The young people at the reception guarantee a smile and a warm welcome. The rooms are old-style but spacious, with comfortable mattresses, large windows, an electric fan, and built-in air conditioning. My bathroom had both a bath and shower, with plenty of hot water. Downstairs, there’s a cozy wooden bar with indoor and outdoor tables set near a soothing fountain. The hotel also offers a large tree-shaded parking area, and on the lawn, recliners invite you to relax, chat in the sun, or take an afternoon nap. There’s a sauna as well, though I didn’t visit it—at the time of my stay, the summer heat across Europe was sauna enough. On the first floor, the restaurant serves tasty Mexican food. The ambiance is always lively, as tourist buses (usually around three per night) often choose this hotel for a stopover, creating a friendly and international crowd. For those who prefer to shop for fruit or snacks, both Lidl and Aldi are close by. The Dreiländerbrücke and its impressive shopping center are only a 15-minute walk away. At the foot of the bridge, a beautiful terrace offers the perfect spot to watch the sunset and see the Rhine glide peacefully by while you enjoy dinner or a cocktail/mocktail.

What could be more convenient is a little hotel shuttle to/from the tram stop. Line 8 is not 3–5 minutes away as sometimes mentioned, but rather a 15/20-minute walk from the hotel. Also, it’s best not to take your car into Switzerland or near the Rhine, as parking is expensive and fines are common—especially if you plan to spend the whole day in Basel. The tram system itself can feel a little complicated at first. If you’re in Germany and only want to visit Switzerland by tram, you can buy a Tageskarte Mini (day card mini) for two countries (€10.70- about the same as buying one ticket each way, but with the convenience of unlimited travel for the day.). If you stay overnight in France you will have to buy a 3 countries card in France, which costs double the price (Sep 2025)

The staff was always nice and helpful, the location of the hotel is excellent to stop if you want to rest from a road trip. The parking has a lot of places and you can park briefly in front of the entrance to put things in the car. They have a restaurant that sells really good food, and the portions are big. They also offer different options for breakfast. If you bring pets, they have a lot of green areas to walk and they gave them a treat when we arrived. Overall, it is a good place to spend a night.

The room was a bit old, and it was not super clean. It was a hot night and we had a nice fan on the room, however when we turned off the light of the room, the electricity stopped working, including the fan. We had to make some arrangements in the room to keep the fan on while being able to turn off the light to sleep. Only one lift worked, so it was always busy.

Mostly everything! The hotel is in a very good location, convenient to visit the cities around. The staff is very polite and very welcoming. The room was spacious, clean and the bed was comfy. The breakfast was great with many options. We also tried the restaurant one night and we liked it a lot! The hotel also has a policy for which the guests can choose to skip the room cleaning one day and get a free drink at the bar in exchange. That was absolutely fantastic! We'll consider staying here again!

The building is a bit old fashioned and only one elevator was working

The breakfast was excellent, having all you need to start your day. Also, the location is very good (when you are traveling by car). Friendly staff.

I could give the hotel five stars, but because of an issue with the elevators, I wouldn't. Two of the three elevators were out of service. You could say, "Ah, these things happen, especially during a long weekend when it's hard to find professionals to fix them," but then you look at the inspection plate on the working elevator and see that the annual inspection was supposed to happen three months ago...

Came with my 11months old daughter and my husband for 2 nights in a superior room with free minibar. The staff was very friendly and accommodating also in the restaurant. The Mexican dinner was very good but what really made a difference was the included breakfast that was amazing. Huge free parking and location very close to Basel and France. We requested a crib for our baby and the pack n play we found was perfect, even with baby pillow blanket and cute snoopy linen. We expected the minibar to be refilled the second day but that did not happen as well as the cleaning. Nobody came to clean our room, but again, we stayed only 2 nights so it was ok.

We stayed one night. The room was huge and the price was excellent. Really great value overall! The hotel feels a bit older, especially the carpets, but it doesn’t feel run-down at all. The staff were friendly, and the restaurant and bar looked appealing.

The only downside is getting there by public transport: it’s about a 10-minute walk along a busy road from the nearest tram stop. There’s a bus stop right in front of the hotel, but the schedule is infrequent and only goes to Weil am Rhein station, not Basel.

The location of the hotel is ideal specially it is just right beside the exit of autobhan. Big rooms and comfortable beds. Easy to find and just beside Lidl and Aldi. Lots of free parking space. The staff were very helpful, when we arrived there is only 1 receptionist and even though she was a trainee she did her best to help us. The breakfast buffet was good as well.

The entire hotel really needs renovation. Out of 3 elevators only 1 is operational (technical reasons). You can literally hear all the noise from the hallway in your room and air is getting inside the window, i woke up 6 in the morning because of the whistle of air coming from the window (quick fix i placed towels in the gap).

An oldie but goldie hotel built in American style, just near the border. Spacey, comfortable rooms and overall atmosphere of "shelter from the storm", since the industrial landscape of Rhein area is not that welcoming. Cozy bar and restaurant in the hotel. There is a small sauna but don't expect a spa center. Rooms and hallways are decorated with beautiful paintings (and signed) which I wish more hotels did - add artsy vibe to the whole thing. Breakfasts are fantastic, I urge you not to oversleep it (until 10:30). Perfect to relax after the long drive.

The facilities, room furniture are quite old and could be not everyone's cup of tea but i enjoyed the vibe. The fridge in the room was missing which is no-go for 4-star hotel (needs to be fixed).

Strategic position to stop for one night when driving before entering or after exiting Switzerland. Very good breakfast. Big rooms. Competitive price.

We have been there twice in 8 days. Only one elevator working, apparently it's weeks/months that situation is the same, looking at comments. We couldn't use the restaurant as once it was fully booked, and the second time it was closed for unknown reasons. The whole hotel looks very old, vintage rooms, definitely needs a refresh. If it wasn't for the nice breakfast, we would probably have looked for something else, but overall it's OK.

Bed king size, new bathroom in the room we got compared to the one we had in the past. Strategic position to stop by when travelling from north to south and vice versa

Only one elevator working. It was like that also 8 months earlier, during our first stay. And apparently elevators were not working even in the months before then. The breakfast was good and enough in quantity, but the new formula is limiting as there is no possibility to mix different flavors. Moquette is meh
