Rooms were comfortable, the only issue i would say is the additional bed for child was a ver small sofa. Not one that opens into a bed, just a sofa with bedding. If this had been clearer when booking i would have booked a bigger room. Other than that everything was good

Staying here for Women’s Euros & there was a great atmosphere & buzz around the hotel & Basel in general. The staff were very friendly and helpful. Facilities were great, room was lovely & large with the added bonus of a bath. Breakfast had everything you could expect. The fridge in the room was also welcomed to store my insulin in. Overall a great stay.

Clean and spatial. Staff friendly and efficient. Great breakfast. The only complaint is when the bathroom light is turned on it lights up the whole room through the glass partition between the bedroom and bathroom, so when one goes to the toilet at night the other person sharing the room may wake up also if s/he is sensitive to light.

Smooth check in. Room very quiet despite being next to lift. We booked a family room, room was small for a family of four, we were just staying one night before our flight so it was fine but would have been a struggle if staying longer.

The ambiance and indoor was really great and friendly staff. Only thing which we suffered with was extremely hot indoors. We asked for air conditioning which was apparently not possible when the building heating is on. It was really hard for us to sleep as we were boiling hot. The kind staff helped us open window (which we could not by ourselves since the city bylaw does not allow people to open windows). but that did not help
