High Standard of Customer Service
We are seniors in our 70s and 60s visiting Switzerland for the 1st time. We reserved 1-night stay in Hotel National Bern thru Hotel.com then decided to use Bern as base to do day trips, but at last minute no more room available thru Hotel.com. We reserved additional 3 nights thru Hotel National’s web site. During checking-in, Lady Tanja at reception desk looked at our physical conditions and offered possibility of 4-night stay without changing room. There were difficulties of two reservations in different room categories. With the help of her colleague Lady Malwina, Tanja patiently spent time to comb thru options and later informed us that the difficulty was resolved and we would not need to change room during our stay. The two lady’s warm help to seniors represents the high standard of customer service of Hotel National’s Bern. We have also experienced great service in breakfast room and daily room cleaning. Thank you.

This city was so enchanting! One of my top 3 I visited. Traveling by train and bus I try to avoid Taxis. This hotel is located within close proximity to those. The staff was very accommodating and helped me more than once with the map and directions. They were gracious to hold my bags past check out until my train was ready to leave which gave me more time to site see without lugging my suitcases around. Very good English speakers so I was very comfortable,!

Broken table Broken sink Bed has No headboard No coffee No luggage rack Minimal furniture (one small wooden chair and one leather chair in a junior suite!) No shower cap, conditioner, lotion, and the only supply in the bathroom is a wall mounted body wash and shampoo (same bottle). That same wall mounted unit is also on the sink for hand soap. Club nearby with loud music Elevator only fits 2 people and doesn’t go to ground level without reception pressing something. It is a hostel not a hotel

This property has no AC , you have to keep window open when hot . But there is a busy street, below so hard to sleep with loud tram noise. They did move was to 4th floor from 2nd and away from street. But it was facing courtyard so no wind . Pretty uncomfortable in late July . Breakfast was ok . Lady who was host for breakfast was typical unfriendly Swiss . Reception girls speaks good English and were friendly. They do have portable AC but it was already booked . Location was very close to train station and they gave city transportation pass .

The hotel is just a few steps from the main train station. It’s at the centre of the city and access to everywhere is just easy. Although the hotel is old, it has been renovated and it’s very clean. The washroom/toilet is spotless clean as well as the linens. There’s no air conditioner but has a fan.
