Hotel Bellevue Palace

We truly enjoyed our stay at your hotel from August 7 to 8, 2025. I would like to express special thanks to Chiara at the reception, who was exceptionally professional, friendly, and welcoming. Thanks to her attentive and kind approach, our check-in and overall stay were very comfortable. Thank you for the warm atmosphere and your care for guests. We left with only the most pleasant impressions and will definitely return.

Bellevue Palace Hotel offers an exceptional stay with impeccable service that makes you feel truly welcomed. The rooms are spacious, spotless, and thoughtfully designed for comfort and elegance. What truly sets it apart is the breathtaking view of the famous river, which adds a serene and luxurious touch to the experience. Every detail, from the attentive staff to the peaceful ambiance, reflects the hotel’s timeless charm and dedication to excellence. Whether for business or leisure, Bellevue Palace is a perfect choice for those seeking quality, comfort, and unforgettable scenery. Highly recommended for a memorable and relaxing stay in the heart of the city.

Wonderful hotel in every way! The location is unbeatable, the place itself is beautiful, and the beds were incredibly comfortable—same goes for the shower, just perfect. Breakfast was very good, though it would be great to have a bit more variety in the buffet. Overall, a fantastic stay and I would absolutely return.

A lovely Afternoon Tea experience! The atmosphere was calm and elegant, and the attention to detail was noticeable throughout. Service was kind and attentive without being too much. A special thank you to Alfonso for making us feel truly well looked after. We really enjoyed it and would definitely recommend it.

We expected the full comfort of a traditional Grand Hotel and were fully satisfied. What came as a surprise was the attention, the friendlyness and the helpfulness of every member of the hotel staff which we met. After a long ride with an open car, we came in very informally dressed and somewhat exhausted. We felt being taken care of from the first moment. Ten of ten pojnts for the hotel staff!!!

I attended the Afternoon Tea and it was a wonderful experience. The atmosphere was warm and inviting, and the service was attentive without being pushy. Special thanks to Alfonso for his friendly and professional approach, which made the event even more enjoyable. Much appreciated.

The hotel is in a wonderful location, both restaurants are very good indeed, and the room was spacious and spotless. The decor is a little retro, ok, but you will have a super comfortable stay. What really makes the difference is the staff who are unfailingly lovely and kind.

This wad the first time we visited Bern and my wife and I couldn’t have been happier with this hotel. Next time we are definitely going to stay longer. Tamara was also extremely helpful and nice =) she went above and beyond helping us.

The service, atmosphere, veal chop and chocolate mousse were decadent and worth the $$$$ rating. If you visit Bern, spend the money to enjoy a formal and scrumptious dinner- with views to die for!

Delicious meal right in the heart of charming Bern. We got a reservation for two and enjoyed our meal here. The mosaic de 3 fish was good but my favorite was probably my main dish of pigeon. My husband loved his steak. Would recommend.

We are staying in an Air B&B on the mountain and did not want to drive back down, so came in for a late dinner. The service was super friendly and attentive and the food was absolutely fantastic. I had the pork steak with vegetables; with fresh string beans, carrots, broccoli, chayote and fries. Everything was great- the pork was tender and juicy, perfectly cooked, and the veggies were delicious. It was the best meal so far after over 2 weeks in Europe. My friends ordered the pork schnitzel and it was also perfect. We also had the ice cream cake with strawberry sorbet and it was amazing. The prices were very reasonable, and during warmer weather the outdoor dining and view would be quite memorable. We will go back!

So this review is for the Bellevue Palace Hotel's Vue Restaurant - and what an elegant spot for a refined luncheon or dinner! Of course, there's the great view of the Bern River valley coursing its leisurely way through the city, but it's also a classy dining area with crisp white tablecloths, sparkling tableware, and top-notch attentive Swiss service. (And Swiss tidiness - they collect your overcoats and such for the coat-check so as not to disturb the dining room's appearance with unruly jackets draped all over the chairbacks!) They had a "businessman's" lunch menu that looked good, so I chose that and selected a salmon tartare for an appetizer (fatty and unctuous, deliciously seasoned and garnished); the roasted cod for main entree (excellent); and a refreshing limoncello ice with a fruit coulis comprised of blueberries, ligonberries, and raspberries. A nice strong coffee rounded out the meal. Wait service was great - made you feel like royalty!

Great restaurant, amazing service, very exquisite. Meal sizes were tiny for the price you pay, but absolutely delicious.

We are staying at the hotel and had Sunday brunch when we arrived. It was good, but expensive. After a poor dinner at a local restaurant we decided to go to the hotel bar at the restaurant. The bartender Marc Uthe was awesome and very nice to talk with. He was first class all the way and the drinks were excellent. The atmosphere was also very nice outside on the terrace.

The question when staying in Bern, where should I stay at the Bellevue Palace or the Schweizerhoff? Bellevue: great view. Large and beautiful lobby/atrium. The terrace overlooking the river is breath taking. The service throughout the hotel is Swiss at its finest. A classical European hotel that is very rare in the abstract world we live in. Schweizerhoff. Location convenience across from train station and shopping arcade. Spa to die for.

Two days in a row for dinner and it was excellent! Truly a feast for the pallets as they give you many variations even for traditional dishes and also has unique tastes such as "blue brain" cheese and even has great Italian coffee ... Correctto espresso ... try it!

This former private residence is a spectacular place to spend a few days in Bern. Everything is expensive in Switzerland but once you accept that and enjoy this palace you wont be disappointed. Rooms with a view of the river are especially quaint and very peaceful. Wide hallways and beautiful fixtures and art make this place special. Enjoyed having truffles shaved on my pasta and my partner said his chateaubriand was superb. Asparagus and fresh mushrooms were in season so along with a dollop of hollandaise we were in heaven. I would go back here in a heartbeat although we've only been here twice. Fills up quickly if an international conference is in town. Enjoy!

Didn't stay here but had the most spectacular meal EVER!!! Live a little and be pampered by the most attentive staff. I hated to leave!

The rooms are decent but the views are magnificent. The staff is incredibly nice and the service is just phenomenal.
