While doing some research on family history in Switzerland I had the opportunity to stay at the Ramada Hotel Solothurn. This is a very nice, modern facility located on the banks of the Aare river. The hotel enjoys a wonderful view of the old city, to which it is a couple minute walk (also to the train station). The hotel itself was very nicely furnished, and I enjoyed the breakfast buffet which included a nice variety of hot and cold dishes. Unfortunately I did not get to enjoy their Sunday brunch - but as they were setting it up I got enough of an eye full to make me wish I was staying to enjoy the variety and selection of good food. Solothurn is a very nice city with an outstanding old town section with well preserved buildings, city walls, towers, gates and fountains. Although the weather was very cold (we are in the middle of a cold spell here in Europe) I enjoyed walking around this very picturesque city. While staying at the hotel I splurged and ordered a Ramada cheeseburger - excellent! As a cheeseburger expert I highly recommend it! I would recommend this hotel to anyone who has the chance to visit this charming city.
