Review summary

Based on recent reviews

Ibis Styles Bern City is often described as modern and clean, providing a comfortable experience for guests, with a decent breakfast that includes sufficient choices. The hotel provides convenient access to the city center and public transport, with some guests mentioning the availability of free public transport tickets. water dispensers with sparkling water are available on each floor, which is appreciated by many.

loved the stay!

good breakfastregular serviceawkward design

breakfast offered many choices and tasted very good! the room was stylish and included a triangular en-suite. the bus and tram were easy to transfer to with very regular service, i appreciate the convenient public transport.

The toilet door had a big gap between the door and the wall. This provided no privacy at all. you could see the person sitting on the toilet and there was no sound proofing, it was a very awkward design.
