The service is exceptionally friendly and attentive, ensuring a memorable experience. The location is conveniently close to public transport, making it ideal for travelers. The dining options are good but slightly pricey. Overall, a great value for money stay.
My stay at the hotel was a fantastic experience. The rooms were nice, very clean, and had a huge, comfy bed. The atmosphere was a bit cold, but everything was super clean, spacious, and comfortable. The location was great, right at the train station and next to all the trams. The service was polite and friendly, although there was a small hiccup with our booking. The dining could have been more elaborate, but the organic products were a nice touch.
The hotel offers cozy rooms with a great bathroom, although slightly pricey. The service is top-notch, ensuring a pleasant stay in Basel. The location is superb, right by the tram station for easy access. The dining options are outstanding, and the facilities are well-maintained.
I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The location was fantastic, being right at the Main Station with easy access to transportation. The rooms, though quiet, were smaller than expected, especially compared to another hotel I had stayed in before. The service was excellent, with attentive and conscientious staff. However, dining was a bit pricey, and the breakfast options were limited.
The hotel offers elegant and spacious rooms with good air conditioning, perfect for surviving hot days in Basel. The rooms are beautifully appointed, clean, large, with wood floors, strong showers, and a view of the trams out front. The service is friendly, but could benefit from improved customer service training. The location, though close to the train station, can feel somewhat seedy with many homeless and beggars around. The dining experience exceeded expectations with delicious and plentiful dishes, but the water for tea wasn't hot enough. Facilities are well-maintained and satisfactory.
My stay at this hotel was fantastic! The location is superb, right in front of the Basel train and tram station, making it extremely convenient to explore the area. The rooms are impeccable, with a new feel and excellent amenities like fast wifi and a luxurious breakfast spread. The service was exceptionally friendly, going above and beyond to make me feel welcome.
