We had a pleasant stay at Hotel Murten with our family. We really appreciated the convenient location, close to the lake and the village. The staff is very friendly and welcoming. The room is large and comfortable, although it could use some update in the furniture. Also tv was not working during our stay. The restaurant is good and has a large choice, but unfortunately it was closed both Sunday and Monday. All in all, we recommend this property and we thank the staff for welcoming us!

An excellent hotel with outstanding staff

An excellent hotel with very friendly and helpful staff and the breakfast was very good, my only issue was that there was no facilities to make a cup of tea or coffee in the room. I had to get a coffee from the restaurant when I would have expected to have had a kettle and tea and coffee and of course you have to pay additional for that....

Good place to stay for Murten/Morat

A little walk from the train station as it is on the far side of the old town. But other than that, little to complain of. Hotel was nice, room laid out well--liked the additional dining area that was separate from the bed/sleeping area. Staff very nice, and breakfast is good. Once situated, it was convenient to walk just a couple of blocks to enter the old town. Walking the ramparts was great, sunset was great, playing chess in the park was great. Good time in Murten/Morat all around.

OK Hotel in Murten

Hotel is clean and quiet. Pillows are of low quality and there is no air conditioning. Depending upon the room location, you could be located near an air handling unit that runs all night long. Not the greatest hotel for those seeking a good night's rest.

Average Hotel in Murten

I had to take a cold shower in the morning. No explanation why. Breakfast is just average, with primary focus on bread, bread and other shapes of bread. Good restaurant for evening meals. There is no air conditioning at this property (nor at Murtenhof & Krone Hotel in the same town) Overall: Poor price to value ratio.

Marvelous Murten

If you want close to the quaint, charming town of Murten this is the place. The hotel is fairly well appointed and a big plus is the built in, very stylish restaurant and cocktail lounge. Outside dining a couple hundred meters from the “City Gates” makes a short walk to a dozen other restaurants and shops easy. My first night was in a small single overlooking the Main Street and as it was Friday night, made for a difficult sleeping environment. The desk folks couldn’t have been more caring and were nice enough to move me to a much larger double bed arrangement away from the street. It was perfect. The price point is good and if you can score a quiet room in the back you’ve got the best of all worlds.

Great hotel and amazing village.

Check in was fast and friendly , room large clean and comfortable. Great atmosphere in the bar and restaurant with excellent service. The medievel village is a few minutes walk , the wall and turrets surrounding it are amazing and once inside you can stroll around the cobbled lanes and decorated arcades.

Nice and convenient located hotel

The receptionist is friendly and speaks English very well, which eliminates the language barrier. The room is very spacious and clean. It look like a small apartment than a hotel. There is a very nice lake near by. It is about 5 minutes walk from the hotel. The train station is about 10-15 minutes walk.

Avoid this hotel

This is an old building with very poor upkeep. The hotel is located very near the old city and has its own free parking (if you can find a spot). Stephanie at the desk was very helpful with the room and with touring advice.. She gave us a complimentary upgrade to a triple in order to enjoy larger windows. There is no AC at this hotel and we arrived on a hot day. The problem with more fresh air is more mosquitos. The fan she supplied was a small help. There is no safe in the room and no kettle. The breakfast was merely ok. Avoid the restaurant if you only speak English. They do not.

Good hotel in a handsome town

Lovely, spacious, comfortable room in what was a very handsome town. Murten town centre and the lake were an easy 2 - 3 minute walk away. Breakfast was maybe a bit disappointing. There is not a huge choice of food available. But, I would certainly stay here again.
