Cl, Netherlands

Location is excellent for touring historic Basel and very easy access to train station. Public transit system makes getting around very easy and there are lots of places to eat and the entire old town within a short walk of the hotel. Room had a balcony that looked right out on the historic city gate. Breakfast was delicious. Hotel staff were awesome. They shared a lot of ideas for things to do and some great recommendations for restaurants. I would definitely stay here if returning to Basel and would recommend it to anyone I know who plans to visit there.

Gregory, United States of America

We had a huge room, perfectly clean and new. The streetcar was just outside hotel; the trams run all the time, and it's easy to go anywhere.

Sydney, United States of America

Friendly and professional staff, comfortable room and delicious breakfast buffet. Excellent location, across the historical old city entrance gate ("Spalentor") and the botanical garden. Direct bus from/to the train station.

“Very pleasant hotel and the best value for money in Basel”
- • Business trip
- • Solo traveler
- • Standard Double Room (1 Adult)
- • Stayed 3 nights
- • Submitted from a mobile device
눉Not really objection but would be great if reception is 24/7 although they solved it with enterance code and keys left for you in the envelope in case you arrive after 23h - Switzerland style
눇Staff!!! Ladies on the reception are one of the most professional and pleasant I met (and I have almost 100 reviews only on booking.com). Nothing is problem for them to do. In addition they upgraded my room FOC. Room was very spacious and clean with nice balkony and comfort bed. WI-Fi excellent. Very nice small bar next to reception. Breakfast quite rich. Parking in hotel rented garage just across the street. Location- 7 min walk to downtown with tram line in front of the hotel. This is the best value for money I found in Basel so far.

눉Hotel is at a junction so some rooms probably not suitable for light sleepers.
눇Very helpful and courteous staff. Absolutely clean and well-maintained property and room. Comfy bed. Having a tiny balcony that caught the late afternoon sun was a bonus. Opposite the botanic gardens, and two minutes from an excellent gelateria. Old Town a maximum of five minutes away on foot. Easy to get to from the airport via a connection at the main SBB rail station.
