Kirsten, 3-night trip

10/10 Excellent

We had a wonderful time at this hotel! The room was exceptional and the breakfast was fantastic! The location is perfect! There were just a couple of smaller problems such as empty shampoo bottle in shower and very small beds. Also, the staff is efficient and helpful but not friendly or welcoming.

William, 2-night trip

10/10 Excellent

It was a nice hotel in a quiet area. It was a block away from the bus from the airport. I felt the breakfast was a bit steep but we got it for the convenience.

Nice old world hotel Excellent location
Mark, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Clean and helpful staff
Tyler, 1-night trip

8/10 Good

The layout of the hotel is rather unconventional (getting to our room involved some stairs, 2 different lifts and a bit of a walk!) but our room was spacious and comfortable, with the slight caveat that our shower was terrible. It severely lacked power and the rainfall shower head didn’t work at all. For two women with long hair this wasn’t ideal and for that reason I am glad we only stayed for 2 nights. We found the location of the hotel very convenient, quiet and safe. We didn’t have breakfast so can’t comment on that. There was free tea, coffee and hot chocolate available between 11am and 9pm.
Imogen, 2-night trip

8/10 Good

Excellent place to stay for the proximity to Old Town. Staff is responsive to inquiries and very friendly. Restaurant recommendations were very helpful. Would definitely stay there again.
julie, 3-night trip

8/10 Good

Great location for walking around Basel.
Sheri, 2-night trip

10/10 Excellent

The staff was fabulous, even leaving a personalized welcome note in our room. Things like that mean so much! Easy walk to the quaint shops in Old Town and if you walk right across the park you'll find a hidden gem - a Botanical Garden established in the 1500s! We loved our stay at Hotel Rochat. Thank you to the staff for making our stay so memorable.
Lauri, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Great location with great hospitality

Lovely clean hotel in the old town of Basel, well located, spacious attractive rooms, delicious breakfast. All the staff was very attentive and very helpful from breakfast to reception. Many thanks to Kristina and her colleagues who go the extra mile for guests' happiness!!
Britta, 3-night trip

8/10 Good

There are stairs to navigate for almost all of the rooms. I had luggage delayed from my flight and when it was delivered to the hotel the hotel staff did not notify me of its arrival. Found out by reading an email from the airline.
