What makes the hotel special

GayOut lists Goldener Schlüssel as a gay-friendly hotel with restaurant, explicitly not as a queer hotel. According to GayOut, Comeback Bar and Backpackers Glocke are each less than 100 m away. The Zytglogge and the Federal Palace are a few minutes’ walk.

Rooms and amenities

The rooms are compact and functional, and there is a pillow menu with eight types. Criticisms concern the sparse breakfast, noise from the Old Town bars and the ventilation of a neighbouring brewery.
