Breakfast exceeded expectations and conveniently added to our bill. Air conditioning worked very well specially with the heat wave in Europe. Room was decent although not modern only maybe we just came off from a luxury cruise and not actually comparable. We got the right location for a hotel walkable to the main downtown for shopping and restaurants!!!!

The hotel room was big, clean, quiet, and air conditioned. We had four people comfortably sleep in one room. The location was perfect, at the edge of the old town and just two blocks from the river. Breakfast was excellent. Staff were kind and helpful. Will stay again when next in Basel. A+ place.

Location convenient to Tram 11 stop. Walking distance to a few restaurants & small market. Bed was very firm. No coffee maker in room. A/C good in room. Lobby and restaurant were warm. Need to climb 3-4 stairs to get to small elevator. Church bell rang at 7 am both days I was there. Overall, Would rate 3/5.
