Great location and accommodations!

The location was excellent relative to train center, shopping, restaurants and street trams. The accommodations were clean, efficient and helpful including a very good restaurant. The service was friendly, English accommodating and helpful- the best part. The only quibble was that we did not have air conditioning and our visit was during an unusually hot and humid period. I would recomend this as a great place to stay and will stay their on my next trip.

Terrible customer service experience

Stayed at hotel March 2017. Had emailed on Feb to confirm stay and get suggestions on getting there from airport. Good guidance on transport, no mention of problem with reservation, so assumed all was ok. Upon arrival , was advised reservation was for April. Good need/bad news. We have a room, but it's going to cost you a lot because there's a convention in town. After a small discount, paid 3 to 4 times what their normal rate is. Not a good way to start a vacation!

excellent hotel

Pros: good value location friendly, helpful staff
Cons: should have told us the minibar was included in the price.
Nice place, right in the old city center for sightseeing. Within 2 blocks of public transportation. Excellent restaurant. Bring lots of cash to Switzerland, it is expensive

Nice, convenient, hotel

Pros: Excellent location, good staff.
Cons: Restaurant a bit pricey.
Location: Right downtown, in the middle of everything.
Only there one night, but it was comfortable. Nothing spectacular, but everything needed in a downtown hotel.

Excellent and located in old town area

Located in a central location in the old town, the Basel Hotel is walkable to the Rhine, cathedral and museums. The rooms are ample sized with a desk, chair and comfy chair. Nicely appointed rooms and modern bath. The reception was helpful recommending locals restaurant and directing us to the museums. The hotel offers free wifi and a tram transportation to get around as well. A good value for the money in Basel.
