The hotel is perfectly located in the heart of Solothurn, making it easy to explore the area. The rooms are basic but feature tasteful decor, which I appreciated. The service is efficient and friendly, though the breakfast options left a bit to be desired. Overall, it's a good value for the central location and friendly atmosphere, but there are definitely some areas for improvement.

The hotel is perfectly situated in the heart of Solothurn, making it super convenient for exploring the area. The rooms were clean and comfortable, though I found them a bit small for my liking. The staff was friendly and professional, and I appreciated their helpful nature. Dining options were quite limited, which was a slight letdown. Overall, I’d say it’s decent value for money, especially considering the great location.

The hotel is located right in the heart of Solothurn, making it perfect for exploring the city. The rooms are spacious but be prepared for the early morning chimes from the nearby clock tower at 6 am. The staff is friendly and helpful, offering good service. However, the breakfast could use more variety to enhance the experience.

The rooms are larger and clean but they are adjacent to the clock tower, so I was woken up early by the chimes.

The hotel offers a spacious and comfortable stay, perfect for those looking to enjoy the sights of Solothurn. The location is fantastic, right in the heart of the old town and close to public amenities. However, be prepared for the early morning chimes of the adjacent clock tower, which might not be ideal if you're a light sleeper. Additionally, the breakfast options could use more variety to make it a truly enjoyable experience.

Rooms

The rooms are quite spacious and feature lovely Impressionist art. However, since they are adjacent to the clock tower, the chimes can be quite loud starting at 6 am.

I had a lovely stay at this hotel, which is perfectly located in the heart of Solothurn, making it easy to explore the area. The rooms were beautifully decorated with Monet prints, which added a nice touch, though I did find them a bit small. The staff was generally friendly and helpful, but I did encounter some issues that weren’t resolved entirely. The breakfast could use some improvement as it was rather meager, yet overall, the hotel provided good value for money.
