Modern oasis in the heart of Basel with a fun rooftop restaurant
Pros:

I really didn't know what to expect and was pleasantly surprised! The room was quite modern and sleek - very clean and well appointed. The rooftop restaurant was really fun and the staff was professional and made us feel really welcome and well cared for. Great location to public transportation, despite being in a walking zone, really just a few steps from taxis and trams and made for a quieter, non-traffic area which was really nice.

Cons:

The flat fee for breakfast is always something I try to avoid as I'm a light eater in the morning! But it was very good - just not a good value for me personally. The restaurant is also a separate business, so it was a little confusing upon check-out to have two bills to settle. Again, not an issue at all, but just good to be aware of. Overall a really perfect place to explore Basel!

Séjour confortable dans une chambre design
Pros:

L’emplacement, la taille des chambres et la décoration

Cons:

Il y a un chantier juste en face. Ce n’est pas la faute de l’hôtel mais le bruit peut être vite très dérangeant. C’est mieux de prévenir au moment de la réservation ou d’éviter d’attribuer la chambre juste en face du chantier.

Un hotel con onda y mucho estilo
Pros:

Me encantó el trato de las chicas de la recepción. El hotel es hermoso. La habitación también. Un diseño súper moderno. La cama súper cómoda. Nos recibieron invitándonos a tomar algo en el rooftop. Eso nos encantó. Fue hermosa la estadía en el hotel. Lo recomiendo y volvería a ir. La ubicación también es buenísima.

Pros:

The hotel is ideally located 10 minutes on foot from the central train station and within a short walk to town centre, sights and multiple tram stops.

My room was beautifully appointed, huge and spotless. I booked a medium room and it was much larger than expected with a super comfortable bed! The bathroom products were luxurious and minibar was entirely free.

The staff were very friendly and helpful. Even the lady who ran the breakfast area was so lovely. The breakfast was super delicious, healthy and had a wide selection of beautiful local produce. It was a great way to start the day on the rooftop especially with the morning sun streaming in!

Cons:

The street the hotel is on is quite lively and the soundproofing isn’t great. There is also currently construction nearby and I was woken up at 7.30am by heavy drilling, but I suppose this is (hopefully) temporary.

Aktuell nur empfehlenswert mit expliziter Frage, auf welcher Seite das gebuchte Zimmer liegt!
Pros:

Das Hotel ist sehr schön, geschmackvoll und modern eingerichtet. Die Zimmer sind sehr sauber, großzügig mit komfortablen Betten. Die Roof Top Bar ist ein echtes Highlight. Frühstück hatten wir nicht im Hotel. Es gibt eine kostenlose Minibar und einen Willkommens-Drink , was die positive und freundliche Atmosphäre unterstreicht. Das Personal war hilfsbereit und freundlich.

Cons:

Das Hotel liegt in einer belebten Gegend und Straße. Das an sich fanden wir gut und hatten uns bewusst für eine zentrale Lage entschieden. Auch der Blick auf die Straße und direkt andere Hausfassaden wäre kein Malus gewesen, ebenso wenig wie normale Geräuschkulissen von Menschen und einer Straße. Allerdings befindet sich auf der Rückseite des Hauses eine Baustelle, auf die man direkt und wenige Meter (ca 5Meter) entfernt schaut. Wir hatten jeden Morgen ab 7:30 Baulärm mit Kreissägen und Gehämmer. Unvorstellbar das Fenster auch nur 5 Minuten zu öffnen oder etwas Licht in das Zimmer zu lassen (da direkter Blick in die Baustelle). Wir haben keine übertriebenen Ansprüche und Baustellen sind unvermeidbar, aber diese Beeinträchtigung hätte man im Vorfeld kommunizieren müssen. Als Gast zahlt man in Hotels dieses Niveaus auch für die Möglichkeit, sich zu erholen. Auch auf Nachfrage gab es zu unserem Zimmer keine Alternative.
