Prize by Radisson, Bern City
Quite, safe, free coffee, close to buses, renovated. The downside: there were only two channels in English (both news) and there was no way for me to plug in my laptop to watch shows.

Los Lorentes Residences
The hotel is mostly trying to be automated. Staff was helpful. Room was fantastic and well equipped. The hotel also gives you a code to use transit in Bern for free. No parking available on site when I went so I had to scramble. But the hotel was still a great value.
