Staff were amazing, property is gorgeous, you must try the spa. Marcus and Anna there were outstanding. Breakfast could have more warm options, and the rooms were a little on the small side but to be expected for a European property. Overall truly a 5 star property.

We had the most wonderful seven night stay at the Helvetia and Bristol last week. From the moment we entered, we were treated so kindly. The entire staff, from front desk to housekeeping to doormen to restaurant staff, were so warm, friendly, and helpful. The rooms were spacious and gorgeous, and turndown service a delight each night, with slippers laid out for us and chocolates on our pillows. The location was central to everything. Truly, there is not a single negative thing I could say - this is a magical hotel. We’ll be back!
