Beautiful location with views over Berne and the Alps...great walks ...Bantiger Tower, a ½ hour walk away, is worth climbing for amazing views to the Alps and the Jura as well as Berne and the Seeland

Stayed in August 2025

A bit inaccesible from Bern (must hike up or hire taxi to reach the accomodation from Stetllen)

Loved the view & staff was very friendly.

Lack of public transport

The ambience

Stayed in July 2025

Self checkin when arrive late, 10pm, in the dark. At first was difficult to find the keybox, although located in front of hotel but very dark, recomendation for the owner to leave a light switched on neaar the keybox or install a sensor light. Then the entrance is a door on the right side. In general is is an older hotel, but clean. Do not expect any luxery. Ventilator in bathroom, room 5 did not switch off, luckely I always have earplugs when traveling.

Scenic view over the mountains Outside Bern, but still close to the city Parking Cappuccino and good breakfast (but quality of bread could be better) Good bed, relatively new matrass, I slept well. Reasonable price, as most hotel in Bern are expensive and parking here was free.

Price and room was simple but perfect for what I needed.

Not a fan of shared bathrooms but there was a sink and the shared shower and bathroom areas were spotless clean.

Breakfast was good with a nice selection of bread, meat and cheese and a boiled egg. Juice and cappuccinos were good. View from the room was of the rural area all the way to the mountains. Nice quiet location with GREAT free parking. Dining room was nice and comfy and a good hang. Plenty of menu choices and the prices were good.

The room is a bit worn out. The breakfast is too basic, clearly not enough. No elevator. Check-in took a long time: they couldn't find the reservation.

Good value for money. Beautiful view from the window of nature, Bern, and the mountains. The room had many windows, covering an entire wall! If you have your own transport, it's relatively close to Bern. There is a restaurant downstairs.

no complaints.

With regard to transport to arrival. I flew from YUL Montreal to Geneva GVA took a train from GVA to Bern Train Staition. Then took a car from Bern Train Station to the hotel Aplenblick. Easy as pie. THe veiw is excellent, quite, surrounded by farms and cornfields. BUT lterally 15 minutes from Bern. I choose to have breakfast included which turned out to be a very good choice.

All was fine totally. If it happens we would love to stay there again. We liked them.

This place is dreamy. Very clean. The staff were very professional, attentive, and friendly. Breakfast was perfect and well-served. They were Very respectful. They have a coffee-bar/ restaurant serving very delicious but a bit expensive food and ice cream. View was amazing and very beautiful. The neighbours also all kind and greeting.

Mosquito nets at the windows will be an excelent improvement to the room. 2 extra towels and soap/shower gel to both sink and shower

Location is amazing!

The location in the rural village overlooking the fields and valley below was beautiful. The location was so quiet and peaceful.

Our bathroom's light was broken. Staff members brought brand new bulbs, but the problem was the fixture, so we had to shower and use the toilet with the door open and with our phone flashlights. The hike to the property was mostly on narrow roads with no sidewalks, which felt dangerous. The messages on booking.com were not monitored on the weekend.

The staff were incredible. Although very few speak English, all of them went above and beyond to make our stay as comfortable as possible. The rooms (and the entire place) were perfectly clean, the views are absolutely stunning, and the restaurant has high quality food. Stettlen is a gorgeous town, and some of us enjoyed the 2km uphill hike from the train station. We were quickly provided with extra pillows, blankets, and towels, and they even let us use their laundry.

Our room was a store room for furniture without any suitable lights, the bed had not sheets, just a mattress cover. The food was deep fried, the breakfast was presented on one plate, no choice given. We left after 1 night, we had been booked in for 2 nights.

The hotel had great views, but that is the end of the good news

The views, the traquillity and the staff were amazing knowing lots of important languages.

It was a perfect place in a wonderful place with absolutey exception staff. The pride of Switzerland.

Stayed in October 2023

Unfortunately, the stay itself wasn't very pleasant and the list of things, that did not meet my expectations is long: - no wifi password available -> need to ask staff for it, so it was entered in my phone instead of handing me over any type of password for my devices. - wifi stability was very bad, one bar or nothing. The only way to use it was by walking around in the room - noisy room, you can hear anything that is happening in front of the window, guests are eating till late at night and its never quiet, neighbor's room was very talkative until late at night (2am). - no towels available in the room - no room service or cleaning ( I stayed several nights and no one came by to clean to room, or take garbage out) - very lovely looking lights in front of the window, unfortunately, no blending curtains to make the room dark, so the lights were annoying - lots of mosquitos in the room due to no protection in front of the window (and the lights in front of it). That was a real issue since it was super hot (above 30 degrees) and there was a need to open the window, which meant a thousand mosquito bites. This I will remember for quite a while now ... - breakfast times are only from 7-9 - no buffet for breakfast, no free choice of food, instead you will be served a plate with their choice of cheese and meat and bread. Never had flatbread for breakfast nor the choice to choose any type of bread. Unfortunately, I am vegetarian and got lovely looking meat on my plate, which is not nice and not appreciated at all. Three different choices of meat, three pieces of cheese and a very jam. A man might have not been satisfied with this little amountof food. - the bed is very hard and I had not one restful sleep in it - you have to walk through the restaurant to get to your room. There was a side door, which I only found by accident because I was wondering why I got 2 keys. The staff did not mention it.

The Gasthof has an amazing location, almost on top of a hill, the view is just incredible, you can see the Alps in such a wonderful way, I really liked it a lot. The staff is friendly. The room and bathroom facilities were very clean. Especially the shared bathroom was unexpectedly clean. I believe it was cleaned more than once a day, which was really appreciated. Even though the list is long with things that did meet my expectations and I would not consider staying here again, please note that the staff was very friendly and nice. And it is for sure a nice place for a shorter term, e.g. for a night.
