Baseltor - Burgdorf

Stay for 1 night in the hotel and visited the restaurant. eating was really good, Mediterranean style with a modern take it like zucchini with cowards. the personal was also very nice. the room was good. the only contrasts: slow wifi and some soft matrate not star deductions, although: the opposite around the hotel is really beautiful and quiet, with a certain historical charm. close by is a public garage.

Solothurn was our 2nd and final stop of our Swiss-German itinerary which began on 29th July in Basel. We had to schedule our departure late from Basel on the 31st because Baseltor’s check-in policy was only from 1630! A further shock awaited us when we were informed that check out the next day was 10am. What sort of hotel has a ridiculous accommodation policy such as this; they don’t deserve to use the name Hotel! The room we had was in a loft; 2 single metallic beds which when pushed together ended up sliding away. The bathroom was tiny with the minimal of toiletries. We decided to have our dinner at the hotel; a big mistake. Pricey for very ordinary dishes. The only saving grace was that coffee at the check-out day’s breakfast was unlimited though the rest of the breakfast fare was nothing exceptional to write home about. Never again will we stay or recommend this hotel to anyone.

Wir kommen immer wenn wir in Solothurn sind. Einfach genial. Essen und Personal. Wir können es nur empfehlen.

Die filetierte Orangen angemacht mit würzigem Olivenöl, die marinierten Sardellen mit schwarzer Focaccia (Tintenfisschtinte), der gabelzarte Domherren Rindschmorbraten mit schmackhaftem Ofengemüse an Rotwein-Rahmsauce mit Lebkuchengewürzen, das Traubensorbet an Grappa, alles was wir hier gegessen haben zeugt mit seiner Schmackhaftigkeit von den biologischen Zutaten und dem köstlichen Talent von Küchenchefin Pia Camponovo. Der Service ist effilzient und herzlich wie zur Gründerzeit vor 40 Jahren und die Preise stimmen.

Ausgezeichnet haben wir gestern zu 6. im Séparée unser Nachtessen genossen. Der Junge Mann welcher für den Service zuständig war, versteht sein Handwerk, Chapeau!
