Everything was great about this hotel. Location, staff and room. The hotel is a historical landmark in the city and I highly recommend. We only stayed one night to catch our river cruise the next day, however we wished we had stayed a couple more. Next time!!

Loved the Basel Krafft Hotel!! Lovely accommodations- both room and common areas, great breakfast and super- friendly staff. Perfect location for sightseeing or just relaxing!! Will definitely stay again if ever fortunate enough to be back in Basel!!!

We arrived late morning from a transatlantic flight expecting our room would not be ready, however we were able to check in immediately. The room was spacious and pristine. The view of the river was spectacular. The coffee/tea/water station in the foyer outside our room was very nice to have. We had lunch at the hotel restaurant one afternoon, food was delicious and the service was wonderful. The only drawback was the hotel was not air conditioned and the two days we were there were quite warm. There was a large fan already in the room and we were offered an additional fan if we wanted. However, by the time the sun set the room was comfortable enough for a good nights sleep. I would highly recommend this hotel.
