BRILLIANT HOTEL - Good Value and Clean

Easy to find the hotel. Very helpful staff. Local train line 50metres from hotel takes only 8mins to reach the town centre of Berne. Spotlessly clean very comfortable and worth the 75 Euros we paid for one night plus 8 Euros for the car park and 3 more for local tax. Didn't have breakfast. This was early October 2010.
