Chic Bern stay in the heart of the Old Town
NH Bern The Bristol, Switzerland

Property details
- Front and centre: Tucked away amidst the history of Bern’s Old Town, NH Bern The Bristol blends right in. Find the hotel in a gorgeous building from the early 20th century, just a stone’s throw from the main square of Bundesplatz. Inside, interiors mix industrial chic with British-inspired design elements to create a space that’s both modern and elegant, whilst outside you’ll find the patio terrace - perfect for people watching. Grab a seat in front of the hotel’s regal façade and sip a coffee or cocktail as you soak up the historic atmosphere.
- Good start to the day: Start your morning with a bountiful breakfast spread in the stylish lounge bar - enjoy pastries with a glass of fresh orange juice, load up your plate with local specialties, or feast on fresh fruit, cheeses and cold meats, ready for a day of discovering Bern. You can grab light bites here later on, or return in the evening for a signature cocktail or glass of wine before bed.
- Comfort and style: When you’ve finished your sightseeing, you can retire to your spacious guest room, where touches of tradition - like statement tartan walls and leather armchairs - join with all the necessary mod cons for an ultra-comfortable stay. If you’ve still got energy to burn, you can head to the hotel’s fitness centre; located on the upper floor, it boasts amazing city views that you can enjoy while working up a sweat on the state-of-the-art equipment.
