DESTINATION BERNE
The clocks tick slower in Bern than elsewhere. Being in a hurry or having a hectic lifestyle are foreign concepts to the Bernese. But they are not slow, as other Swiss people may tell you with a wink, they simply know how to embrace the art of living. In the capital of leisure, you can float around at your own pace, take time to enjoy yourself and celebrate in the open air.
Visit our Parliament Building, take a dip in the crystal clear Aare river or stroll around the worldfamous arcades. In 1983, the historic old town in the centre of Bern became a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

BÄREN PARK
The city of Bern's relationship with its heraldic animal goes back many years. Legend has it that a bear was the first animal to be caught by city founder Berchtold V. von Zähringen during a hunting expedition in the area, and that the city owes its name to this.
The Bernese chronicler Valerius Anshelm described in 1513 how the Bernese returned home victorious from the Battle of Novara, carrying both the captured standards and a living bear as spoils of war in their triumphal procession. It was kept in the city moat in front of the Käfigturm (Cage Tower).
Bears have been kept in Bern since 1513. Up until 1857 they were in the city itself, then in the bear pit and, from 2009, in the BearPark.
Today the BearPark is home to three bears named Finn, Björk and Ursina. You can observe from the upper terrace or from the Aare how the powerful bears search out food, laze around in the sun or take a cool bath.
It is open around the clock and free for all visitors.

ABOUT US
From a small idea to a large project.
After the Swiss Brand Museum decided to leave the old tollhouse after only 1 ½ year of operation we, the Altes Tramdpepot Brauerei Restaurant AG, quickly asked ourselves if there was any good idea for our little neighbouring house.
“a Hotel!”
After some serious doubts, the excitement quickly took over. And we decided: “Let’s do it”. In a short amount of time a business plan was developed and handed in to the city of Bern. Soon after their approval, the planning and realization of the project took its way. However, the simple idea of a hotel turned out to be more complex and difficult as assumed. Heritage protection and architectural obstacles were to be overcome. With the help of SHS (Swiss Hospitality Solutions), countless versions and 6 months of planning and construction we’re proud to now present the Hotel ZOLLHAUS in its new look.
Barely 20 years after the opening of the Altes Tramdepot Brewery and Restaurant, the Hotel ZOLLHAUS is besides the Weincafe Klösterli and Gelateria Eiswerkstatt its newest addition to the Tramdepot family.
