Couples first time in Basel
The hotel is in a very good location, very quiet surroundings. The service from the reception to the breakfast service is fantastic. The bed was a little uncomfortable and they need to renew the carpets in the hotel as well. The bathroom and room are super spacious. Fantastic breakfast. We went to the Christmas markets, and it was very convenient to walk.

We stayed four nights at this hotel, they stored our luggage for one additional night.
First night we had a room that was up some stairs down a hallway down some-stairs up an elevator. The room was decent but the bathtub was extremely high, hard to get in and out of.
The hotel provided free coffee, tea and hit chocolate between 11 am and 9 pm, we would have liked a beverage in the morning, but did not want to have to pay the price for the breakfast, they could set out a coffee pot before 11 in another location in the lobby area if the concern is people were going to help themselves to the breakfast.
The three nights we stayed we had a beautiful room wiith a seating area included. It was lovely. The staff was very helpful with directions and suggestions of reataurants.

The property is in an excellent location for access to the old town area. Facility was clean and staff very attentive.
The shower head in our room did not function properly.

We arrived early and appreciated storing our many pieces of luggage until our rooms were prepared. The location was great for both walking and going to a trolly stop. Would stay again.
