Updated: Jul 8

Author: Limi Bolomier


If you are looking for a hotel in Bern that makes it easy to enjoy both sightseeing and dining, Hotel Ambassador Bern is one to keep in mind.


The hotel is easy to reach by tram from Bern’s main station, and it is located in a calm area slightly away from the busy city centre. From here, it is still convenient to get into central Bern by public transport, making it easy to enjoy shopping, a walk through the Old Town, or a relaxed café break along the Aare River.

For travellers arriving by car, the hotel also offers parking, which can be especially helpful when travelling with luggage or visiting Bern as a family.


Easy to Reach by Tram from Bern Main Station, and Convenient by Car

Hotel Ambassador Bern is located in an area with convenient public transport access to central Bern. It is easy to reach Bern Main Station and the Old Town, making it a practical base for shopping, city walks, and relaxed café time along the Aare River.


For those visiting by car, the hotel also offers parking, which is helpful when travelling with luggage or visiting Bern with family.


What Is the Bern Ticket? A Public Transport Service for Overnight Guests

When you stay at accommodation in Bern for at least one night, you may receive a Bern Ticket that can be used during your stay.


Within the eligible area, the ticket allows you to use public transport such as trams, buses, and trains, making it convenient to travel between your hotel and central Bern.

The ticket can be activated through the Bern Welcome App, so it is a good idea to ask the hotel reception about how to use it when you check in.



Enjoy Japanese Dining at Taishi Inside the Hotel

One of the highlights of this hotel is that it has a Japanese restaurant inside the building. Taishi combines a sushi bar with a teppanyaki steakhouse, where guests can sit in front of the hot iron griddle and watch the chef prepare the food right in front of them.


The restaurant is also introduced on the official website as a combination of a sushi bar and steakhouse, with teppanyaki-style cooking where fish and meat are prepared in front of guests.


What made the visit memorable was that the meal felt like a small event in itself. Depending on the staff and the day, there may be playful touches such as an egg performance or a flame presentation, creating an atmosphere that can be enjoyable for both families with children and adults.

If you start to miss Japanese food during your stay in Bern, being able to enjoy sushi or teppanyaki inside the hotel feels more comforting than you might expect.

Editor’s Note

Bern is a pleasant city to explore simply by walking through the Old Town or along the Aare River. Staying in a hotel in the city center is convenient, of course, but choosing a place slightly away from the center and taking the tram into town is also one of the ways to enjoy Bern at a more local pace. Hotel Ambassador Bern stood out as a hotel where the Japanese restaurant inside the building offered a sense of comfort and reassurance when it came to dining while traveling.
