Courtyard Biel/Bienne

很好啊，還會再來！

Stayed here to visit a friend and to participate in the Biel/Bienne Carnival also known as Fasnacht. Leo who handled our check-in was very efficient and a delight to work with; we had reserved two rooms. The Courtyard is very nicely decorated, very clean and has a nice restaurant. I was very happy with my upgrade to a deluxe room which had a balcony. It was a very spacious room and I loved the USB C plug ins and the portable make up mirror in the bathroom. Lots of closet space to hang or fold clothes. Price of the hotel stay was very reasonable. The location of the hotel is easy walking distance to the old town and to the train station. Very convenient location. We used the train station to visit nearby Twann (wine tasting) and Bern (they also had a carnival). Breakfast every morning was great. Nice buffet style, good selection of delicious food with plenty of comfortable seating. We had a drink one night at the bar – also very nice and quiet. My friend had a car which was difficult to find hotel parking as there are just 5 or 6 spots. He has an invalid parking sticker, but that spot was taken by a non-invalid plated car. We should have mentioned this on the first night but did not. On checkout we mentioned this issue to Leo who apologized and said he would ask that hotel monitor that spot more regularly. Again, we should have mentioned it the first night. As is with many hotels in Switzerland, it is somewhat difficult to control the thermostat in the room. While it was March, we were fortunate to experience sunny, warm days. My room had a window and balcony which allowed me at night to remain cool with the windows open. The only negative was that my balcony faced the “Chessu – Couple” which seems to be some sort of night club and appears to be open from 11PM to 6AM. I can’t blame the Courtyard for this building and its hours – hoping that the city of Biel/Bienne takes a closer look at limiting the hours to just 2AM. On Friday & Saturday night I had to close my windows due to people talking outside of the Chessu and the thumping noise of music. With windows closed the noise wasn’t so bad. Really enjoyed my stay at the Courtyard Biel/Bienne and recommend it as a great hotel. Merci Courtyard!

This is an excellent brand new hotel (10 months old). Located close to the old town, everything is new and modern. The room was good size with a new and shiny bathroom, clean and quiet. Good breakfast. Terrific front desk, very friendly and helpful. If you have a car you can park in front to unload your luggage. They have a few parking spots behind the hotel at CHF18 (vs CHF40 for the city parking). Ask the front desk if they're available.

We took this property as base to travel to different places like Lauter etc that’s like 2 hrs drive . Checked in around 5 PM . It was a very hot day & the AC will not move from 26 degree down . Thermostat is complex :) After many trials a staff arrived ( This young man was very nice ). But the temperature won’t go down . After 6 hrs at 11 we were adviced to open the balcony door That was not ok as smoke smell & noise from road was horrible & some insects like bees , wasp etc came in . Around 12 hotel said we can try another room. We have a disabled kid . So middle of night we went to one floor up . No luck . Some how spend the night in that room . Again back to old room. All of us got sick from the heat & sweat , sore throat . Couldn’t go any where as tired from heat and no sleep . Lost 1 day of vacation :(.weekends no mechanic to check AC it seems & they say Europe AC is like this it won’t go below 24 C . We had same experience in Strasbourg Marriott too . Two more days with a table fan we had to adjust , hotel reception say many people from usa & gulf complain about heat but hotel management can’t help It. That’s not good !!! Breakfast started boring the first day but then around 10 am chefs came in and put some good pastries outside . Bed is very good

Alles in allem ein sauberes Hotel👍 Warum 3 Points Frühstück hoch angesetzt 27.- und spärliche Auswahl Sehr laut direkt neben dem Gaskessel 👎👎 Menüauswahl ok! An der Reception wurden wir mit unfreundlicher Auskunft bedient👎👎 Die junge Frau mit Brille immerzu am Handy ein No go ! Preise Bar zu hoch Tipp In der Nähe viele kleine Restaurants

Ganz neues Hotel in Biel Zentrum, das mit tollem Frühstück und grossem Fitnessstudio glänzt. Ausserdem sehr bequeme Boxspring -Betten, Balkon, Gepäckaufbewahrung und dennoch viel Ruhe dank Dreifach-Verglasung. Kann es vorbehaltlos empfehlen!
