If you want to feel like a resident of the old city, then this place is exactly for you. The building is under state protection and much has been preserved here from old times. I really liked my stay, it was very unique.
The owner and personal are super friendly! Welcome drink was a very nice surprise 😋
Built in 1750, the Ofenhaus was originally used for baking bread and is situated next to the owner's farm house 1 km from the centre of Murten.

We loved staying at the quaint little ‘Ofenhaus’!
It was everything we expected, based on the Booking.com description, and maybe even a bit better. :)
The cleanliness was exemplary! I really am quite exacting concerning hygiene — and this place was literally spotless!
The whole place smelt of fresh laundry when we walked in — it really doesn’t get any better than that!
The water temperature and pressure in the shower are great!
Since both my husband & I have long, luxurious hair, this is a crucial point for us. Many holidays have been ruined, alas, because of bad (cold, weak) showers — but not at the ‘Ofenhaus’!
Everything works to perfection!
The location is really quiet & calm, but the beautiful medieval town of Murten can be reached on foot (via a short walk of 1km).
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay, and would definitely book the ‘Ofenhaus’ again if we happened to stay in the area in the future!

The apartment was exceptionally well appointed and had everything we needed. It was modern and clean, but at the same time felt very homely and comfortable. Whilst we had almost no interaction with the host, the instructions given on arrival were very clear and it was nice to be left to our own devices. The location (on a farm) was good too, being only a shorty 2.5km walk to town.

It's a very attractive little lakeside town with a medieval centre, including intact and walkable fortification wall, and lots of nice places to eat. It is well-connected transport-wise for visits to nearby attractions like the roman ruins in Avenches or the (really well-worth visiting) 12th century abbey in Payerne. Lake boats ply daily (in summer) to Neuchatel.

Murten is vey intresting, bt very small.
Murten is vey intresting, bt very small. Take one day to visitMurten and go for a long walk in he forest, by the lake. A "promenade" by boat over the lake (very small) will provide views over the small villages around it. One day is enough for all.
Although the hotel is at the very far eastern end of Murten, that just means a very pleasant 10-15 minute walk into the centre on the lakeshore promenade, so that was fine. Breakfast was entirely self-serve (in these covid-19 times) but well presented and fully adequate. It's a very quiet location. For travellers by car, there seemed adequate on-site parking which is certainly not always the case for hotels in the middle of Murten.
The room is comfortable with a plus for the shower. The location is not too far from Murten but you will surely need a car to get there. Also you almost can see the water from the place but access to it is not easy. You can walk for 10 minutes to get to a little tiny open spot. Otherwise you can access to the water through the community space but you will need a key and I am assuming to pay extra for it?
Morat was busy and this was the last room available 24 hours before. I was pleasantly surprised, the room and bathroom were clean and spacious although fairly spartan.
Breakfast was good and we were able to eat outside, enjoying the morning sun.
The warning of the DJ playing until 1.30am did not materialise. We did not hear a thing in our room, perfect night's sleep.
The hotel is very well located in the middle of the town, amidst restaurants and shops, closeby the lake for a swim. The hotel room was recently renovated, the old hardwood floors are giving it a nice atmosphere but the facilities are new. The owners are very committed and gave helpful tips and their restaurant on the ground floor is great for a nice dinner!
A cosy place in the old town of Murten where gives you feeling of being in a home and not a hotel. The decoration is selected with much attention to the details. The hostess, Andrea, provided us with an extra bed and breakfast for our child without any extra charges. We will definitely come back to Zimmerei for our future stays in Murten.
Beautiful modern hotel within a original building in Old town Murten.
Staff was super friendly, great location, rooms very well equipped and nicely designed with high quality fixtures, very clean. Nice pub that's part of the hotel, right downstairs, very convenient and good athmosphere
Great location on lake with large parks around it. Close walk up the hill to the historic city. Great breakfast as well. Rooms vary in size, but that is to be expected in Switzerland with renovated old buildings. Super gelato shop right across street - what's not to like?
The great place in the middle of the old town of Murten. The apartament has all what you need. Owners are so kind. Nice wood apartment in a very old house. A lot of things to do next to Murten. Ideal for families with kids. Ver nice room for them!!!
Authentic character and charm. The entire staff could not have been nicer— Patrick was amazing! It was a rare chance to stay in a castle with amazing grounds, just a mile away from historic Murten - Morat. We loved every minute of our stay!
The room was very spacious and clean. The breakfast was excellent with good variety of cereals, breads, cheeses and eggs. Superb coffee. The location is very good as Murten is on a lake and has a train station within five minutes walk.
I am grateful to the front desk staff for the extraordinary service I enjoyed at your hotel. You all went above and beyond to ensure I were comfortable and well cared for throughout my time with you. Thank you and keep up the good work!!
Very clean and pleasant accommodation not far from the center of Murten. We were pleased with the well-equipped kitchen and a small coffee machine with coffee capsules. It took us about 20 minutes to walk to the historic center.
This was a charming bed and breakfast style hotel in Murten that my wife and I enjoyed thoroughly. We were looking for total relaxation and this place helped considerably with that because of its cozy atmosphere
It was a short stay in the old town of Murten and it worked really well - the rooms where old but still good standard and especially very good value for money at a perfect location
A very nice hotel with an excellent location, the reception staff very friendly. Breakfast was good and the view from the restaurant in the mornings is perfect.
