Fantastic

Andy Couples - 16/09/2021 Confirmed reviews ALL

Novotel has a very good standard - and you can count on it no matter where you go. The Bern Novotel Expo is probably even a level above that. A free minibar,, a great room and very efficient and friendly staff. You can not complain at all. We used the hotel as our base for excursions in the area and it was the perfrect spot. Free public transport brings you quickly to the city centre of Bern and with the car you are quickly in other great sight seeing locations. After a long day out it felt great to relax in the hotel in the evening! Thank you Novotel!

Grüessech Mr. D. WOW, we are speachless! Thank you so much for your evaluation of 100 points and for the great feedback! Our staff is trying their best each day to properly fulfill all needs from our guests, so your experience is a positive one in your collection box of great moments. We would be really happy to welcome you another time at the Novotel in Berne! Stay safe, with kind regards, Selin - Reception

Good location

Anonymous Families - 13/09/2021 Confirmed reviews ALL

Easy booking on the phone, smooth check-in and a great family offer when you need more than 1 room. The room was spacious and it had everything we needed. The things we didn't like were the smell of the carpet and the drainage in the bathtub.

convenient but not great

M. Business - 09/09/2021 Confirmed reviews ALL

well located staff is friendly breakfast is great but the quality of the beds is poor

Always a good experience

thaller2021 Business - 31/08/2021 TripAdvisor review

The Novotel Bern is located at a very central location at Guisan Platz next to the Expo location. The service in the Novotel is always very good. Room Prices are very acceptable. For a location in the heart of the town Bern ! Not to forget, the Restaurant and Bar are excellent too ! All in all a very good experience !

Great located hotel, nice staff, great breakfast

Alex B. Families - 30/08/2021 Confirmed reviews ALL

Great hotel near the expo in Bern. Room was a decent size though could be modernised a bit. TV especially could be updated. Bathroom was pretty good with both a bath and a shower and separate toilet. Restocking of supplies in the room could be better, e.g toilet paper. Staff were very friendly and breakfast was excellent. Located right by the number 9 tram stop for quick easy access into Bern.

Dear Mr.B. Thank you very much for taking the time to share your feedback. We are happy to hear that you appreciated our convenient central location. I would like to apologize for the fact that the items in the room were not replenished properly. This is not the service we strive to provide. I have shared your feedback with our Housekeeping Manager to prevent future occurrence. Hopefully you will visit us again. Kind regards, Jessica - Novotel Bern Expo

Good location, close to bus stop and walking distance to the heart of Bern.

Dear Mr. A. Thank you so much for taking the time to evaluate your stay and for grading it with a perfect score of 100!

Dear Oscar, We are glad to read, that you had a wonderful experience at our hotel and we appreciate you sharing your thoughts for our future travelers. We hope you will come back soon. Your Novotel Bern Expo Team

Not that good as last year

NuriaVila 22/08/2021 TripAdvisor review

We chose the hotel as have been here last year and we love it. But this time the pillows were really hard and old (one of them was like 2 parts!) and we didn't sleep really good. We were a family of 4 and all of us had the same problem. Pillows are one of the important thing in hotels as you go there to sleep.

Dear NuriaVila, Thank you very much for taking the time to write a review about your stay on Tripadvisor.com. Your opinion is very important and valuable to us. We appreciate your feedback and will use it to evaluate changes and make improvements in our hotel. We hope to welcome you again very soon! Kind regards and all the best to you, Your Novotel Bern Expo Team with Javier Iglesias

A nice surprise

Stefan D. Families - 17/08/2021 Confirmed reviews ALL

Having the Circus Knie right next door surprised us with a wholly unexpected experience to take home with us. Thank you for providing the stay! The only thing I would love to see is a bit more variance on the fruits & vegetables during breakfast - I think at the asked rate, this should be possible.

Dear Mr. D., thank you very much for taking the time to write a review about your stay with us. Your opinion is very important and valuable to us. We will share you Feedback regarding fruits and vegetables with our F&B Manager to improve our Breakfast diversity. Always inform us immediately if something is wrong. We are truly sorry to recognize that your experience did not fully meet your expectations, however we hope that you've enjoyed your stay in Bern and we would be very happy to welcome you again.

Anonymous Families - 17/08/2021 Confirmed reviews ALL

We stayed for 2 nights and were very happy with the location, fairly close to city center, Rosengarten and circus Knie. The entrance is very beautiful and breakfast was good. We were a little disappointed with the room, found fake eyelashes in my sons bed sheet. But overall great experience

Dear Mr. D., Thank you for your visit and for the great feedback, we are happy to share this with the team. We would like to apologize for inconvenience that happened in your room, we will inform our Housekeeping Staff. We wish you the best in all your future travels.

Nice stay

Anonymous Families - 08/08/2021 Confirmed reviews ALL

Everything was OK, some small issue that I requested to change over the phone, was quickly sorted out on arrival and check-in. All crew and services were very good. The room was OK but the is relatively small for 2 adults and 2 children. Also, the Sofa bed is not very comfortable.

We are glad to hear, that your issues could be fixed fastly and that our staff left an helpful and friendly impression on you. We are aware of the situation and the conditions of our facilities and are excited to inform you, that we are currently planing a total renovation.

HOTEL CLOSED DUE TO CASES OF CORONA INFECTION - SO DID NOT STAY AT YOUR HOTEL

M3560PWinfo Business - 11/09/2020 TripAdvisor review

one day prior to my stay at the novotel, i received a phone call from your staff explaining that the hotel was closing down for 2 weeks due to corona infection cases. the lady was so kind to get me a room at another hotel not too far away. that hotel as well as the room and the service were very good. unfortunately, i'll have to wait for your hotel to reopen and for another business trip to be necessary before being able to deliver any evaluation or feedback. thank you

Hei M3450PWinfo, thank you very much for your feedback on the situation we were into. AND, that you are so comprehensive and willing to visit us soon again! You're rating is unfortunately made with a 1* - and honestly - I think you did not want to do so among your wording. We would be very glad in case you could remove or modify this. We are very looking forward to welcome you very soon again (as from the 15.09.2020, we're back in the game)! All the best Matthias and team

sanderluijten Business - 19/06/2020 TripAdvisor review

perfect and accurate - swiss performance - as usually well organized and good performance. good location close to the city and the free public transport card is very good and convenient to use as the tramway stops in front of the Novotel.

Hey sanderluijten, you deserved a big and loud "thank you"! Even if we could not provide all services as usual due to the Corona-Regulation, you provide us such a nice mark. It's the very best motivation for our crew. We would be glad to welcome you again in future. Let us know in case we can do something for you. Take care and have a great summer time. The team with Matthias, General Manager
