In the heart of the Old Town of Bern, nestled between the train station
and the city, the Hotel Schweizerhof Bern offers elegant accommodation,
a legendary restaurant, an on-site bar, a rooftop bar, attractive premises for parties, seminars and meetings – and since its renovation in 2011, a convivial spa as well.
In all areas of the hotel, the interiors bear the signature of London-based interior designer Maria Vafiadis, whose designs propelled the hotel to win the award for “Best Hotel Interior” at the “International Hotel Awards Europe” in 2012.
ROOMS & SUITES
The hotel’s 99 elegant rooms and suites leave nothing to be desired. Her- ringbone oak parquet flooring, warm lighting and selected details combine to create a welcoming atmosphere. Last but not least, the generously laid out bathrooms, each with a rain shower, allow visitors to relax and enjoy even extended stays.

HISTORY
The Hotel Schweizerhof Bern & Spa, also known as "Hotel Fetzer" or "Zähringerhof" in the 19th century, received its present name in 1859 from Daniel Vogel. In 1911 the then Hotel Schweizerhof was demolished and ceremonially opened on 1 July 1913. In 1939 Jack Gauer took over the management of the prestigious hotel. In the following years the hotel was renovated several times.
In 2005 the hotel was closed for extensive renovation work. In 2009, a 2-year comprehensive renovation began. Today the Hotel Schweizerhof Bern & Spa is part of the portfolio of the Bürgenstock Selection. After more than 160 years of history, another glamorous chapter of the famous Bernese luxury hotel is now beginning.
