    Friendly staff, very clean and well presented, great location.

    The hotel room didn’t have Aircon and it was very warm at night.

    Property response:

    Dear Teresa, thank you for your kind words. We're very happy you appreciated our service and the cleanliness of the hotel. And yes, just in front of the railway station and nearby the city center and beach, our location is top! We hope te welcome you again - and don't hesitate to book one of our new rooms with airconditioning.

    Excellent location, breakfast itself and breakfast place was good

    We got an old (outdated), small room with carpet which we did not like - no chance for a room-change since the hotel was full. Parking was a nightmare on May 1st (everything was full) - recommend pre-booking on busy days! Value for money was not good enough.

    Property response:

    Dear Andreas, thank you for taking time to write a review about your stay. We are happy you appreciated the location and the quality of our kitchen. Very true that 1st of May was extremely busy! But about the choice of your room (a classic standard room) : The older part of our building is maintained just as well as the renovated rooms. Each room gets the same attention, is spotless and there are no defects. We are aware that there is a difference with the newest rooms but also the price is different! Of all the 42 rooms, there are only 5 left with carpet... Guests can always indicate their preference in advance and we certainly take that into account. Hopefully you'll give it another chance, booking another type of room, and of course pre-booking the parking in advance, which we advise in all of our booking confirmations. We even offer a preferential rate at the Q-Park if you book a room in Le Bassin. Hope to welcome you again!

    fine dining room well sound proofed

    room soooo small (bathroom good)

    Property response:

    Dear Monica, thank you for your positive comments. We are happy you appreciated your stay and our fine kitchen, which is always an added value for a hotel. We have rooms of different types, and therefore also of different prices. You have chosen a classic room, with standard dimensions, budget-friendly. But we also have very spacious, luxurious rooms, with a fridge and Nespresso machine, and a large bathroom. Maybe a good idea for your next stay in Le Bassin ? Hope to welcome you again!

    The location was very convenient

    Small room. The door to the bathroom is actually a set of 2 doors that you usually see for wardrobes. Extremely inconviniet.

    Property response:

    Dear guest, thank you for your review and for your appreciation about our ideal location. We do have different types of room, according to one's budget and preference. The room of your choice is a standard room that is very correct and budget-friendly, but indeed not the largest. We have arranged everything in that available space as functionally as possible. Hence the swinging door, because a normal door was simply not possible in that space. We'll be happy to welcome you back in one of our many large, spacious rooms.

    Nice people. Well decorated room. Unfortunately very loud at night. Room 105 is near lift and kitchen with motor noise all night on and off. Unfortunately impossible to get a night's sleep. Food in restaurant and bar is of good quality and very tasty.

    Noise at night

    Property response:

    Dear guest, dear Anja, thank you for the positive words about our staff and the rooms. We are also happy you appreciated our restaurant and bar, where one can have a lovely evening and delicious food & drinks. We are aware of the noise you suffered from, and we apologize for the nuisance. This was due to our brandnew rooms we have built on the first floor. But in the meantime, we got to work and built a complete insulation cell around the engine. The nuisance has been resolved! And so we would like to welcome you again. Thanks again for your stay.

    The breakfast offers a variety of excellent produce in a relaxing atmosphere. The view from the hotel is lovely (though not particularly quiet, yet pleasant). Overall a very nice place to be!

    The double room was a little on the small side but there are others, larger ones, available which we have had the pleasure to experience. All in all, a great hotel!

    Thank you very much for the nice review and the positive words about your stay in our hotel. We're very happy you liked it so much and hope to welcome you back - maybe in a larger room ? The choice is up to you. Welcome !

    This is a smart, clean well-run hotel with friendly, courteous staff. The location is very good but surprisingly peaceful at night. Breakfast is excellent and is served in a large area with a good choice of spacious seating

    The weather was too hot for me and although that wasn't the hotel's fault, aircon in the room would have helped me. I was told on leaving that aircon is planned. There was a mobile fan in the room which I used all the time. Travelling solo, of course I booked a single. The bath/shower room was spacious but the bed area was small and I was amazed to find 2 huge cushions on the bed. These took up space when I moved them to the chair. There was a kettle and some tea and coffee but no surface to sit at to drink and of course no space for a bedside table

    Property response:

    Dear Margaret, thank you for taking the time for a positive review. And thank you for appreciating our staff and their friendly helpfulness! Our kitchen serves only fresh and quality products, both in the morning for your breakfast, in the afternoon and in the evening. We are happy you enjoyed your meals. We are aware that the rooms can sometimes be warm - but then life mainly takes place outside. We already provide a fan for each room. A very heavy investment such as air conditioning will probably be installed in new-build rooms in the future. Furthermore, we do understand that you might find the room small, but there is indeed in each room certainly a chair and a table, or at least a wide windowsill, especially provided for that purpose. And at the head of the bed a cupboard was provided that serves as a bedside table. and above all : not all single rooms have the same size , some are a lot larger, please do not hesitate to ask for one of those. And be most welcome again at Hotel du Bassin !

    Very friendly and accommodating staff, room was a good size. Breakfast was nice. Location is great, right beside the harbour, bus station and train station. Plenty of amazing things to see and do within walking distance. Beach is only a 5 minute walk. Staff more than happy to store my luggage whilst my room was being prepared ahead of check-in time.

    Tumbler was filthy - had lipstick and muck on it. Was obvious that the cleaner didn't replace it since last guest. No handsoap in bathroom area. Safe was broken.

    Property response:

    Dear Victor, thank you so much for your kind and positive review. Indeed, our location is great, close to the city center, station and the sea. Our city is centrally located on the coast and there is always a lot to do in the summer, glad you enjoyed it. At Le Bassin, you can indeed check in earlier or drop off your luggage so that you can enjoy your stay to the fullest. Furthermore, we have really taken your comment regarding cleaning to heart: these are certainly things that are unacceptable and we have also taken immediate measures to prevent this further. We apply strict hygiene measures and this must have been a human but exceptional error for which we apologize. On the other hand it should be mentioned that all safes in the room function properly, the instructions for use are included and they are checked regularly. We do hope to welcome you back in the future!
