The staff were the highlight of our stay. They were all friendly and accommodating! Close to the Coop and tram station.
The hotel has four floors. For everyone’s awareness, the elevator goes only up to the third floor.
Good location next to tram stop Nicely renovated old building Elevator!!! Food in the restaurant was good (very pricey but I think that's normal for Basel). Walkable neighborhood Good value for the money.
They fixed some dirty bed lines really quick. Staff is so nice and helpful. Great tradicional restaurant on premise

Disliked: Amenities
Room was not a "Modern Double Room", not even close. You have no room in the shower so the door opens and floods the floor. Was supposed to have a coffe maker, none. Was supposed to include breakfast, none. Did not even have a do not disturb sign in the room or available. The two single beds just fit in the room, no proper padded chair as shown in photos.
Staff very helpful and attentive. Hotel is in a brilliant location for Christmas markets and transport links. Room was roomy and spotless, with towels changed everyday and bed made up. Good selection for breakfast every day
Located close to the tram network. Reception unmanned (call to get service). Decor tired. Room not particularly clean (though bathroom was). Bed ok. Evidence of repairs carried out with black tape. At the budget end of things

Spotless room, great amenities. EXCELLENT location for walking the streets and finding treasures. Very safe, never felt afraid. Front staff was simply charming, friendly and over the top understanding to our plight....we arrived 5 hours early for check in. It was raining, 8C degrees and miserable. Wonderful front staff took pity on us and checked us in early so we could warm ourselves and rest. She was a lifesaver.

The girl working the desk was amazingly helpful. The hotel is in a great location!
We didn’t eat in the restaurant so can’t comment on food. Staff pleasant, clean and comfortable room. Good central location, 10 min walk from market place, tram stop close by. My only negative is the strong smell of food throughout the hotel including corridors outside room due to a restaurant being attached and it wasn’t pleasant depending on what they were cooking.
Excellent service, friendly staff, good options for breakfast. Only downside, the safe was broken.

OK for a night in Basel. Warm welcome at reception and room was clean and functional, location of the hotel was good. Room was sold as "deluxe", however this just meant it was larger than the others based on customer reviews. Room felt tired. Bathroom had no window. Nothing luxurious about it!
