The hotel overlooks lake Neuchâtel with some lake view suites right on the water. Absolutely beautiful location and the staff were very friendly.
Located at Neuchâtel's harbour, Best Western Premier Hotel Beaulac is just a 2-minute walk from the historic city centre and the university.

Fantastic location near the town with lake view. Room and bathroom was very clean with modern decoration. Liked the position of the bed facing the lake, so both can have an outside view. Big balcony with sofa and dining table with chairs to enjoy the amazing lake view with boats.
Hôtel des Arts is conveniently located just 200 metres from the lake, near the centre of Neuchâtel and the funicular railway which will take you to the train station in 3 minutes.

Our room was quite large. It felt awesome to freely move inside without bumping into furniture. The bathroom was indeed another nice surprise.
Located in the foothills of the Jura Mountains, the elegant Hotel Les Vieux Toits in Hauterive is surrounded by vineyards. It offers free Wi-Fi and serves light meals.

quiet, very pretty, nice view on the lake (but rather small window)
The Aux Chambres du Banneret is situated in a protected 16th-century building, set in the pedestrian zone in the heart of Neuchâtel, a few minutes' walk from the lake and from many restaurants, bars...

The room was surprisingly modern, with a small apartment-like kitchenette and shower stall but with preserved ceiling beams and quaint flooring. It’s well placed in the centre of town, accessible to the bus stop and other amenities.
Le Café-Hôtel de L'Aubier is set in Neuchâtel old town, 3.7 km from Laténium. Free WiFi is provided. Books are available. All rooms are fitted with a wash basin.

Beautiful rooms, they feel very cozy, you have a view on a fountain and the streets in the centre. I enjoyed observing the town life from the window. The café is also very nice, they have very tasty bio syrups and jams, and it seems to be a local hotspot. The location is perfect, very central. The toilet and bathroom are shared with 2 other rooms, but they were always clean. The staff is very friendly and sweet.

It was an Amarcord thing for me, to re-visit the place where I used to live as a student in my twenties.
Lots of changes, I liked the old Swiss style.
Charming restaurants, plenty of café.
Very good but extremely expensive train system, buy your tickets well in advance.

The lakeside walk is beautiful, with Alps on the far side.
The lakeside walk is beautiful, with Alps on the far side. The architecture of the old Town is beautiful. There are grocery stores, pharmacies, gift shops, dress shops, cheese shops, chocolate shops, cafés and restaurants within very easy walking distance everywhere between the lake and the famous Collegiale where Reformer William Farrell once preached. The central Marché is an especially picturesque spot for a coffee or a meal at one of its many cafés. There is a funicular to Chaumont and its charming Petite Hotel which serves excellent food. Next to it is a zip line fun park for kids and playground for littles.
The Neuchâtel museum is worth a visit. 2 lakeside restaurants with outside eating are great: Beau Rivage and Waves. Boats to other towns around the 3 lakes are fun and easy to book.

Breakfast was great. Coffee in rooms was great.
Breakfast was great. Coffee in rooms was great. Sixth floor room/attic was horrible. Can’t stand up in 1/3 of the room, portable AC loud and vented through opening in the roof (let’s hot air in). Terrible room. Other five floors looked lovely. This was not a double. It was a mini double

Hotel near the lake and the museum of fine arts.
Hotel near the lake and the museum of fine arts. Finding a parking place was difficult when we arrived. Having a room just next to the breakfast restaurant is no ideal in the morning. Tourist discounts are useful.

If you like a small town feel without the tourist trap...
If you like a small town feel without the tourist trap feeling than this place is for you. Plenty of places to see and eat. Bus or short train trip will get you around to places including neighboring towns. Beautiful lake, lots of parks for peaceful walks. The saturday market in the center of town is fun to stroll through and stopping into the many specialty shops around town can take days.
The apartment is large with a well stocked kitchen. There is a laundry room available in the basement. The wifi is good at least for streaming Netflix. Great views of the lake. The bus stop is a two-minute walk and takes 10-15 minutes to reach the town center. Included in the booking guests receive the Neuchâtel tourist pass which includes public transportation and many tourist activities. Lastly, the coffee machine makes an excellent brew!
The reception personnel were extremely nice and helpfull
the room is well equipped and very clean
the location is superb ,
both within few minutes walk to the center ,
and in front of the train station and thus has a few eateries and supermarket across the street
Neuchâtel is very small and we had walked our way down to the “center” and the wharfs
in no time
the free parking in just across the street of the hotel, very convenient
Nice modern hotel on the lake. The rooftop bar seems like a bit of a local hang out because it was well occupied on our Sunday night. Wonderful view of the lake on the rooftop, lounge couches, soft light. Really nice. Rooms are large with an office space and a desk as well as the regular room. Nice big balcony. In hotel car parking by reservation. Good Wi-Fi. Massive, great breakfast overlooking the lake.
Large comfortable airy apartment which is well equipped. Fantastic view over Lake Neuchatel, with the entire Swiss alps in distant view. (To get the good view you need to climb up to the property from the garage - probably not suitable for people with limited mobility). Regular bus service to Neuchatel,about 50m from the property. Excellent wi-fi speeds. Hosts on site but unobtrusive.
The room is very spacious and the balcony has sun until late afternoon that in October is something you enjoy. The position is very good, close to the lake and to the city centre. The coffee machine in the room makes an exceptional coffee and the decaffeinated capsules were appreciated. The hotel is new and everything was very good.
The location is great, just next to the lake and promenade. If you are a hotel guest you can park for free in front of the hotel. They give to the guest a parking card. As a hotel guest one can also receive a tourist card to visit museums in the city or use city public transport for free. Nearby there are many restaurants and bars.
Very charming hotel with wooden beams on the ceiling, staff was kind and welcoming. Everything was clean and the equipment was good. Shower worked great and there were a few cosmetic products available in the bathroom. The hotel is next to the river with great view in the waterfall from the windiw. The watermill is worth a visit.
Location is perfect, right on the center of Neuchatel, good breakfast, nice confortable rooms with everything required, good internet connection too, good AC system, and the most important thing, super friendly helpful staff! Also some rooms have an AMAZING view to the lake!
An excellent location within minutes walking of the Gare Centrale. Charming building with nice colorful, cheerful decor. Very clean. Large comfortable and quiet rooms.
I would definitely recommend this place!
I've been coming to this hotel on and off for a few years but this was my first visit after Covid. Aside from the addition of the Annexe, the hotel was much as I remembered it. Which is a good thing.
Very good hotel and easy to get to in Neuchatel.
We landed at Neuchatel airport and with in 20 min we are at the hotel and all checked in and went to the bar.
Bar is good, nice view.
Breakfast was very delicious. Staff was very friendly. The hotel is situated on a very central place, not far from the beautiful lakeside. I could recommend this nice hotel very much.
A bus stop is very close, and you get a public transport card (though you get it at any hotel or hostel). You also get a set of towels, so there is no need to bring your own.
