Centrally located in the old town of Thun, a 10-minute walk from the Train Station, the Alpine-style Hotel Emmental dates back to 1898. Free public WiFi is offered. The sun terrace of the hotel overlooks the Castle of Thun, which is 200 metres away, as well as the surrounding mountains - the ski regions of Grindelwald, Gstaad and Lenk with the Jungfrau and Eiger Mountains are a 45-minute drive away. The bright rooms have high ceilings, elegant yet cosy white furniture and LCD cable TV. The private bathrooms have showers. The cosy restaurant at the Emmental also features a bar and serves weekly changing dishes, accompanied by European wines and Swiss spirits.

Couples particularly like the location — they rated it 8.9 for a two-person trip.

    The staff were friendly and helpful. We had a big comfortable room with a view of the castle and was very well located eg for restaurants and old town. The hotel gave us good information about the sights and especially about nearby paid parking...

    The hotel has a great restaurant which also serves as reception. The public parking is close by and secure. It is an easy two minute walk to the town & river... The rooms were minimalistic, but fine. The breakfast was good with a buffet selection...

    The room was very spacey, even for three adults. It had a spectacular view on the castle and downtown. We got two parking tokens in a nearby parking garage (saved us 4 of 20 CHF). The breakfast was nice. The location is great. You are 5 min away...
