Efficient hotel room in a charming city

We checked in at the front desk and took an elevator to our room. We enjoyed seeing Basal the next day using free public transportation. It is a very nice town. We chose not to have breakfast, but I didn’t see where you could grab a cup of coffee. There was no coffee or tea in our room.

We picked this hotel based on location and the many mentions of the helpful staff. The staff is amazing and Danielle at the front desk helped us arrange our lodging in Lucerne, provided detailed info about the train options to Colmar, Lucerne, and then Paris. The location proved as a great “home base” for our day trips. The 16 tram is right outside the front door, the “local” side of the train station is walking distance. For our trip to Paris we took a different tram to the front side of the train station where trains to Paris left from. You could walk through the back/local side but we had large luggage. The rooms were clean and bright, left luggage was easy to arrange, there are lots of dining options nearby, the TV had English options, there is a hairdryer supplied, and the beds were comfortable. The hotel is fine but it is the knowledgeable, kind staff that makes this hotel shine! We look forward to returning!

Ideally situated (for us at least) by the main station but still within walking distance to the main town. Staff were very friendly (and very patient in putting up with my attempt to try German!). First time in an Ibis and would definitely try one again based on our experience in Basel. No kettle in the room which was a shame but seemed to be the standard in Switzerland based on our other hotel stays!

Very nice and clean place. Unfortunately, the pillows were very uncomfortable for me and the hotel didn’t have other types. Also, the breakfast could have a bit more variety to chose from.

The staff was eager to help with directions to things we wanted to get to. Location was very close to trams to get to anywhere. The train station and bus station were very close. Don't plan on doing your laundry in this city. There is only one laundromat and we couldn't get it to work, nor was there anyone to ask. This is a great city to visit. The river and the things around it were amazing. We would definitely stay at this hotel again.
