In a nutshell - Pros: Heritage charm, central location close to Bahnhof Basel SBB train station, public transport, food outlets & cafes. Walking distance to historic Basel centre. Staff very helpful. Buffet breakfast - good quality & variety.
Cons: Worn out, floppy dated bed, furnishings, tight fit toilet/shower. Steps up to entrance.
Vintage interior is charming but everything in the economy single room needs upgrade. Not 4 star at all. Quiet enough but has a connecting locked door to next room - made me uneasy. Secure coded safe is old, manual type & high up on shelf. Basic amenities but thankfully, a good selection of tea & coffee pods. Have to use coffee pod machine to boil water for tea.
I am grateful for early check in upon arrival at 10.00 am on 20 Dec 2025 recently. Staff also had to assist with turning up heating - old hydronic type behind curtains. Worn dial knob fell off!! As with most hotels, luggage can be stored for few hours if need be - token will be given.
Great place for short stay but room facilities are not great. Check online for better room & facilities when booking.
