The hotel is very nice and in a good location! I would describe the staff as efficient but not overly friendly and it was disappointing there were no doorman to assist with bags etc. The restaurant was really good and here our server really was super friendly and our dinner was most enjoyable. Our room was clean, comfortable and well appointed with great WiFi.

Fourth floor room was large. Bed was comfortable. Everything seemed clean. TV and Wifi worked okay. Breakfast had many choices and the food was good. Staff were friendly and helpful. This hotel is located in a quiet neighborhood but is still in walkable distance to the Old Town. A bus stop is near, and the hotel provided bus passes . Didn't like that the room had no refrigerator. Bottled water was provided, but it wasn't cold.

This was a beautiful old building. The check in was easy, the gentleman at reception was very nice. The hotel was very clean and the room was nice. The main disappointment was no air conditioning or a fridge. The breakfast was in the next building close to where you got off the elevator. It is all downhill to the city centre (up on the way home). You get free wifi in hotel and at hotspots throughout Basil.

A great place to stay!!

This was an amazing place. They gave us a small attic room with 2 beds. My son greatly appreciated his own space. The room was immaculately clean. The hotel has a convenient seating area in the lobby with cell phone charging stations and free coffee, croissants and apples in the morning. We greatly appreciated the charging station as we did not have compatible Swiss plugs. We were a solid 20 mins walk from the old center but it was a lovely and easy walk. Great neighborhood and hotel grounds. We parked in their own underground parking garage. The staff were all very kind and helpful. Beautiful older building that has been wonderfully renovated without losing its charm.

Great location near Old Town.Our room is very spacious and the bathroom is wheelchair accessible. I would have liked more ceiling lights, but we managed. We walked 2-3 miles all over Basel and felt at ease and safe the whole time. There are several dining options nearby. One caution, the food is expensive. The room is NOT air conditioned, but it's July and the windows are open, the fan on, and we are very comfortable. I'd recommend a stay here.

Good value for money. Building has a certain charm, the rooms are rather spartan, but properly equipped. A bit hot during the heat wave, but it's not so bad. I didn't stay there for a long time, but it met my expectations, especially for the below average price. There are several streetcars not too far away, 5 min from the University, a grocery store at 3 min walk. Easy access to the train station, 8 min walk from the 50 to the airport.

A too hot stay

Nice building and staff. No air-condition and no fridge in the room, no posibility for ice cubes or cold bottles of water -so is was an unpleasantly hot stay. The breakfast buffet was only cold dishes and not any big changes from day to day.

L’hôtel dispose d’un parking couvert, il est situé au calme dans un jardin à proximité du centre-ville ce qui permet de s’y rendre à pied. Le restaurant propose un très bon petit-déjeuner dans un bâtiment moderne, vitré et donnant sur le jardin. L’endroit est très agréable.

Excellente surprise

Ce n'ique pour une nuit, mais c'était vraiment bien. L'hôtel est très propre et bien entretenu malgré l'âge du très joli immeuble. La salle de restaurant/ petit déjeuner était très propre et bien décorée. Le petit déjeuner était excellent. Franchement, c'est très bien. Tout proche de l'entrée du centre historique. Le seul bémol était que j'avais du mal à trouver l'entrée de l'hôtel, il faisait nuit et l'affiche vers la cour est très discrète. Fortement recommandé
