Reviews and Ratings
I absolutely loved my stay at this hotel. The rooms were beautifully spacious, tastefully decorated with traditional furnishings, and had the added touch of our bed being turned down every night. The view from the balconies, overlooking the river and distant alps, was truly breathtaking. The service was top-notch with knowledgeable and friendly staff. The location was superb, within walking distance to key attractions and offering a stunning view of the Aare river. The dining experience was delightful, especially the breakfast buffet. The facilities were excellent, enhancing my overall experience.
The hotel exceeded my expectations with its clean and very comfortable rooms. The staff was incredibly accommodating and professional. The location is superb, nestled along the picturesque Aare River, making it easy to explore the charming Bern. The dining experience was fantastic, offering a great selection of delicious dishes. Overall, a wonderful stay with great value for money.
I had a delightful stay at the hotel. The rooms were spacious and well-equipped, complete with complimentary water, a fruit tray, and local chocolates. They were not overly large but clean and had every amenity I could need. The service was exceptional, with the staff being incredibly welcoming and friendly, always going the extra mile to ensure I had everything I needed. The location offered a beautiful view of the Aare river, allowing for leisurely walks to various attractions in charming Bern. The dining experience was delicious, and the facilities were top-notch. However, the price could have been better, and the dining value was a bit lacking.
After a wonderful stay at the Palact for a special birthday celebration, I found the hotel to excel in room comfort and size, superb service, an ideal city center location, and delightful dining options. While the facilities were impressive, there were a few minor drawbacks.
