When I booked this property, it was classified as a 4star hotel. This place is less than 3. The pictures in the website with the terraces are very deceiving. There’s only one in the top bar. This Place is extremely loud and I was not able to sleep. The reception area is smaller than my living room and guests’ rooms are right off this area (lack of privacy when entering/ leaving the room). They state on the website that they have laundry facilities. They do NOT. They have a laundry service which charges per piece. They should clarify that in the website. Laundry service is very different than laundry “facility.” We had prepaid over $300 per night for two days; however, the place was so disappointing that we decided to leave after only one night, forgoing the $300 for the second night and leaving town early to find a true 4star hotel. I would never stay in this place again.

Very nice hotel-clean, close to train station (walked it both ways), would stay here again. Only issue, which is part of the hotel design, is that the area of the bathroom is not walled off-instead, there are sliding doors that are covered in a heavy paper, which does not make them soundproof. Too easy to hear what is going on in the bathroom if there are two people in the room. But I would still return to this hotel.

Great small hotel
The hotel was very nice. Accessible to Old Basel, the room was clean and the staff was more than helpful, they were, in a word, delightful. The only drawback (which is not their fault) was that there is no air conditioning, due to regulations for new buildings in the city built after 2021. It was quite hot the first night we were there, so a bit uncomfortable. We were given a fan for the second night which made all the difference. You have to ask for one, they don't automatically make one available. Overall, though, I would give this hotel very high marks.

Great hotel! Location is surrounded by good food options. Close to tram stops. The only negative is the open plan bathroom (Club Suite) which is shared by all the occupants of the suite ( up to 4 people). The staff were very helpful and knowledgeable. Exceeded my expectations!
