Close to transport links and good breakfast.

Hotel was close to the train station and bus back to the airport. Breakfast room on the top floor was good for choice of food and views. One of our rooms had a strange smell when we arrived but it faded over time.

Really friendly reception staff! So helpful in telling us how to navigate the city. Anja and Palmeria (I think. Sorry for misspelling). Lovely people. The hotel pillows are bad though! Very flat.

A very pleasant stay

A lovely hotel - we made several minor requests of reception staff and they were fulfilled cheerfully and promptly. Room was clean and comfortable and the hotel is very near the railway station and other transport links.

David, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

The continental breakfast buffet was excellent! Unlimited cappuccinos (or any other coffee you would like), meuselli with fresh berries, lovely fresh bread, eggs, bacon, cold cuts, cheeses, fresh fruit - everything you could desire.
Corinne, 4-night trip

8/10 Very good

Ideal place for proximity to the train station and the room is very comfortable. No staff at reception which makes it feel less secure. Check in is self service but easy. No Wi-Fi in rooms, only in lobby.
Nitin, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Very clean. Great location near the train station and bus to the airport, plus excellent public transportation for getting around the city. The staff was super nice and helpful. I would definitely stay again.

4-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Self check-in can be a bit fiddly but everything else is very decent and close to Basel SBB station (where a basement level supermarket is). Staff from adjacent (associated) hotels would help you if needed. Comfortable bed, big screen & complementary espresso machine. Happy to stay again.

10/10 Exceptional

Good location

Automated check-in works, but there are also friendly staff. Rooms are comfortable, and the price/quality ratio is good. Breakfast is pretty basic and pre-cutting the loaves means they can be a little stale
