Great little spot and comfortable room right in the heart of Bern. The building looks old (as you'd expect in the historic district...) but inside is modern and recently refurbished. Breakfast was nice; I didn't get to really chat to any of the staff properly but they were friendly; and the location is great. Much more affordable than many other Bern/Switzlerand options, too. The pillow service is a fun idea.
The street below can get very busy and loud, but the window blocks this out almost completely; the trade-off is that with no aircon the room gets quite stuffy quickly in summer. A small fan is provided to help with this and it's not unique to the hotel but something to be aware of.

Warm welcome from the friendly receptionist. Very efficient and explained details of the free travel pass and how to connect to the WiFi. She was just as friendly and efficient at check out. A very clean room. A very comfortable bed, had a good night sleep. Surprisingly quiet room considering the busy street full of outdoor restaurants tables. Loved the walk in shower. Staff were very friendly at breakfast and asked immediately what beverage I would like to drink. Complementary continental breakfast provided a good tasty selection. Did not try the restaurant as I had other arrangements.
Nothing to dislike.

Central location, within a walking distance from the train station. Very nice breakfast. Room small, but equipped with everything that one may need during a short stay. WiFi worked well. The hotel has some kind of agreement with the city of Bern to offer free tickets for public transport. Very handy in times of bad weather.
I didn’t like the pillow, it was as if half of the filling was missing. Walls are thin, so you can hear neighbours walking (luckily there were no noisy ones during my stay).

Great location, in the middle of the busy area of the city but still very quiet in the rooms. There was daily room cleaning which was very nice. The staff at reception were lovely and helpful. The breakfast was good and on par with other hotels in Switzerland (yogurt, cereals, juices, croissants, bread, boiled eggs, cured meats and fruits). There was not many gluten free options in the breakfast for my partner.
The room that was given to us had a sloped roof essentially meaning you can’t use half the room. Not a big problem.

The hotel staff were very friendly and efficient. Location and restaurant were great!
This is the second time we stayed here. The first time we had a comfortable room and pleasant view. This time we were on the fourth floor in a room under the roof. It wasn’t possible to get in bed without bending over to avoid hitting our heads. The fourth floor is the laundry facility and the housekeeping staff begin their day early so we also were awakend by them and the sound of several washing machines and carts being moved around. What a shame. The hotel is delightful, but we would not stay again if it meant being on the fourth floor.

Very good location, right in the city centre with the Zytglogge and major tourist attractions right around the corner. The staff is friendly and the beakfast is quite nice. Given Bern is a major tourist spot the price is pretty good as well.
Set in a very old building everything is a bit old, do not expect any modern facilities. It is also quite noisy, again due to the location. Finally the room I had was very small, basically a bed, bathroom and an aisle to move around.

Central location near to the Zytglogge (clock chimes on the hour and every 15 mins day & night!) 8 mins walk to train station . We had a great view from 4th floor balcony, room was spacious with excellent housekeeping. Breakfast was fresh and plentiful, reception staff very helpful and friendly.
Only slight issue was the small bathroom in the room which you could see through from the bedroom. TV was small for the room size and no English TV programmes.

Perfect location in the heart of the old city! Very welcoming staff. The room is simple with a small bathroom. The latter is actually in the room itself with a thin partition wall (a little bit unusual but OK). It is a no-frills room that does the job! Breakfast is excellent with a good selection of dishes. Underground parking is available for a discounted fee (c.22€ per day). Overall, we enjoyed our overnight stay.

Location was great.
Bit dated and lacked decent pillows for the bed. The breakfast was under whelming ..and no central coffee server so had to ask the single waiter every time for coffee and he was waiting on the whole room. Was not informed we would be getting an ADA bathroom where the shower poured all over the floor. Parking is a little ways away but you can drop off luggage first which is nice

The Goldener Schleuessel is an excellent, traditional hotel which is owned by a family-run business that has restaurants and food as its main interests. Consequently, the food and service in the hotel restaurant was excellent and competitively priced when compared to other local restaurants. The room was large and very comfortable with easy access by the lift and by the stairs. The hotel is an easy walk from the main train station and right in the centre of the lovely old city centre. Pretty much everything can be reached on foot if you like walking. There are plenty of lovely, well-signposted walks around the hotel and along the river Aare.
The colour scheme in the room! It is an old building therefore soundproofing isn't wonderful but given the age of the building that is to be expected. They do provide earplugs for those who are particularly light sleepers! We did not need to use them and slept well. The restaurant would benefit from a daily special or two to augment the delicious offerings.
