The Marktgasse Hotel brings a breath of fresh, boutique air to the historic Niederdorf quarter. It spins together 15th-century features like stucco, tiled ovens and wood panelling with pared-back modern design in the rooms – the higher you go, the better the views. Baltho Küche & Bar, plus a wellness area with a hammam and gym, invite relaxation. Breakfast costs Sfr19.
Top billing goes to the rooftop suite with its own terrace overlooking the city.
