    breakfast issues

    I recently stayed here for three nights and it was better than my last trip to basel. The room was spacious and clean, with a lovely garden area to unwind. The staff went above and beyond to, exceeding my expectations.

    breakfast options were somewhat limited.

    spacious suite

    soft pillows
    minor discomfort

    I loved the spacious Junior Suite and the lovely garden area for relaxing. The breakfast was delightful, featuring fresh pastries. Only downside was the pillows, they were too soft for my liking. 😊

    We had a fantastic time exploring the area with friends! The location was perfect for visiting both the enchanting Basel Tattoo and the spectacular International Circus Festival. The staff were friendly and helped us with dinner reservations on a holiday. Plus, borrowing bikes from the hotel made our stay even better since we got to ride around and see everything.

    Great spot near the old town!

    Spent 2 nights in a cozy room and absolutely loved it! The location is super convenient to explore the old town. just a short walk. Staff was super friendly and gave awesome local tips. Plus, the garden area is a nice touch. My only issue was that breakfast could’ve had more variety, but it was still okay.

    Recommend it for the considerate traveler

    Had a great time there, real unexpected perks, you know? The free botanical gardens across the street were a nice touch and a great way to start the day. The breakfast was solid with a view that was pretty excellent too.

    Sure, it wasn’t exactly a bargain, but the quality made it all worth it.

    Clean room, friendly staff, nice garden area for relaxing, and a free transportation card for getting around. Room faced a busy street, so it can get noisy at night. Also, the air conditioning could be improved. Enjoyed the nearby bike rental for exploring the area easily.

    Perfect Location and Friendly Staff

    I had a wonderful stay at this hotel! The room was spacious and beautifully designed, making me feel right at home. The breakfast offered a fantastic variety, including fresh homemade pastries that set the tone for the day. The staff went above and beyond to assist me with local tips and making me feel welcome, especially Miriam at the front desk who was incredibly helpful. One small improvement could be made with the air conditioning during my stay. it was a bit warm at night.

    Free local transportation card, Proximity to historical sites, Spacious bathrooms

    The hotel really requires better soundproofing to block out street noise!!! I found the air conditioning unit poorly designed and quite ineffective, not to mention the irritating plumbing sounds during the night.
