Hotel Allegro Bern: Bern, Switzerland

kursaal2

Opened in 1998 as part of the Kursaal Bern complex (one of Bern’s more notable landmarks), Hotel Allegro Bern, a four-star, lifestyle hotel, fuses classic Swiss hospitality with contemporary design.

The hotel’s 171 rooms and suites were completely renovated in 2009 with an interior design befitting the hotel’s Italian name. The furnishings are sleek examples of Italian style. Musical instruments are scattered throughout the hotel and the wallpaper is embossed with the Italian words for musical tempi.

Rooms with terraces overlook Bern, as well as the hotel park with its bubbling brook. An architectural staircase descends from the upper level rooms to the Atrium, thereby enabling a grand entrance for breakfast.

Everything is immaculate, spotlessly clean in that Swiss manner, which might well spoil you for many other countries.
