royal Hotel

Very friendly staff. Nice rooms. Great location. Would definitely recommend it to anyone. We had a room for three and there was plenty of room for everyone. Great breakfast. Close to all forms of transportation. Staff was very helpful with using public transportation.

We only spent one night in Basel but thoroughly enjoyed it. This hotel helped make for a great stay. Traveling with five has had us mostly staying in Airbnb’s and a hotel is never as spacious. But we fit adequately in one of their rooms. The staff spoke perfect English and were incredibly helpful and kind. It was an easy 10-15 min walk to the Rhine for a swim on a hot afternoon and right across from one of the train stations - which also just happened to be near where we rented a car for the next leg of our journey. Very convenient!

The Hotel is no frills and if you arrive after 4PM you have to checkin via an electronic kiosk by the door. You fill up a bunch of screens and in the end it gives you a keycard to enter the hotel. You also have to use it in the elevator as the hotel is only on the 4th floor and all other floors have locks. The room was fairly large and well equipped. I particularly loved the alligator shaped soaps for the kids and the fully stocked minibar which was entirely free. There were also chocolates and cookies on the pillows. Nice wi-if too. Breakfast is served in a tiny room downstairs and even though there was a tiny amount of each of the things to eat, it was replaced often. The only person working in the hotel in the morning is the receptionist and the one tending breakfast. She was nice and responsive to our needs. A very good option for those needing to take the train from Basel Bad in the morning. A bit far from the city’s interesting bits though.

Very nice hotel, ideally located next to the German train station. All the rooms are on the 4th floor: nice view guaranteed. The breakfast buffet is ok. The lady at desk was most forthcoming. Definitely would stay again if in Basel

This hotel is located at Center. Bahnhof is very near and opposite to hotel. Rooms are very clean & tidy. Air conditioning is available. Wi-Fi is available. After 17:00 you have to self check in but this will be communicated via phone by the staff. Friendly & supportive staff. Parking is not there you have to park opposite paid parking garage which is public. Hotel will give discount for the parking. Breakfast is ok.

I had an excellent stay at Royal Hotel in October 2020. The check in seemed a bit unusual at first, but was very straightforward when I arrived on site. The staff is very friendly and helpful, and gave some very good local suggestions. My room was very nice and I was even given an upgrade. The staff generously accommodated my additional requests. The water and coffee refills were great! I recommend it, and will stay here again.

I arrived at the hotel and met a wonderful member of staff, Carmen. She checked us in quickly and showed us where to go for dinner. There was also a free ticket for using the public transport in Basil which took us straight from the train station to the centre of town. Thank you Carmen!

The hotel was nice, breakfast was as expected, maybe a bit overpriced and when I asked for some more croissants the answer was no. I booked the comfort room, the pictures look lovely and we were very much looking forward to it, but our room was not like the pictures at all, very much the opposite! So we were rather disappointed with that, most of the staff were very friendly and helpful. It’s a very clean place which is nice, fairly quiet aswell you get the odd loud tram out the front but there’s no noise from cars. I had requested 2 champagne glasses to be left in the room and when I got there they were there! Which was very lovely and each day 2 clean glasses! Over all it was a very nice stay just a bit of a shame we didn’t have the right room, and with it all being self check in there wasn’t anyone around at that time.
