Rooms looked small from outside but were actually very big. Very relaxing being on the water
Hôtel des Arts is conveniently located just 200 metres from the lake, near the centre of Neuchâtel and the funicular railway which will take you to the train station in 3 minutes.

The room was a good size and very clean. There could have been a little bit more choice at breakfast.
Located in the foothills of the Jura Mountains, the elegant Hotel Les Vieux Toits in Hauterive is surrounded by vineyards. It offers free Wi-Fi and serves light meals.

Very good location. The room is fully equipped. Info about check-in, check-out, internet, etc. were sent well on time without us asking (for some other accom, you needed to chase).

Beautiful rooms, they feel very cozy, you have a view on a fountain and the streets in the centre. I enjoyed observing the town life from the window. The café is also very nice, they have very tasty bio syrups and jams, and it seems to be a local hotspot. The location is perfect, very central. The toilet and bathroom are shared with 2 other rooms, but they were always clean. The staff is very friendly and sweet.

It was an Amarcord thing for me, to re-visit the place where I used to live as a student in my twenties.
Lots of changes, I liked the old Swiss style.
Charming restaurants, plenty of café.
Very good but extremely expensive train system, buy your tickets well in advance.

The lakeside walk is beautiful, with Alps on the far side.
The lakeside walk is beautiful, with Alps on the far side. The architecture of the old Town is beautiful. There are grocery stores, pharmacies, gift shops, dress shops, cheese shops, chocolate shops, cafés and restaurants within very easy walking distance everywhere between the lake and the famous Collegiale where Reformer William Farrell once preached. The central Marché is an especially picturesque spot for a coffee or a meal at one of its many cafés. There is a funicular to Chaumont and its charming Petite Hotel which serves excellent food. Next to it is a zip line fun park for kids and playground for littles.
The Neuchâtel museum is worth a visit. 2 lakeside restaurants with outside eating are great: Beau Rivage and Waves. Boats to other towns around the 3 lakes are fun and easy to book.

Breakfast was great. Coffee in rooms was great.
Breakfast was great. Coffee in rooms was great. Sixth floor room/attic was horrible. Can’t stand up in 1/3 of the room, portable AC loud and vented through opening in the roof (let’s hot air in). Terrible room. Other five floors looked lovely. This was not a double. It was a mini double

Hotel near the lake and the museum of fine arts.
Hotel near the lake and the museum of fine arts. Finding a parking place was difficult when we arrived. Having a room just next to the breakfast restaurant is no ideal in the morning. Tourist discounts are useful.
We got one of the last available rooms. The view was towards the city and not the lake, but anyhow to room was comfortable clean and offered enough space. We appreciated the coffee machine and the comfortable beds.
The roof top bar is spectacular.
We have arrived (by motorbike) before the regular checkin time, so our room was not yet ready. We really appreciated the offer to change clothes and store it with our luggage in a locker room.
The staff was super friendly despite the fact that the hotel was very busy that weekend.
The name is mentioning rare but this is more an unique location of one kind. It is very relaxing and comfort place to stay.
The location has all you need. We have been welcomed by Anne-Marie one of the hosts and have been having good contact with Oliver during our stay. Oliver has been available if needed. The location is a good place to relax and enjoy the region.
We chose this hotel because of it's location, and it did not disappoint. We stayed in the lake view room, and the view was really amazing. There are many choices for breakfast. The staff was very welcoming and helpful. Parking can be arranged on the street or in a nearby parking garage. We especially appreciated the check-out time, which was 12 PM.
We arrived to Neuchatel in October 2022, and it was a complicated period of our life. I can not emphasize enough how important it was for us that the hotel provided a big apartment for us, that it has such a great location and that Giovanni helped us a lot with all our requests. We are very grateful for this and we enjoyed our stay.
The hotel is quite comfortable, close to the city center, 10 min. walk from the train station. The room was clean, equipped with coffee machine. The weather was hot, what is not usual in Swiss, so there is no air conditioning in the room, although a high performance fan was there.
Location is perfect, right on the center of Neuchatel, good breakfast, nice confortable rooms with everything required, good internet connection too, good AC system, and the most important thing, super friendly helpful staff! Also some rooms have an AMAZING view to the lake!
I went there on a Saturday night so the price should have been higher in comparison to the other nights, however, I felt that it was more expensive than it should be. The location is great and it's close to the lake and the city center. As a three star hotel is good.
The location near the train station was super convenient for travel. The hosts who run the place are absolutely wonderful people and were more than happy to help me with questions about tourist attractions in Neuchâtel. Breakfast was also quite nice.
located in the outskirts of Neuchatel. Small and cozy hotel. I was lucky to get a parking spot as well. Room is spacious with all needed, a bit old but ok. Very good breakfast served.
