Best boutique hotel in Basel
Pros:

This is a wonderful hotel situated across the street from one of the most beautiful medieval city gates in Europe, the Spalentor gate, and walking distance from old town and market square. Also across from the beautiful university botanical gardens.
Busses are free for hotel guests and bus 30 right outside the hotel is 5 minutes from the central rail station and runs every few minutes. Hotel breakfast is great and each room has an espresso coffee maker. Great room, bed and bathroom.

Comodo in tutti i sensi
Pros:

Posizione ottima, ad un chilometro a piedi dal centro raggiungibile con un gradevole percorso. Parcheggio ottimo in una via attigua. Struttura pulita, sobriamente arredata e con ogni conforto. Personale gentilissimo. Colazione nella norma.

Cons:

La stanza da bagno è davvero comoda, ma il lavandino è così piccolo. Facile bagnare e bagnarsi.
