Manager of the restaurant very rude

Customer review rating 0.5/5

Pietro Families - 30/04/2021 Confirmed reviews ALL

I had a reservation at the ibis hotel. When I arrived I went into novatel to ask where the IBIS entrance was and was told it was a bit far (later finding out it was just behind the building) and he updated my booking by moving to novatel as I had to additionally pay a fee of 60.- for the dog. The hotel furniture is dated and should be updated and the service not 4 star. I ate one evening at the hotel restaurant where I ordered a dish that I was unable to eat because of its unpresentable taste and appearance. I asked not to pay for that dish that I didn't even touch and the manager was very rude starting to raise her voice as if to ask for the attention of all the people present at the tables who turned around. I do not recommend this hotel it would have been better to stay at IBIS.

Lovely location near the Wankdorf Stadium and Rose Garden

Anna Business - 29/03/2021 Confirmed reviews ALL

The star was o.k. I don't understand why I was given a room with neughbours considering the vast hotel and the many rooms available. I was travelling with my dog and we prefer a bit of peace and quiet. But no, I had to put up with noisy neighbours who watched TV all night and also very noisy cleaning in the morning. So overall satisfied but not really happy

Dear Ms. Läng, Thank you for staying with us and for your feedback and for reporting your concerns. We are sorry that your stay was not what you expected. If you are not satisfied with your room, we recommend that you contact the reception; as in your case with the neighbors, it is possible (depending on availability, and we had them that day) to change rooms. Or we will get in touch with the guests of the other rooms to bring silence into the hotel room. We hope you will visit us again, so we are able to serve you better. We are looking forward to it. Kind regards Jessica Novotel Bern Expo

Anonymous Business - 18/03/2021 Confirmed reviews ALL

The hotel looks good. The rooms are spacious and well equiped. It was nice to have a restaurant open. The food was great. It was a bit cold in the room though. And don't forget things like toothpaste or others because they will not bring it up to your room when you're in your underwear planing to brush your teeth. The phone in the room says there is room service but in fact there is none.

Dear Mr.G. Thank you very much for staying with us and for sharing your concerns. We really appreciate it, as the opinion of our guest is very important to us, in order to keep on improving our quality and service.I made a note that you'd prefer to receive your invoice by email instead of in paper form. Unfortunately we can not offer you any other option for another type of key cardat the moment. Kind regards Novotel Bern Expo

I enjoy staying in this hotel. The rooms are what you expect from a Novotel. Even in this current situation, the staff still give you a warm hello. You can eat breakfast and dinner in the restaurant. Other facilities are currently closed. The tram is a two minute walk and is free. This will take you to shops and restaurants within a few minutes. The Expo centre is across the road. Car park available

Dear Mr.P., Thank you very much for staying with us and for sharing your concerns.

Mariusz Solo - 15/03/2021 Confirmed reviews ALL

I had a good stay at this hotel. I was phrased to executive room as a platinum member. I asked for it to be changed to a larger corner room which was done without any issues. The breakfast was offered to me half price and it was very tasty. I enjoyed the hotel gym and restaurant and drinks and snacks that come free with executive room. The linens in my room were stained but they were replaced swiftly upon request. The location of the hotel was good- to Paul Klee Arts centre, great shopping mall and few tram stops from the old town. Recommended

Dear Mr. Przestrzrelski Thank you for taking the time to rate your stay at our hotel fairly. We really appreciate this, because the opinion of our guests is important to us so that we can continue to improve our quality and our service, as with the points you mentioned regarding the blankets. I am pleased that you enjoyed your stay with us in a unique location. We hope to see you again soon. Kind regards Jessica Novotel Bern Expo

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

TripAdvisor rating 1.0/5

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.

DanHeiter Couples - 01/01/2020 TripAdvisor review

Always great to come back to Berne and stay overnight in the Novotel Expo. Nice people and the rooms are very clean. Directly from the highway you are in few minutes at the hotel. From there to the center of Berne you can use the pass free of charge offered by the hotel with the tramway in 10 minutes.

Dear Guest Thank you very much for your review. We are looking forward to welcoming you soon again

Excellent hotel for a one night sleepover

TripAdvisor rating 4.0/5

frank h Family - 29/12/2019 TripAdvisor review

Known and reliable Accor-group quality. Free tramway tickets to discover the nearby beautiful historical centre. We found out too late that the bar and the hotel restaurant were closed on Saturday and Sunday. Finding a decent restaurant in Bern, open on Sunday evening, turned out to be a real challenge... When traveling by car, the hotel entrance is very difficult to find (we arrived after dark).

Dear Guest Thank you very much for your review. We are looking forward to welcoming you soon again.

Excellent

cbonsall Couples - 12/09/2019 TripAdvisor review

Everything I have come to expect with Novotel. Not exactly in a central location, but you receive a a Bern visitor card which gives you free public transport for 24 hours ... and the hotel is very near a tram stop. More expensive than many Novotels, but then this is Switzerland!
