For me that was a complete dealbreaker, and despite the nice vibe and the good service, I would not stay at the Emmental again.Secret Weapon: Makes hidden weapon almost impossible to detect. A poor night of sleep is seldom a good way to start a hike. Soundproofing within the hotel is also poor, I could hear my neighbours talking, water flowing, people walking. ![]() You're right beside a roundabout, forget about sleeping with the window open (as I usually do), even when it's closed you can hear the noise from the street, which is not nice "city life" noise but cars driving around. Second, and more importantly is the noise. I usually stay in hotels in this price category or cheaper when I'm hiking, I'm a bit underwhelmed to say the least. Firstly I can't really see the value for money when the hotel I stayed at the following night offered a much nicer, more comfortable room for 3.00 CHF more. Why then, the not so good rating? Two things. The whole place has a quaint atmosphere that I thought was quite charming, not really hostel but not your average hotel feeling either. They are really nice and I can't complain about service. The two ladies manning the restaurant seemed to be in charge of the whole thing. I missed a good bircher, some cut fruits, more local cheese and less indutrial jams, but the coffee was good and the bread was excellent. ![]() Breakfast was more "average" than what I'm acustomed to from hiking in Switzerland, but not bad. The restaurant is good, I only had dinner there once but the burger was tasty and they had local beer. The reception itself seems to be mostly unmanned, I checked in at the restaurant and checked out by leaking my key in a box. The hotel offers free tea and coffeee (Nespresso) in the lobby area by the reception, that's a really nice touch. Also, I never found out how you can switch on the light on the night table (an old chair, I liked the touch). The only one I could find was high on the wall together with the light switch by the door. One BIG design flaw in the digital age is the lack of (convenient) electric plugs. The bed was too soft for my taste, but I like really firm mattresses. The room also had a small balcony with a view of the castle. The design is modern and impersonnal, there are a few stains and scratches on the wall (not the type that can be washed, the type you need to paint over). ![]() I didn't like the room perfume sticks as I'm quite sensitive to smell I also noticed a humidity smell from the wc/shower room, maybe the sticks are to cover that. My room was ok, it was clean and functionnal. In retrospect I should have chosen a hotel in the old city, which would have given me a bit more time to wander around before leaving. The location isn't bad, but it's at the opposite of town with regards to the path. I booked a single room for one night in order to be able to start the hike around to Thunersee not too late in the morning. But it was just not the right place for me. I would love to say I liked this hotel, because it has so much to offer. ![]()
