Art House Basel - Member of Design Hotels

Great hotel, very friendly staff, great breakfast, clean room.

The hotel is well located for those arriving by car, Parkhaus Steinen garage is just a few meters away. You will be in the city center, which includes shopping malls and restaurants. If you wish to avoid noise of the street until the late night, that location may not be the best for you. Breakfasts were excellent, offering a wide variety of foods ranging from healthy ones, such as Swiss homemade yoghurts, muesli and good cow milk, to selection of delicate cheeses (goat, cow and sheep), and also a great selection of fresh breads, etc. My wife loved scrambled eggs, she said they were exceptionally well made. Apple baskets filled with fruits were found on every floor, so there's hardly something you will be missing for your healthy diet. You will receive the Basel Card which will enable to roam freely over the city, using all bus and tram lines in Basel for free. When we stayed in the hotel, a major reconstruction was under way of another building just across the street from our hotel, and the noise often started at 7 am. However, insulation of the windows was quite sufficient to block most of the noise from the busy street during late nights. On the other hand, the towels were being replaced every day, minibar was for free, and anything you needed could be asked for using WhatsApp. So, I give thumbs up for our overall lovely experience!

I recently spend 3 nights in a junior suite with a terrace at the Art House Hotel in Basel, and I'm recommending it. The location is great, situated in the heart of Basel but in a calm area. Moreover, it's just 2 minute walk from a parking, which was very convenient. The room was very nice, modern and very comfortable for 2 people. We truly enjoyed our stay there. The terrace was lovely, providing a nice space to relax, even though we did have a view obstruction due to a building renovation (not the fault of the hotel). We also enjoyed the rooftop bar, with a nice terrace and very good wine. If you're looking for a well-placed, comfortable hotel in Basel, I highly recommend it. It provided everything we needed for a very nice stay.
