Hotels in Bern (Area), Switzerland

Bern sits in west-central Switzerland, with a temperate climate that brings warm summers (around 77°F/25°C) and cold winters (around 30°F/-1°C). The area is famous for its UNESCO-listed medieval old town, where you can climb the 15th-century Zytglogge clock tower for a view of the cobblestone streets, and for the Aare River that wraps around the city. In summer, you can float down the Aare with locals, while winter draws visitors to the Christkindli market on Münsterplatz and easy ski access to the nearby Bernese Oberland peaks like the Jungfrau.
