Wonderful stay in Old Town Bern
This was our third stay in this wonderful, centrally-located apartment building over a 10-year period. Everything you could possible need in Bern is just steps away. The apartment is well-equipped and very comfortable, with all modern conveniences, despite the centuries-old historic setting. Rob and Sara are great hosts, ready to help with any questions and to ensure an enjoyable stay in Bern. Thanks for another enjoyable stay. Hope to be back soon.

Perfection!
I can't say enough positive things about this property. The location is perfect - walking distance to all the sights in old town, shopping, restaurants, and transportation. Despite this, the apartment was very quiet and cozy every night. The apartment is clean, airy, and very comfortable. There is also a lovely bakery next door that we visited almost every morning. Check in/out was a breeze and Rob was always helpful with assistance and suggestions. You can't go wrong with this property and my family hopes to return again!

A great place in a great location
This apartment was a great place in a great location. I can't say enough about staying in Bern old town, a block away from the Zytlogge clock tower and a few blocks from the main cathedral. Super walkable. The apartment's bedroom was dark and quiet through the night (if you close the windows, because cathedral bells, of course!). As I saw from the listing, the bathroom and kitchen are separated from the main unit by the stairwell, and while this was initially awkward, it also added a lot of ambience to the old European experience and ended up working out great in our routines. Owner was A+ communicative throughout the stay and all of the owner-provided info was well thought out. Would stay here again.

Host profile image
I am a Canadian born Swiss citizen and fourth generation to live in my family owned 500+ year old house in Bern's Altstadt. I live with my husband, Rob and our two kids on the fourth floor of the building. The rental apartment is located on the first floor so we are never far away should you need any help. We love meeting new people and sharing the beautiful city of Bern. We have been operating Bern City Rentals for 10 years.

Why they chose this property

It's truly a fantastic and special experience to stay in our apartments.

The LOCATION is absolutely amazing! We are right in the heart of the medievel old town of Bern. Our building is surrounded by restaurants, shops, museums. We host the twice weekly farmer's market in front of our building. Steps to transit and with your Bern Visitor Card, that transit is included!

Add to that, our own experience hosting travelers for more than 10 years gives you everything you need for a great holiday or work stay on Münstergasse.

What makes this property unique

Unique location in the heart of the old city close to everything you'll want to do and see like restaurants, museums, the river Aare, the Bundeshaus parliament buildnigs, the Zytglogge, the Bear Park and so much more!
