About this property

Hotel & Bistro Pêle-Mêle enjoys a central location in Bern, a 5-minute walk from the Old Town and 200 metres from the well-known Bear Pit. This family-run hotel offers individually decorated rooms and its own restaurant. All rooms come with free Wi-Fi and a TV, and most also feature private shower facilities. Some have shared-use bathroom facilities. A breakfast buffet is available on site. You can also sample homemade sweets at the Landhaus and during summer, a terrace awaits you. The hotel offers views of the Aare River. A grocery store and the nearest tram stop are all a 1 to 2-minute walk away. As it is an older building it doesn't have a lift and the stairs are quite narrow. There is no air conditioning in the building.

Couples particularly like the location — they rated it 9.7 for a two-person trip.
