Merian Park

My husband and I absolutely loved our stay at Hotel Merian! We had a beautiful room on the fourth floor overlooking the Rhine, and the views were simply spectacular. One of our favorite memories was standing outside on our balcony, taking in the gorgeous river and city views, especially with the Ferris wheel from the Autumn Festival (Herbstmesse) lighting up the skyline. It was such a magical way to experience Basel! The location couldn't have been better. We were within easy walking distance of countless restaurants, shops, and several of the Autumn Festival locations, making it the perfect home base for exploring the city. The staff were incredibly friendly, welcoming, and helpful. Since Basel was new to us, we especially appreciated their wonderful recommendations and guidance, which made navigating the city and discovering local gems so easy. The breakfast was also lovely, with a great variety of delicious options to start each morning. We had such a wonderful experience and couldn't have asked for a better place to stay during our visit to Basel. We would absolutely stay here again and highly recommend Hotel Merian to anyone visiting this beautiful city!

Staff was rude. Parking was hard, but the hotel and room in general was clean.
