10/10 Excellent
"We stayed @ Kooook Bern City for 2 nights. What a treat! The location was excellent, within a 5-6 minute walk from the train station. The online app with access to the hotel, room and baggage area worked seamless. The hotel has a real "community" feeling with the spacious living room, games room, and kitchen area. The staff encouraged you to "use the space like your home". There was complimentary water, coffee and tea which is hard to find in Switzerland for no charge! They had a rooftop terrace with lots of comfortable tables and chairs. You can bring your own beverages up there to enjoy the spectacular views and sunsets. The staff were extremely helpful and courteous, especially Mattias and Michelle. They went out of their way to make sure your stay was enjoyable!! I would definitely recommend this hotel to anyone. Thank you for making our stay so special 😊"

"You can book, check in, and check out without ever speaking to another person… if that’s what you like, it’s great! We certainly missed the human contact. Otherwise, it’s a good place to stay. The fire alarm was triggered while we were here (no big deal, just an alarm), which isn’t a problem except the stairwell door wouldn’t open to the lobby without a key card even while the alarm was going off, which is pretty concerning considering a lot of folks didn’t have their keycard in their pyjamas at 22:00."
