The room was lovely - spacious, modern and with a very comfortable bed and a rocking chair. The bathroom was good too, and well equipped with toiletries. Staff are all very friendly and helpful, and there is a nice bar by the entrance. Secure off-street parking is available locally, and the hotel is very well-situated. The centre of Basel is an easy walk, and there are lots of good places to eat nearby. A transport card is included in the stay, allowing use of trains and buses locally too.

We liked everything.

++ Spacious rooms: Plenty of room to relax and spread out, making it a comfortable stay. ++ Friendly crew: The staff are approachable and accommodating, adding a warm touch to the experience. ++ Peaceful ambiance: Generally quiet, though Friday nights can get a bit noisy with late partygoer arrivals. ++ Comfortable beds: The beds are cozy and ensure a restful night’s sleep. ++ Nice shower and bathroom: Modern, clean, and well-maintained facilities add to the comfort. ++ Thick walls: Good soundproofing minimizes noise from neighboring rooms. ++ Clean: Overall, the hotel maintains high standards of cleanliness.

-- Distant from the train station: Be prepared for a walk to and from the station (20-30 minutes) -- Delayed housekeeping: Rooms for stay-over guests are cleaned last, with priority given to new guest check-ins, leading to a 5-6 hour delay for service. -- No free breakfast: Breakfast isn’t included, which might be a drawback for some guests.

We were pleased. Location is easy to walk. (But not in the heart of the old squares, if you prefere). This street is a scene of daily life and city dwellers' area than tourists' spot. We have stayed in 6-7 different locations in Basel before, but we loved this one too. Our window opened to a beatiful historic building and Spalentor. Botanic Park is just beside. Youngsters, students to seniors, byclers to dog walkers.. Afternoon sun in the room and balcony was bonus in April. Hotel was very clean, staff was very kind and helpful as usual in Switzerland. Small entrance, bar and garden than expected but usefull and cosy for drink wine or coffee. Our room was airy. Free Basel Card, free WiFi, Nespresso and fruit treats was pleasing. And we were very pleased by the breakfast and service.

Duvets are quite thick and we got sweat.. Pillows are too soft and thin for us. A standart pillow might fit everyone.

The hotel is in an excellent location for exploring Basel. It is an easy walk to the historic centre along a beautiful street filled with interesting independent shops. It is also easy to travel around by bus and tram both of which stop a few steps away from the hotel and hotel stays come with a Basel Card which provides free travel on transport and discounted entry to museums. The staff were all very friendly and helpful - English is spoken and there is a nice little bar area offering a wide variety of drinks. Our room was large and comfortable. The bed was king size and also very comfortable. A good amount of storage is provided with a separate area for hanging bulky coats. Tea and coffee is provided and replenished daily. Bathroom was a reasonable size with a good shower. The room was cleaned every day.

There is a bit of noise from the road. It didn’t bother us too much but if you are a light sleeper that could be a problem Wi-Fi was sometimes weak.

We sought an overnight hotel in Basel code to town so that we could have stroll and meal after our late journey, and we needed a parking place. We found this great place, which exceeded our expectations. Very helpful and responsive staff, very convenient parking and a nicely furnished large room made for a pleasant surprise. The hotel has a great location close to a chummy old town gate and a street full of nice buildings, a great restaurant (Zum Tell) and a lovely evening exploration of the old town. Breakfast was good, other guests were pleasant, we were very happy and likely to return.

Great location, easy to arrive from the train station, even by foot. Also from the hotel you can easily get to the city center by foot or nr.3 tram. The room was spacious with everything that you need. The beds are large and very comfortable, the staff was very nice and helpful. At the hotel you also have a fusball table, billiards and a gym which is quite in handy if you are coming here with friends and want to have some fun inside. Overall we loved staying here and we are certain what we will return to Basel and at this hotel.

The only downside at this hotel, if you can call it a downside, is that being so close to the city center it can be a bit noisy outside even at night, but the windows do isolate the sound as much as they can so it's not that bad and you can get a good night sleep.

We liked everything here. The staff was just outstanding! So friendly and helpful to each and every person we heard them come in contact with. We liked it so much we would have stayed longer if we had been able to adjust our trip. We would both be thrilled to come back and visit. Pause, have a drink at the bar! You won’t regret it! The rooms are not the largest, but the space has been used in such a way that it’s very comfortable. Next to main road and entrance to Old town, but very quiet. The bed was very comfortable. The small fridge in the room was stocked with things that were exactly what we were in the mood for when we needed a late night snack.

We only wished we could have stayed longer.

All the staff from reception, cleaning and restaurant were friendly and helpful. The communication from the hotel was excellent and helped with recommendations for a restaurant to book a meal for my wife's birthday, the hotel also added an extra touch to the room to celebrate the birthday. It has an excellent location just opposite the old town entrance, and thanks to the hotel's website I found I had free travel on the buses and trams. This could be used as a airport transfer using the number 50 then 30 bus to the bus stop opposite the hotel. We would definitely stay again.

A very nice hotel with very friendly staff. I had a very comfortable stay at this hotel and felt very welcome. The room I got (which was an upgrade) was very large, comfortable and had all facilities one could want. The breakfast was also very good offering a nice view of the surroundings. Finally the (free) botantic gardens across the street are a nice place to start your day or take some time out.

Not much to dislike really. The location is a bit out of the way if you do not have a car, but there are good public transport options to the central station. There are also an hospital and fire station nearby meaning regular sirens (hardly noticable in the room).
