I was impressed by the level of service and cleanliness. The room was a good size and very comfortable. It's shower area was small but the doors closed properly, unlike idenitcal showers in other, recent hotels, so the floor kept dry. Thankfully, they had plenty of Euro>Swiss power adaptors and were able to lend me one.

No tea/coffee facilities in the room. The breakfast was unspectacular. The area around the hotel isn't the most 'alive', quite industial and a far cry from the beauty of Fribourg old town

Upon my arrival the receptionist was really nice. She let me charged my phone twice really nice staff. The room was clean I didn’t expect a studio so that went above my expectation. Very impressed The bed was extremely comfortable The shower , toilet was impeccably clean The hotel looks nice around. The breakfast was extremely yummy. I loved the quality of the bread. Small options but it was ok. I would have loved fried eggs etc Shame the restaurant was closed I’d definitely come again !

breakfast could have More options Like fried eggs

Close to the train station, easy instructions if the reception is closed, very clean and quiet room. The staff answered messages quickly. No air conditioning, but there was a fan in the room

The door to the bathroom didn't close properly, but as I was by myself that was not an issue. The door to the room was surprisingly difficult to unlock.

This hotel is not luxurious but has an excellent staff, is very clean and well maintained, the rooms are simple and perhaps a little gloomy, but excellent value for money. The restaurant is very good.

I have stayed here many time before, and will stay many more times in the future. It is perfect for my needs. Staff particularly friendly and helpful. The view from the rooms is not great.

Very friendly and helpfull stuff. The bed is extremely comfortable. Facilities are okay, reception and restaurant is quite modern and nice but overall it’s a bit an outdated building with small elevators. But you really can’t complain at this price. The room was clean, quite at night and perfect for a one night stay. I would recommend this place for a quick visit in Fribourg if you want the best service for your money.

Entrance is a bit weird, you first enter through a staircase and wouldn’t really expect a hotel reception there.
