“Really good location, especially if you want a picturesque hour’s walk into Thun”
Great location, a couple of miles from Thun town. Lovely lakeside (mainly) walk into the town. Super views from the huge dining room windows. Free underground parking.

“Fantastic panoramic view and ease of getting to Thun on the bus made it worth the stay.”
The view was amazing,the room(208)was large and light,very clean but a little careworn.As a 3 star there was a couple of things missing,such as a kettle/coffee maker and the bottled water was never replaced nor the towels were changed during our 3 night stay.Which why it’s a 3 star,The breakfast was ok,we did not have dinner there because for us being vegetarians, we found better choice locally.

“Small hotel slightly off the shore but well worth visiting”
- the location is good - close to the lake but not directly at the lake - with a 5 min walk to the lake - the mattresses and pillows were very comfortable - the breakfast is of very very good quality - we ate like kings - special thanks to the breakfast staff lady for setting up a table of the terrace for us - we had a very special experience 🤍 - indoor parking available (shade was much needed!)

“Great views”
Nice location in Thun. The weather wasn’t great while we were there, but the views were still really beautiful. The room was very spacious and comfortable, though it could use a few more amenities. A coffee maker would have been a nice addition. Overall, a good stay.

“Lovely stay on Lake Thun”
A lovely hotel just off Lake Thun with friendly staff, great food and an enjoyable stay. The hotel is in good condition and the room we had was well equipped. Breakfast was continental buffet style and we had dinner there too, which was a bit more expensive vs nearby options but was worth it and the view you have is incredible. Would reccomend here and would stay again.
