The room was excellent and the breakfast was wonderful. For someone travelling by train, the location is amazing as the main railway station is two-minutes walk away. Outside the front door are around ten tram stops, so getting to places like the Fondation Beyeler is easy (Tram 2 then tram 6 in case you're interested).

The central place to stay in Basel. Right next to the central train station. Staff is very helpful and professional. It was not a problem at all to switch to a room with separate beds on short notice. Only stayed one night with an early departure by S-Bahn.
