Feels like a small independent hotel but that’s a good thing. Rooms and beds are comfortable. It can be a bit noisy if you need the windows open which you might as there’s no AC. Staff are all lovely and the food is great

Amazing hotel in a great location. The river is on one side with nice views of the city, then you have the Christmas market on the other side during December. Super convenient location and you can get to anywhere in Basel taking the tram.
