Absolutely outstanding hotel fully deserving its 5 start rating. Bar and brasserie are incredible and there seemed to be more staff than guests. Old-school charm rather than modernist...lots of wood paneling rather than glass and metal adds to the character. Breakfast is one of the best Ive had in Switzerland...but at 50CHF it has to be. You need to be a little careful as it is very easy to spend serious amounts of money in the hotel on top of your room cost.....but you get what you pay for. Perhaps for a special occasion rather than a standard business trip. By far the best hotel in Basel.

It was a perfect stay - the room was spacious, the view was beautiful, the personnel was very kind. The food in the restaurant Cheval Blanc (3 Micheline stars) in the hotel was extraordinary, absolutely amazing. The bar and the brasserie were also fantastic.

Lovely property with ornate design everywhere. Very gracious staff at every location waiting to direct or help. Wonderful river lounge for getting a drink and relaxing. The breakfast was one of the very best I have had the pleasure of. The room was very comfortable and quiet although we were on the city side by the trams.

Everything. Location is perfect. Room overlooking the Rhine was fabulous (and entertaining as the gondola races were happening). This hotel has every convenience technology could provide, but it is old Europe elegance and service.
