Wonderful hotel in Basel.
Fantastic location, one block from train station. Two blocks from Hertz to drop off the car. The local street car was out front and a quick 2 stops to the Christmas market. Staff was kind and knowledgeable! There is a bar on lobby floor to play games on large table. A big five star experience!

Carl, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

The hotel is in an excellent location for travel in and out of Basel Bahnhof, and walking around central Basel. Service and the buffet breakfast are both very good. I had a cosy single room with thick window glazing to block most noise from the street below. I did not experience internal noise from other guests and slept well. The choice of eating options at the hotel and in it’s immediate vicinity is limited but there are great cafes and restaurants a short tram ride or a 10 minute away.
Malcolm, 4-night trip

8/10 Very good

Lovely personel, perfect location. But I paid extra for unlimited mini-bar.. and that was just a fridge with bottles of water ... on the hallway. Didn't even have Toblerone!!!
Aksel, 1-night trip

Great little hotel near Basel SBB. Close to the downtown. We only had the chance to stay one night before an early train ride. It worked perfectly. Very, very friendly and efficient check in. Rooms are very clean and well decorated.

Nice place to spend for a city trip. Well located to public transportation and in walking distance to almost all cultural attractions. Ideal to go to the Morgenstraich!
