The elevator was wonderful. It was very hot during our stay so the lack of AC was felt but not their fault. We enjoyed our stay and the convenient location

Great location, friendly staff.
Great hotel - was able to let me into my room a bit early which was appreciated. Also upgraded my room as I’m 193cm and the staff said my original room may be a bit small!
Bit of an older style decor etc but clean and functional.
Great location on Clarastrasse, but quiet in room at back.

Great value for the money. Great location - walking distance to all areas - team right outside. On busy street that room faced on to but when doors to balcony were closed it was very sounds proof. Small room but very cute, clean, and well appointed - good beds. Wanted for nothing.

A very comfortable hotel, clean, friendly staff. The only thing I would say is they need to update their towels they are very thin.

Good spot in Basel
very good hotel in right spot.
Trams leave almos from the door. Walk to river or to old town is not a big task.
Public transportation is free in Basel if you have hotel reservation. Excellent!
