The location was excellent, except for the many steps to get down to the old city. If you have knee trouble (like me), it’s not the best choice, but if you have strong knees, it’s wonderful. Very friendly staff, quiet but central location, about 10 minutes’ walk from most sites.

Staff couldn't have been more helpful and friendly. Well situated hotel for exploring Basel. Instead of Aircon, our room had a fan and a balcony which we much preferred. Enjoyed our time there.

If I'm ever back in Basel this is my hotel! The most helpful staff. Great room. You can leave bags if your flight is a few hours after generous noon checkout. A lovely garden on which to enjoy your complimentary arrival drink. Great all round.

This city hotel was clean, the linens were impeccable, the breakfast sumptuous, and the garden is a nice touch for having breakfast. You'll use a cab to get there. Also the staff was very helpful.

Solo stay

I chose this property for the air conditioning but be aware the rooms in the back of the hotel don't have AC, like many hotels in Basel or in Switzerland overall. The rooms facing the street have the sun on the windows which justifies the installation of AC.
