What our guests says about facilities

The hotel offers amenities for your comfortable stay and unforgettable experiences

Spacious Comfort

The room was incredibly spacious, providing ample floor space for our family to move around freely with our luggage. It made our stay exceptionally comfortable, especially with a toddler in tow.

Delicious Breakfast

The breakfast selection was surprisingly good for a small hotel, with fresh pastries and great coffee that really kick-started our day. I especially appreciated the option for some takeaway snacks for later.

Convenient Transport

The free Basel card provided was a fantastic perk, allowing us to explore the city without worrying about transport costs. We took full advantage of it during our stay.

Cozy Atmosphere

The unique alligator-shaped soaps added a special touch to the room, making it feel more personal and welcoming. It really enhanced our entire experience.
