Hotel Krone

Hotel Krone is a historic inn located on Hauptgasse in central Solothurn that blends period furnishings with modern bathrooms in its guest rooms. The building contains a wine cellar, dining areas, and spaces available for private gatherings.

The building was founded in 1418 and stands as one of the oldest inns in Switzerland. Its walls in the medieval town center have continuously served travelers for centuries.

The dining spaces reflect 18th-century design and create a sense of living history for guests. The restaurant's approach to food preparation shows how this establishment has maintained its role as a gathering place for the community.

Visitors should familiarize themselves with the narrow lanes of the old town, as the hotel is reached through a central but unobvious entrance. Staff can provide bicycles and readily point out paths to local attractions.

The restaurant works directly with local farmers and adjusts its weekly menus based on what is currently in season. This practice reflects a long-standing connection with the surrounding farmland that runs through the property's entire history.
