We stayed here overnight since one of the stages of the Westweg reaches up to Kandern. Spacious and comfortable room and the owner is really kind! We didn't have breakfast to make it faster and she cared about us!

There aren’t many options to stay in Kandern, a tiny town near where Germany, France, and Switzerland meet. Visiting the boarding school I graduated from 21 years ago, my wife, seven-year-old daughter and I booked two nights in this quaint gasthouse in town. Here’s our experience.1) Check-In: Booking online, you don’t pay until you’re physically at the gasthouse. Coming in late on a Friday, the owner left our room keys in an envelope taped to the window near the entrance. The keys are bulky, but do fit in a pocket.2) Rooms: To fit three of us, we booked the apartment, which was two rooms and a bathroom. There’s plenty of closet space in each room, bedding, towels, and even water.A few things to note. There isn’t AC, but there’s a small fan in each room. It didn’t cool the room to my liking, but it wasn’t horrible.The restroom uses rain water to help save the planet. We’re all for that, but the water in the toilet did smell like sulfur our entire stay. The restroom doesn’t have ventilation.3) Amenities: The rooms come with a hair dryer, a heated rack to dry clothes, etc.There’s a small breakfast for six Euros per person that comes with bread, jam, eggs, meats, cheese, yogurt, cereal, juice, and coffee.There’s parking nearby.We were given free bus tickets into Basel.4) Service: It’s a family run business and the family lives on site so it’s easy to connect if you need anything.5) Location: It’s in town around the corner from a popular doner kebab shop and within walking distance to the pool.

Unfortunately the restaurant was closed - not bad!However, the price of €118 for a double room + €12 for breakfast is grossly overpriced. With the charm of the 70s, you should also pay these prices and adhere to hygienic standards. On Westweg the most overpriced room with PVC floors, bugs in the room, hanging skirting boards and minimal breakfast.

Great restaurant and very usable guesthouse rooms. I actually chose the inn because of the funny name... and that was the right thing to do.But the food is really great, you can tell that the chef doesn't cook according to a recipe but according to his feeling... and his feeling for cooking is really great!Centrally located in the old town, nice terrace where you can dine well, everything with a friendly and committed team, I would like to come back!
