Stay KooooK Bern City – Online Check In
What a great concept. Rooms really cool and cosy. The building itself is stunning and the decor throughout top class. The social rooms and kitchen are like a home from home. Wish we’d had more than one night. The Expedia page doesn’t do it justice. Don’t hesitate to book.
