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….

We had booked a Junior Suite for 3 nights before embarking on a river cruise to Amsterdam. The property is new and shows. The room had high quality modern fixtures and lighting. It made our 20 year old home in the US look antique! The location is excellent. It is right next to a farmer's market and across from the tram station. The staff was friendly. We did not dine at their restaurant but it looked very nice. It is just a very cool hotel.

Great Hotel But Staff Makes it Super
Wonderful hotel located almost right in the Market Place where the quaint shops and enticing restaurants prevail. It also happens to be a transportation hub which is so convenient. The hotel staff is superb. I truly appreciated the responsiveness of the desk clerk who greeted us in English and obviously saw we were like the walking dead after a long flight from US . He immediately relieved us of our bags and brought us water. I think his name was David. But all the staff was great and eager to help with any detail. The room was perfect, very comfortable and clean. Amazingly the mini bar in the room was free. The hotel was close enough to both airport (35 euros taxi) and cruiseport (25 euros).

A Lovely Place in Basel Town
Welcoming service from moment we entered the hotel! Big, clean, comfortable room, with French doored Juliet terrace with romantic view! The terraced roof was also lovely! The hotel restaurant served good food in an inviting setting. The outside cafe was a perfect place to have a cocktail and watch the world go by!
