I was here for an event. The hall was good and quite cool given the hot temperatures outside. The food we had during the event was delicious. I can't say anything about the hotel, the rooms or the service because I didn't stay at the hotel.

Quite noisy (main street and tram) in front of the front door, standard rooms (summer blankets or simply sheets would be nice in these temperatures) - but a fantastic breakfast buffet!

Le petit Chef visited. Nice ambience with the cross vault. Climate was underground. Hot and stuffy. Starters very good. Meat in the main course from good to inedible. Staff friendly. Complaints were noted and laughed at. Food in the film does not match what is on the plate. Price-performance ratio is not right. Too bad.

Spent 3 nights in the hotel as there was no air conditioning, it was so hot in the room that it was unbearable to stay for any longer. Apart from the nights when I couldn't sleep, it was so hot. The performance ratio wasn't right either.

I give a very good rating because this hotel is so well located for visiting Basel and the surrounding area and in particular for getting there by tram in a quarter of an hour. The tram stop in front of the hotel. Free car parking. You completely forget about it during your stay, especially as you receive a free transport ticket upon your arrival for the entire stay. And to top it all off there is a great restaurant.

It's pretty much in the country. Only tram line 10. Food should be good.
