      private bathroom
      complimentary snack

      would stay here again without hesitation.

      Room was of adequate size with air conditioning, and a cozy private bathroom. TV had cable channels. The complimentary snack plate on Christmas was a nice touch. Early check-in was appreciated. Staff were super helpful and friendly. Close to the train station, making it easy to explore Basel.

      basil card
      narrow stairs
      poor layout

      included Basel Card, proximity to Basel SBB, unique and quirky layout

      No elevator service to all floors creates unnecessary hassle!!! The confusing maze-like navigation can lead to frustration. Room sizes were often misleading and sometimes tiny, not matching the online descriptions!!!

      friendly staff
      convenient location
      confusing layout
      no elevator

      Here’s what worked – and what didn’t

      The staff were incredibly professional and friendly, allowing late checkout at no charge! ! The free tram passes were a fantastic perk, ensuring easy access to explore the city.

      Be prepared for the maze-like layout. navigating the hallways can be confusing. The absence of an elevator is a major hassle, especially for those with heavy luggage.

      small room
      dated decor

      Conveniently located just steps away from the train station, the hotel offers air conditioning which was great for a restful night. The staff were incredibly helpful, providing everything I needed to navigate Basel easily. However, my room was quite small and the decor felt dated.

      great shower
      clean bathroom
      free basel card
      small room
      limited space

      I stayed in a Small Single Room for a night, and it surprised me. The room was nicer than I expected! The bathroom was superb, really clean and spacious with a great shower—definitely one of the best showers I've experienced in a hotel. The location was just a quick walk from the train station and even closer to the city center. Super convenient! I loved getting the free Basel card, too, for transport. Only downside was that the room was small, but for a quick stay, it worked well.

      convenient location
      children's zoo
      uncomfortable room

      We had a pleasant stay with our kids and two dogs. The hotel's proximity to the train station made it super convenient for exploring. We especially enjoyed a visit to the nearby children's zoo, which offers a safe space for kids to interact with animals.

      My wife says that the lack of an air conditioner made our room quite uncomfortable during the night.

      comfortable bed

      This place was a perfect match for a weekend excursion in Basel with definitely value for money. The bed in my room was enormous and very comfortable, making it easy to relax after a day of exploring. Make sure to ask for a quieter room if you're sensitive to noise.

      convenient transport
      comfy room
      poor sound insulation
      confusing layout
      limited amenities

      The stay offered convenient access to public transport and a lovely air-conditioned room with ample lighting and storage. However, the layout was confusing and the walls poorly insulated, allowing noise from corridors and housekeeping to disrupt sleep. Unfortunately, the amenities were limited, with a lack of sufficient sockets and outdated decor detracting from the overall experience.
