Very nice hotel but there were no windows worth a mention. There was one for namesake that looked into a covered utility area that did not let in any light. So close that others could peer into your room. Had to keep the window closed.

Location is excellent, tram stop right out the front door, and Marketgasse shopping in an easy walk. The room is very comfortable with luxurious amenities, nespresso in room. We paid for the breakfast, which is costly, but the best breakfast we enjoyed anywhere on our trip! Bern is a lovely city many travelers miss.
