I had a very pleasant stay at ArtHouse. That is mainly due to the staff whom were all excellent. In particular the receptionist Till, who went out of his way to assist with an external problem I had in Basel. Another advantage to many hotels in Basel Is that they have 24h reception. Very useful for people arriving late in the city and are expecting deliveries, etc. during the busy ArtBasel week. Highly recommend!!

The hotel staff was excellent. The location of the hotel is perfectly placed in the old city easy to find and very close to the SBB train station. The rooms are beautifully updated. Have a very Swiss modern feel. I suggest getting a room on the front side of the hotel, preferably a higher floor.

We enjoyed our stay here very much, the location is very central to the train station and trams, as well as easily walkable to main tourist attractions. The hotel is on a bustling street with late night bars. The breakfast buffet is provided with fee, but it was very delicious.
