This hotel is within walking distance of so many cafés, attractions, and transit, and it’s easy to get to the hotel from Basel SBB. I really loved sitting out in the garden with the welcome drink that they give you when you arrive! And the staff were friendly and helpful, and also spoke multiple languages. The room was clean, comfortable, and had everything you need (except a mini fridge). There’s a small bar onsite, and they serve an extensive breakfast. They have tea and coffee available all the time.
