Welle7 Bern

Pastime at the train station

"Welle7 is a warm and cozy place next to Bern's train station where you can kill time. It has a pharmacy, a supermarket, a food court & free, clean toilets!"

What to do, if you're way too early at the train station, waiting for your journey to continue? Especially if it's cold or rainy outside you're in need of a warm and cozy place, where you can kill time. Welle7 is perfect for that, because it offers you a supermarket, a pharmacy and a food court with a wide range of different restaurants as well as a lot of stand-alone seating-accommodations you can also use as a working space without consuming food or drinks.

Maybe a funny subject, though: There are clean toilets in the basement, which you can use free of charge. There are only a few tidy and free restrooms you do not have to pay for in Bern. So this is a valuable hint :) Several times per year, there are also blood donation campaigns. So if you got a little extra time (and blood) you can combine your waiting time with a good deed. Isn't that wonderful?
