The hotel and staff are exceptional. The only reason I gave 4 stars is that our room was not ready at 3 PM which is check in time. We were comped a couple of drinks at the bar for our inconvenience.

The Hotel Marthof is lovely, clean and very well located. The breakfast is very nice. It is right over a tramline so it is not quiet. Our Signature room on the 5th floor was very warm but once we opened the window it was noisy. Loved the candy bar at checkout.

The hotel is in a central location, just a short walk from the Rhein and lots of shops and dining. Our room is immaculate, attractive, and well-outfitted with eco-friendly features, an excellent shower, and comfortable bed. The staff were friendly and helpful and the hotel restaurant served a delicious buffet breakfast with fresh fruit, cheeses, freshly-baked breads and croissants, etc. Our stay has been delightful!

The hotel room is very well designed and decorated. Bedding and towels are very comfortable. Overall we had a very pleasant stay. Hotel staff were very professional and helpful when needed. The hotel is located next to the city hall where there are many tram lines passing by. Everywhere in the old town is walkable and there are plenty of eateries and shops nearby. This hotel will be our top choice when we visit Basel again.

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).
