Hotel in zona Neues Museum Biel, Biel

L'albergo è confortevole. Ben situato. Con un parcheggio. E il personale accogliente e sorridente. Ci è piaciuto. La nostra sensazione contrastante deriva dal livello di rumore. Non dall'esterno. Non dalle altre stanze, ma dall'interno. Il sistema AC è molto rumoroso e non siamo riusciti a domarlo. La nostra unità spingeva continuamente l'aria al livello del mac. Anche se lo spegnessimo, tornerebbe alla massima velocità dopo 20 minuti. Se rimuovessimo la nostra tessera dalla porta, andrebbe immediatamente a piena velocità. Alle 2 del mattino abbiamo finito per rimuovere i fusibili della stanza per tagliare tutta l'elettricità nella stanza per dormire. Non so se si tratti di un difetto o di progettazione, ma questa è stata la prima volta che mi sono trovato di fronte a un sistema AC di propria iniziativa :-). Vorrei avere il controllo dell'aria condizionata nella stanza e tagliarla se necessario. Qui ho avuto pochissimo controllo anche sull’impostazione della temperatura.

This is a review of the Courtyard's restaurant Bluma - not the hotel. We were a group of 9 people who had lunch at the hotel's restaurant yesterday. The restaurant has a rather nice selection of smaller dishes (a tasting menu) from around the world (e.g. quesadillas, Bao buns, falafels, etc.). The idea is that you order 2-3 items and, if possible, share dishes at your table. In general, a nice concept and a nice looking restaurant. My issues with the restaurant: - COSTS: the costs are high, especially when going for lunch. The dishes cost from CHF 14.50 - 22.50 and a liter of water cost CHF 12. So, you are easily spending close to CHF 40 per person, assuming you only get 2 dishes. As some of the dishes were really very small, many of us needed 3 dishes. This is a very expensive restaurant, even for Switzerland. - SERVICE (1): the restaurant was empty except for our group (perhaps because of the cost issue above?). We all ordered fairly quickly, but the dishes came out staggered over the next 70 minutes. As I only ordered one dish, I sat there watching everyone else eat as mine (the Goan beef curry) came out last. Why would it take well over an hour to get all the food prepared? There was no one else in the place! And, one of the steak dishes was forgotten and had to be re-ordered, so we had a rather hungry teenage boy for awhile. - SERVICE (2): the wait staff did not understand even basic German, you had to speak French (preferable) or English with them. - SERVICE (3): we asked for separate bills by family which would have meant 5 separate receipts for our group. As the restaurant was completely empty, it should really not have been a problem. Yet, we still received one bill at the end and it was quite difficult to separate. Anyway, I hope the hotel F & B management is reading their reviews and does something to fix their cost and service issues. Again, the concept of a tasting menu is interesting and the reason we selected your restaurant. Consider offering a special lunch menu & price and please do look at the service issues.

I have booked the City Hotel 2-3 times and have always been delighted with the hotel, the rooms and the cleanliness. However, this time my stay in room 216 was very disappointing. The walls had relatively many stains, there were mosquito and spider nests and the shower curtain was yellow and calcified. The mattress was also not the newest. With a little renovation of the room, like painting the walls and replacing some things, the room would be top again. If it had been my first time at the City Hotel, I would not book it again. Therefore, I strongly recommend future guests, if they get room 216, to ask for another room.”

Erste Adresse bei einem Aufenthalt im Seeland. Gute Parkiermöglichkeit. Restaurant mit grosser Speiseauswahl. Hotelzimmer stets sauber und zweckmässig. Sehr nettes Personal. Immer wieder gerne. Diesmal Übernachtung alleine, habe mich wohl gefühlt. Ruhig. Aufenthalt ohne Frühstück gewählt, aber bei vorherigen Aufenthalten war es immer top, alles da was es braucht für den Start in den Tag.
