I enjoyed the size of our room. We enjoyed having the privacy of the sauna area one night. The idea of having a coffee station was a good idea with fresh fruit available . At our check in Mika was very helpful pointing out areas in Basel to visit. The hotel is close to the tram service which is also complimentary . We used it a couple of times to explore. Hotel is close to Starbucks and restaurants that are very walkable. I felt I made a very good choice with this hotel.

Airport Basel is slightly outside downtown but there is transportation and buses to get to downtown. Breakfast was good with options and Dominick from the reception was of great help. He guided us well on options.
