Great location and an easy tram ride from the station. We stayed before a Viking River Cruise. Viking has a desk on the lobby. The rooms were great. They were quiet, nicely appointed and comfortable. The staff could have not been more helpful.

Room disappointing for price.

Reception area and restaurant great. Service from staff good though check out queue long. Breakfast great. Cleanliness great. For the price, the room was a bit disappointing. Small and nothing special. Pillows flat as pancakes. Did ask for an extra one which came but not much better. Toiletries limited to bare essentials. No signal on UK TV channels.

Excellent but a few things to fix

It was overall of excellent standards however beds not exactly comfortable and pillows were extremely soft (in a bad way) and beds did not seem to be straight as we got the sensation that the head part was collapsing making you feel like you are sleeping upside down. Also, extremely gimmicky to use lifts due to different cards and designated lifts for different areas. Having said that, staff was incredibly polite and professional, they accommodated a very special request to fantastic standards and promptly, hotel was clean as you’d expect and overall a very high standard service (including catering)

Cumbersome WiFi process

Returned to the hotel almost 10 yrs after it was the Ramada - not much had changed but getting on the WiFi was cumbersome so just used my hotspot! Not ideal for business travellers and for this reason, I’ll stay elsewhere in Basel next time

Staff excellent

2 nights stay to explore Basel, excellent reception staff, limited underground hotel parking but multi storey car park opposite with reduced rates via hotel. Tram system on doorstep with the impressive messe platz to see. Rooms a little small and a bit too hot but very nice bathrooms. Excellent breakfast buffet and very helpful staff. Try the Thai place Boo around the corner for dinner, it’s excellent.
