Die Lage in Kleinbasel ist ideal. Die Altstadt ist gut zu Fuss erreichbar. Das Quartier ist sehr belebt. Schade, dass es keine Aircondition im Zimmer hat. So mussten wir - zwecks Abkühlung - das Fenster nachts offen lassen und dadurch war es ziemlich lärmig im Zimmer > Nachtschwärmerinnen und -schwärmer die laut lachten und redeten.

Comfortable room with convenient location

Overall, we had a nice experience at Balade Hotel. The room was nice, big and clean, and it was easy to reach the city center by foot. The only issue we had was with our GPS, we couldn't reach the location because there were some closed streets and one-way streets. The employee that helped us at the phone was in Zurich, so she couldn't really help us. Moreover, it took a while to create the key-card and it cost 10 minutes of international call 😭 when we solved these issues, our stay was definitely nice.

Nein danke, org. Verbesserung tut not!

Hilfe bei Ankunft mangelhaft und unfreudlich. Möchte ich nicht zweimal erleben! Ohne die freundliche Hilfe eines Herrn aus dem Restaurant (der mit dem Hotelzimmern nicht zu tun hattr) war ich kurz davor, abzureisen und eine neue Unterkunft zu suchen.
