about 75m from the underpass to enter the station. It is an excellent location if you have a swiss pass or eurailpass to travel quickly into Zurich, Basle or Berne with about 3 trains an hour to each. The front rooms in the hotel overlook the station and rail tracks. The room we had at the back... More

This hotel is literally a stone's throw from Olten train station. You can watch the busy station in action whilst having breakfast and also from some of the rooms on the front of the hotel. Clean and functional my room on the 3rd floor was rather sparsely furnished. I had a good nights sleep as the double glazing kept out... More

I was attending a trade exhibition in Switzerland and wanting to be close by the station for easy access, chose the Amaris. My train left on platform 11 and it was about a two minute walk from the hotel to the platform. The room was terrific, with a good shower room and it overlooked the railway station. With the windows... More

I loved the Hotel Amaris in Oftringen just behind the Train station. Small Hotel with nice Breakfast. Rooms are clean and quiet. Hotel bar is frequently visit by locals and stuff is excellent.

Strange but true: this hotel that practically sits on a railway track is soothing, calming and very easy on the eye. In my first fifteen minutes of looking around, it struck me that it would not look out of place in the 7th arrondissement in Paris – only with twice the space of the average room in a boutique hotel...

This hotel was recommended to me by a business colleague who had stayed here 12 months earlier. I was pleasantly suprised with the inside of the hotel as the area around the hotel is not very appealing. The check in was handled quickly and I was very happy with the size and amenities of the room itself as I was... More

Newly renovated hotel with bar on ground floor was just fine. It's but 50m from Olten station, with excellent connections all over Switzerland (Berne, Lausanne, Geneva, Interlaken, Zurich, Luzern and Basel). We upgraded ourselves to the Superior Suite, which was huge and not too expensive. The breakfast was standard Swiss fare with a good range of cheeses, hams and jams.... More

I come here once a year on business. The hotel is very near to the station (which is both an advantage and a disadvantge) and offers basic accommodation. Breakfast is adequate. The hotel provides what I need - a bed and a breakfast but no frills - at a reasonable price for Switzerland.
