Very convenient to train station. Our stay included a Basel Transit Pass which made it very easy to connect by tram to the Viking dock. If you are staying overnight and arrive or depart by train its a great location.

Great staff and nice hotel. Close to train station and walking distance to many attractions. Parking was a little difficult to find (within the train station underground structure) but was convenient. Would happily stay again

Location was great! It was close to everything we needed and wanted to see. The staff were welcoming when we arrived, helpful storing our luggage and calling a taxi when we were ready to leave. The food was good and the breakfast buffet was excellent.

The hotel was fantastic. It was situated in the perfect position for us, as it was very close to the train station and we spent a lot of time visiting other cities via the trains. The staff were very attentive and friendly and very helpful whenever we had any questions. They gave us a Basel card on arrival to grant us free inner-city transport and 50% discount on museums, which was a great help. The room was always kept very clean and we were very warm and comfortable there. Cannot fault our stay here, it was perfect.
