"It’s something of a surprise to see the Swiss architects Herzog & de Meuron named in a boutique-hotel project. Outside of Switzerland, the firm is better known for large-scale projects like stadiums and museums. But Basel’s Volkshaus, while it’s not a football stadium, has been central to this city’s public life for centuries, and to adapt it for use as a hotel was no small task. Once a castle, later a brewery, still later a concert hall and office complex, it’s a site with a history that demands preservation." - Le Guide MICHELIN

"Less formal, the Herzog & de Meuron–designed brasserie inside Volkshaus—Basel’s ca.-1925 concert hall—complements its menu of French and Swiss comfort foods with an impressive collection of contemporary art, including all of the original works from the book “Artists’ Recipes” (by Marina Abramović, Roger Ballen, and Anish Kapoor, to name a few)."
"Once a castle, later a brewery, still later a concert hall and office complex, Volkshaus has been central to Basel’s public life for centuries, and the hotel that stands here today is both thorough update and sensitive restoration." - Le Guide MICHELIN
