The hotel completely exceeded my expectations. The room was super modern and stylish (I loved the design details), and little touches like a refillable water bottle and a Dyson air purifier really stood out. The location is also spot on: an easy walk from the train station and close to all the main sights and great restaurants. I’m not sure what anyone could dislike, though to be fair, I was only there for one night… maybe not long enough to find any flaws! 😄 Would definitely stay again.

Lovely hotel with great service
Stayed in this hotel for 3 nights. The staff are all very friendly, helpful and knowledgeable. The room was cosy with a cool fit out and interesting items. We did have noise problems being next to the lift and the restaurant/bar playing loud music under us until late. The staff did an amazing job relocating us to a quieter room (even when it was fully booked out) and made sure we were happy.

The reception team were really accommodating and helpful.
The room was really clean and well designed, with thoughtful extras - the bag to use around the city and the colouring page were fun extras I wasn't expecting!

Everything was excellent except the AC!!
Being a foreigner in Switzerland, I would have liked the TV to be really able to show subtitles. That was nearly impossible to do.
The room was wonderfully located and very decently sized. The AC unit in the room was only adequate, and given the unusual heat at that time, an AC unit which could be adjusted would have been preferred. However, I did love the idea of getting away from the hyper-expensive AC systems as an idea.

Fantastic staff, relaxed vibe and amazing food
I had a great stay here for a week long business trip, the staff are friendly and ensure that you have a really enjoyable and stress free stay. The hotel itself has a trendy vibe but with everything you need including great breakfast, delicious food and drinks for day and evening as well. I’ll be heading back for my future trips to Basel!

An excellent experience
Room and hotel in general is in perfect condition and modernly decorated. They gave us free room upgrade which is wonderful. Breakfast has variety of options, even you can make your own waffle. Also, there is a library room for spending time with free coffee and tea. We are planning to stay again in soon.
