Best Hotel in Bern

Review of Bellevue Palace
5.0 of 5 bubblesReviewed Aug 31, 2024
An all-round wonderful stay: room with a great view, comfortable bed and large/modern bathroom. Plus the very friendly and personal service from the hotel team: from check-in to the restaurant and bar to check-out. Also, the location is super central, close to the train station and main sights.

Spent 1 night here as part of a Scenic river cruise tour. The hotel is absolutely beautiful. Our room was on the 5th floor in the attic but offered breathtaking views over the city and river. It was absolutely huge!
Our only disappointment was breakfast. The restaurant was extremely busy but the buffet was not particularly full even at the start. Ordering coffee seemed very problematic with 2 waiters struggling to deliver correctly. By the time I went for a croissant there was almost nothing left, save 2 or 3 tired looking pastries. This was at around 8/8.30 am yet no attempt was made to replenish the almost empty table.

My wife stayed in a suite overlooking the Aare river in 1984 while working for Tobler Suchard Chocolat in Bedford, UK who had a factory there at that time. Tender is the Night TV Mini Series was being filmed. Peter Strauss played Dick Diver and he was not happy doing re-takes on the carpeted staircase.

We were staying in Interlaken for two weeks and decided to have Afternoon Tea with Champagne on the Terrace at this grand Hotel. From the moment you step foot in this beautiful Hotel there is a feeling of quality and calm. The flower arrangements and decor are exquisite.

We proceeded to the Terrace and we were shown to a table near the back, although there were seats available nearer to the views of the river. We said we would like the Champagne first, and after a wait, it arrived. Then we had another wait for the sandwiches, etc. During this time a couple who were obviously staying at the Hotel walked in and sat directly behind us, talking loudly. There were other seats available but they chose to sit close to us.

The afternoon tea was expensive, but not unexpected in a Swiss Hotel of this calibre, but it was very disappointing. We have had much better Afternoon Teas in Cafe Concertos near Piccadilly, London.

We were not in a hurry, but there was a long wait for service, and they weren't very busy. Unfortunately, it was a disappointment but we still had a good experience and a feeling of deja vu for my wife after all those years.

A truly wonderful, historic and unique hotel located in the city center next to the parlament.
Staff was extremely friendly and the room was spacious and with a fantastic view of the river and the mountains.
Breakfast, both buffet and a la carte, quality was superb and the waiters were always attentive.
I will definitely come back.
A must visit if you come to Bern.

We spent two nights here prior to a Rhine River Cruise. The hotel is beautiful and located in the heart of the beautiful city of Bern. The room was nice, clean and the bed was very comfortable. Although our tour our tour didn’t include the highlights of Bern, we enjoyed exploring the city both mornings before our scheduled tours began. The only negative was that the breakfast buffet was just fair and service was slow.
