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.

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.

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

Great stay, excellent location next to train station but facing away from crowded area. Directly next to tons of transportation - which is free for tourists! Breakfast was nice in gorgeous panoramic dining room. To clear up the piece about the dual front desks - the hotels are CONNECTED -its a 10 second walk to the other hotel. I didn't have the need to do so. Very happy with stay, will be back for sure.

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.

Even though it was close to the train station and main bus stops (making it super easy to get to where we wanted to explore), the room was quiet and spacious. Highly recommend!

Hotel is in an excellent location and the rooms are reasonable and clean. No reception service between certain hours and you are directed to the larger sister hotel around the corner. Breakfast was adequate but service was slightly lacking.
