Self check-in The location is good, in the center of the old city, next to the river. You can walk around the old town! The disadvantage is that there are many people in the bar at night and it is noisy.

The hotel has no front desk and there was a problem with the check-in system. I had to find many people for help and it took more than an hour to check in. The experience was very bad.

The location is excellent, close to Basel's landmark Middle Bridge. Choose a room with a view of the Rhine River and open the window to watch the passing vehicles and pedestrians on the bridge. There is also a gingerbread store next to the hotel, which is super convenient for buying souvenirs.

Alles vollautomatisiert, altes Hotel , das versucht Geld zu machen wie es scheint. Preislich viel zu teuer insbesondere im Vergleich zu anderen Hotels in Basel. Eingang nur mit 10 Stufen wo man seine Koffer alleine hochschleppen muss. Wenn man auch nur ein wenig gehbehindert ist oder grosse Koffer hat eine Tortur ! Das Zimmer gleicht einer aufgepeppten Gefängniszelle, das Bad ist sicher seit den 70 er Jahren nicht renoviert worden. Das Fenster im „superior Zimmer“ ist undicht sodass der Wind durch durchpfeift und es im ganzen Zimmer zieht. Positiv : das Zimmer ist sehr sauber und die Aussicht auf den Fluss und die Altstadt sehr schön. Macht es aber nicht wett ….

Das Hotel liegt im Herzen von Basel, was eine hervorragende Lage ist. Die Ausstattung ist ebenfalls gut und bietet den Gästen einen angenehmen Aufenthalt. Ich habe ein Zimmer dort gebucht. Die Mitarbeiterin hat gesagt, dass es keine Buchung unter meinem Namen gab, hat aber trotzdem ein Zimmer für mich freigegeben. Ich habe im Raum 513 übernachtet. Das Zimmer liegt neben dem Raucherraum. Ich habe versucht, den Raum zu betreten, aber leider ging es mit meinem Zimmerschlüssel nicht. Wer auch immer in diesem Raum war, war sehr laut. Sie haben auch gegen die Wände und/oder die Gegenstände geschlagen. Ich habe bereits die zuständige Mitarbeiterin darüber informiert, aber es gab leider keine Reaktion.
