Wonderful hotel, conveniently located across from train station, lovely owner. She saw our interest in her art collection and showed us around and gave us back stories. Rooms could use a bit of upgrade but that is not a deterrent for staying there.

Staff was uniformly wonderful. Great family-owned hotel that has retained its old-world ambiance. Amenities included some free wine, beer, juice into the room refrigerator, great breakfast buffet and the special Basel card. That allowed us to ride the trams for free.
