The history of Aerni is a history of craftsmanship, passion and continuous development. What began generations ago as a classic hairdressing tradition has developed over more than 180 years into a holistic experience.
The Aerni and Riedo hairdressing families combine experience, creativity and entrepreneurial spirit. With a keen sense of quality and atmosphere, they have created a building at Aarbergergasse 60 that goes far beyond a salon - a place where hair, beauty, spa and encounters naturally come together.
For us, tradition does not mean standing still. It is the basis for innovation. This is how a modern concept has emerged from grown expertise, combining individuality, style and relaxation under one roof.
Behind Aerni are personalities who are passionate about their craft. People with experience, creativity and a keen sense of style and individuality.
Marc and Jan Riedo run the hotel with vision, entrepreneurial spirit and a clear understanding of quality. Together with a dedicated team, they create a place where professionalism and a personal atmosphere naturally come together.
For as much as spaces, concepts and awards characterize Aerni, it is the people who make it special.
Time
We believe that true quality takes time. Time for advice, for individuality and for a moment that is all yours.
Craft
Over 180 years of experience characterize our understanding of precision, technology and style. For us, expertise is not a trend, but a foundation.
Holistic approach
Hair, spa, style and atmosphere harmonize with each other. For us, beauty is more than a single moment. It is an interplay.
Aesthetics
We pay attention to details, proportions and mood. Because it's the subtle nuances that make an experience special.
Aarbergergasse 60
A house with history. A place with character.
Our hotel at Aarbergergasse 60 is located in the heart of Bern's old town, just a few steps away from the train station. Embedded in historical architecture and characterized by modern design, this place combines tradition with contemporary aesthetics.
High rooms, warm materials and carefully selected details create an atmosphere that radiates calm and style. Craftsmanship, design and hospitality come together here - naturally and harmoniously.
It is not without reason that Aerni has been recognized internationally as one of the most beautiful salons. But more important than any award is the feeling you get when you enter this place: of being welcome.
Our commitment to quality and atmosphere has been recognized nationally and internationally on several occasions over the years. We do not see these awards as a goal, but as confirmation of our attitude.
Among other things, Aerni was honored with the EsteticaDesign Award as «The most beautiful Salon of the World». Top Hair International also honored us as one of the leading salons in German-speaking countries.
The Riedogroup also received the Artisana Award for outstanding innovation and employee-oriented corporate culture.
But what really sets us apart is the trust our guests place in us - and the joy we put into our work every day.
