Clean, comfortable, quiet and friendly

We really enjoyed our stay - located very close to the train station (where the airport bus also stops), and old town so super convenient. Very quiet despite being close to a road. Super friendly and helpful reception (providing maps of the city, Basel card, tips for getting around the city easily and onwards travel) and a very clean and comfortable stay for a good price. I would stay here again for sure

So easy to get to from the airport. #30 bus stopped right outside of the hotel to take us to our ridership. Staff was very friendly. The hotel was a 5 minute walk to the Christmas markets, dining and shopping. Wood stay there again!

Lovely welcome from the check in staff with a welcome drink and snack which was very much needed after a long day. The hotel is by a bus stop and the number 30 goes to basel sbb or its a 15 min walk. The cosy suit was clean and had a large sofa bed which had been set up for my daughter coffee machine and tv, and a separate room with a double bed and tv. The bed was very comfy and there were about 5 english tv channels which was a nice surprise. The shower room was nice and had a door to the bedroom and hallway. Shower gel and shampoo was provided with towels. We were also able to leave our cases there the following morning which was helpful whilst we visitied the zoo. Which was also only a 10 min walk away, and half price with the basel card we were given. Id definitely stay here again whilst in Basel.

Quite near to central station and old center of the town. The staff was very friendly and informative about what to do in the town. The interior is a bit aged and the bathroom was small but very OK for the price.
