The location is so easy to navigate the city by foot or tram. We spent two nights in Basel before our cruise at the Hotel D. There isn’t a bar in the lobby but the lobby area has a large sitting area and we brought food and drink and planned our activities. The bed was quite comfortable and there was a large bathroom.

Unfortunately totally inaccommodating. We were told straight away after booking that we would like to cancel it because it wasn't Basel. Yes, it was clear what you had booked, but it's a matter of principle. I would have immediately taken a voucher from the hotel for a future visit to Basel, 50 or maybe even 25% would have been okay. So it's just super customer unfriendly.Good luck, just without us...

Excellent hotel. The room was well appointed and spacious. The bed was comfortable although the duvet was too hot even with the window open and it was wasn’t that hot outside. …

The hotel is in an excellent position, very close to the beautiful river Rhine and approximately 5 mins to the old town. Lots of restaurants close by. …

Our executive room was awesome! Nice view, very spacious and well appointed. The location is perfect. Walking distance to everything we wanted to see in Basel. Loved the breakfast too! Our friends were in a smaller room without a view and they were disappointed.
