Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Great location, very close to central station and tram stops. Really convenient for exploring the city and zoo, as well as further afield. The hotel is not staffed 24/7 but the adjacent hotel (which is part of the same group) is, and they can assist with check in/out, bookings and other queries. Everyone was really friendly. Not all of the hotel is accessible by lift so if this is needed, let the hotel know when booking. We would stay here again.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The Staff at the hotel were all so lovely. They were all really friendly and helpful. Can’t compliment them enough! Hotel its self is decent for the price. Clean and comfortable. The room we stayed in had a decent radiator and air conditioning, a nice size room overall, & decent bathroom with an excellent shower. Hotel location is brilliant, loads of local transport options right outside, and the train station to further afield is a minute walk. In the interest of a totally honest review, there were a couple of slight downsides. The location of the hotel means it is obviously a little noisy at times, but not so bad that it would be a real complaint. I am a light sleeper and was woken up a couple minutes of times during our stay, not a huge issue. Lastly, breakfast wasn’t great. It wasn’t the worst and you’d definitely find something if you’re not too fussy (fine for a coffee and pastry) but there wasn’t a whole lot of options and everything that should be hot was cold by time we got there, so we only used the breakfast facilities once during our stay. We unfortunately didn’t have the time in the end to try the main restaurant, however the food looked and smelled wonderful and we heard good things about it from other visitors. Overall though, fab hotel for the price in a really good location for exploring the city and nearby places, with wonderful and helpful staff.

This was a slightly strange maze of three inter-connected hotels but having had trouble locating which of the three reception points was working, I got checked in to a very nice room. Very convenient for rail station and old town. Excellent on site restaurant

Great location, convenient to train and trams, walk from train station! Easy walking to local attractions such as the zoo, and restaurants. The free Basel card means free transport on the trams that pass by the hotel door. We received an upgraded room which was wonderful, very spacious,clean and quiet. Staff have been very welcoming and helpful with information and luggage lifting for tired travellers. Recommend and will stay again.
