Would stay again
The location was ideal! Next to a square with a farmer's market, a local pharmacy and grocery market was across the street in different directions. Easy walking to many sites, but also right on the trolly/tram line. We were able to easily walk to the two Christmas markets in town. The room was spacious, and the bathroom was large. I would absolutely stay at this location again on a future visit.

Multi lingual staff was a major benefit and the accompanying Basel Card was extremely useful. Nice pillows (they matter) and an up to date appointed room.

Too loud!
Beautiful hotel. Beautiful room with a comfortable bed and great pillows. However, we went in December and the room was about 75-80 degrees. We opened the window to get air and all we heard was the Tram all night. The hotel is right on the Tram line. (Like 15 feet from it). Whole it was very convenient to the Christmas markets, I would not stay there again.

Book it, you won't be disappointed!
I was in Basel for a business conference at the congress centre. I decided to book this hotel to be in the nicer shopping/restaurant district with a short tram ride (6 mins) to the conference centre and I'm so glad I did. Many of my colleagues at the conference were jealous of this location! This hotel was safe, clean, friendly and the breakfast was delicious. Very happy with this stay. I needed electrical converters and Ironing board and both were brought to my room right away. I'd stay here again in a heartbeat.

Excellent location and service but hotel not to ou
Excellent welcome and service. Also excellent location for old town and shops/restaurants/trams. Unfortunately, we didn’t like the hotel itself but that’s just our taste. We found the decor a bit dismal and clinical. Also, we didn’t like the weird bathroom facilities.Shower and basin in the bedroom and separate toilet near the door. Style over function.

Service was friendly and always helpful. Extra benefits included. Free mini bar and a Basel pass which gave us half price off at museums and free tram rides. Breakfast buffet was very good.

Beautiful Marketplace Basel Hotel
What a beautiful hotel in the Marketplace area of Basel. We only stayed one night before a flight out of Zurich, but wish we could have stayed longer (definitely in the future). We arrived early from our prior travels and the reception staff helped us get settled and had us in an incredible room. The breakfast was good and opened early so it was great to do before a train trip.

The hotel is in a central location, just a short walk from the Rhein and lots of shops and dining. Our room is immaculate, attractive, and well-outfitted with eco-friendly features, an excellent shower, and comfortable bed. The staff were friendly and helpful and the hotel restaurant served a delicious buffet breakfast with fresh fruit, cheeses, freshly-baked breads and croissants, etc. Our stay has been delightful!

The hotel room is very well designed and decorated. Bedding and towels are very comfortable. Overall we had a very pleasant stay. Hotel staff were very professional and helpful when needed. The hotel is located next to the city hall where there are many tram lines passing by. Everywhere in the old town is walkable and there are plenty of eateries and shops nearby. This hotel will be our top choice when we visit Basel again.

Great customer service. We arrived to the hotel around 10:15am after disembarking our River Cruise. They were very accommodatng and were able to give us a very nice room to check in early. The hotel is conveniently located near old town. It is very convenient for transportation service to the train station via their tram system in order to head to Zurich airport. The team is just a few steps away from the hotel making it easy with all your luggage in tow.

We waited at check in for 10 mins before the girls in the room adjacent came over to check us in. We had two rooms and the one for our kids the AC did not work. The hotel provided a fan which me at the window was left open and it’s super noisy this location. The hotel did nothing to try and find them a room with AC. The check out person was very nice but my kids did not sleep….
