The Hotel Goldener Schlussel is located very conveniently in the center of old town Bern. A tram from the train station stops nearby and you are very close to many of the sights in Bern. My room was okay in size with a reasonably comfortable bed. The bathroom was strange as the previous reviews mention. However, there's plenty of room... more

Hotel in good location and room was a decent size. My sister and I rather liked the funky bathroom which was incorporated into the main bedroom. Beds were very comfortable. The only downside was the noise as we were positioned in a room overlooking the main entrance where there were at least two to three bars (we could not close... more

I stayed at this hotel for 3 nights recently and I chose it after doing a lot of research. The location is excellent; walkable to the Hauptbahnhof with tram stops one block away. Munster Cathedral and the Zytglogge are very close by. Overall we had a good experience. On arrival we were given a tiny room with a large window... more

Lots of research led me to this hotel. Price was a little more than I'd expected but I guess it's on a par with other hotels in relatively expensive Bern. The hotel is very easy to get to from the railway station; no need for transportation since it's a flat 10-15 min walk. My room was very contemporary with a... more

After running trough the whole city of Bern and checking out the several Hotel in decent star rating (3-4* ) the Goldener Schlüssel was the last on the list. We where lucky that the owner of the Hotel was at the reception and he was able to make us an incredible offer ! we felt welcome at once, we did... more

The personnel has been very kind and made the reservation process easy and effcient. They asked me my arrival time, I arrived about 30 minutes before and the room was already cleaned and ready. My room was a standard double room: it is not big, but is large enough if you are willing to spend most of the day enjoying... more

We stayed at this hotel for one night in the summer of 2008 and it was perfect for Bern. Pros - very cool, modern, and unique rooms (see photo - I've never seen a bathroom like that!) - good location - comfortable and quiet - excellent breakfast at the hotel's own restaurant Cons - nothing comes to mind I enjoyed... more

The best is the location, the worst is the small rooms. Take a normal hotel room and place a cupboard that takes up 1/3 of the room: that is a platic and glass cage with your shower and toilet. The rest leaves just place for a bed and a minute desk. On the other hand the place was clean (this... more

Stayed in the hotel one night. The hotel was recently renovated and the price was pretty decent- less than 200CHF. Hard to find a decent hotel in Bern around that price range sadly. We chose the hotel since it got pretty good reviews, good location, and the recent renovation. Good: Rooms were clean, staff friendly, flat screen TV in room... more
