Our Easter stay at this hotel was wonderful! The staff was helpful and friendly, and every detail in the room was well thought out. We were pleased to see a wide range of TV stations, including ones from the UK. The hotel's location was perfect for exploring the city, and we thoroughly enjoyed the good garden where we could relax after a day of sightseeing. The complimentary tea, drinks, and snacks were an added bonus, and we appreciated the effort the hotel made to support local charities.

The hotel is conveniently located in a beautiful garden setting, close to a major tram station. It is just a short walk to the town center of Basel and near many restaurants. The staff were friendly and welcoming, providing excellent service. The rooms were clean and comfortable, with a nice shower and all necessary amenities. The breakfast options were great, with a variety of healthy and delicious food. The hotel also had a lounge area where guests could enjoy complimentary drinks and relax.
There was a slight inconvenience with the hotel's location. It required walking up a number of steps up a hill, which might be challenging for elderly or impaired individuals.
