- Johannes (9/5): Wochenendausflug zum Lyobâle 2026 in Basel - Das Hotel ist einerseits zentrumsnah gelegen, auf der anderen Seite ist die Autobahn Richtung Deutschland bzw. weiter in die Schweiz nicht weit. Sowohl das Stadtzentrum, der Badische Bahnhof als auch der Hauptbahnhof (SBB) sind mit dem Tram leicht zu erreichen. Das Hotel hat eine Tiefgarage. Es ist mir nichts Negatives aufgefallen
- Bengisu (10/5): -

- Moe (9/5): - Very close to the tram stop, easy to get around. Some restaurants and a supermarket are also nearby. The room was very clean. A lot of amenities (e.g. disposable slippers, free drinks etc.) that I don't epect for 3 stars hotel were there. Quality and various breakfast were available in a nice sunroom. Staff, especially people taking care of breakfast were pleasant. A fewminor things - Not much sound-proofing:I could hear people talking, coughing etc. A bed was a bit too soft and a pillow was also a bit too big for me. Showerhead needs maintenance; when I took it for the first time, it fell off suddenly. It was easily fixable on my end but the water was leaking from the connection part. It also look ed a bit outdated with limescale. Only the showerhead was questionable compared to all other things spotless.
- Melanie (10/5): Habe bereits meinen nächsten Aufenthalt dort gebucht - Alles perfekt
- Мария (10/5): -
- Regula (8/5): -
- Suzanne (9/5): Angenehm und funktionell - Unkompliziert und freundliches Checkin und Chechout. Ruhiges Zimmer in der Nacht, bequemes Bett. Alles sauber. Wir waren auf der Durchfahrt und es war für unsere Bedürfnisse perfekt
- David (9/5): - Comfortable and quiet. Excellent breakfast Nothing
- Olayode (9/5): Worthwhile - Like the cleanliness Non available
- Lara (10/5): - Sehr freundliches Personal
Mega feines Frühstückbuffet
- Ligrezia (10/5): - Sehr gute Lage, mit ÖV nicht weit vom SBB Bahnhof.
Ich habe ein Gartenzimmer gewählt, ruhig mit schönem Blick. Konfortabel, Getränke aus Minibar gratis. Es hat alles was es für einen gemütlichen Aufenthalt braucht.
Frühstück ausserordentlich vielseitig, alles frisch und schmackhaft.
Gartenterasse einladend, mit plätscherndem Brunnen, Bäumen, Vögel, eine kleine Oase.
Essen wurde vom Restaurant nebenan bestellt, ebenfalls ein toller Service. Alles tiptop

- Dominic (9/5): Nettes Hotel zentral in Basel. - Sehr zentrale Location, freundliche Mitarbeiter, Möglichkeit einen Parkplatz dazuzubuchen.
Zimmer modern ausgestattet, sauber und ruhig (zum Innenhof), Getränke in der Minibar und Kaffee in der Lobby. Die härteste Matraze auf der ich je geschlafen habe, und, trotz winterlichen Temperaturen und offenem Fenster, war das Zimmer sehr heiss. Wir haben die Heizung runtergedreht, hat aber nichts genützt.
- Daniel (9/5): -
- Maurice (8/5): - Kostenlose Minibar, tolles Frühstück, super gelegen für Besuche in der Grenzacherstrasse. Tolles Entgegenkommen das Auto länger zu parken oder Dokumente bis zum nächsten morgen ausdrucken zu lassen. Rundum toller Service!
- Nathalie (9/5): Uitstekend hotel voor een citytrip Basel. - Een overweldigend goed ontbijt.
Goede matras.
Uitstekende ligging om de stad te voet te verkennen. Kamer erg warm en onmogelijk om de raam open te zetten gezien de drukkere straat.
- Astrid Levin Sina (5/5): - Die Extras (kostenlose Warmgetränke den ganzen Tag), der späte Check-Out und das die ausgedehnte Frühszückszeit sind sehr gut. Das Personal schien mir teilweise etwas unmotiviert. Das Zimmer war im Verhältnis überteuert.
- Gabriella (10/5): -
- Irene (9/5): -
- Maike (10/5): -
- Gilda (8/5): -
- Rudolf Weber (8/5): - Sehr gutes Frühstücksbuffett
- Andreas (10/5): Ein sehr empfehlenswertes Hotel in Basel - Sehr zentral, guter Service, kleines aber sehr praktisches und komfortables Zimmer mit einem 1A Bad. Toller kostenfreier Kaffee in der Lobby. Nichts!
- Emmanuel (8/5): - Emplacement, personnelle très professionnel.
Petit déjeuner
Boisons a disposition café ☕️ ****
Tramway très proche Chauffage dans la chambre caniculaire impossible de dormir sans ouvrir la fenêtre.
Pas de réglage de Chauffage problème.
- Kübra (8/5): -
- Agnes (10/5): Nice experience - The location was good and they offer free ticket to the public transportation in the city (trams and buses, including the airport bus). We learned that this is usual in Switzerland. But it’s a nice thing. They also offer free thè (high quality) and coffee and the you can drink the content of the monibar, no charge (2 coke, 2 water, 1 beer). The bed was a bit soft for us, but it’s very unique for an individual what he/she prefers. So it’s not really a complaint just an information for those who prefer harder matracess.
- Nathalie (10/5): Séjour formidable! - Excellent accueil - tout le personnel est très sympathique - très bonnes boissons offertes avec gentillesse - petit déjeuner magnifique avec produits excellents - super séjour Rien
- Willy (10/5): Sehr empfehlenswert an guter Lage - Sehr schön
