Good choice!

Excellent hotel. Check in was unexpectedly helpful and friendly. Room was large and comfortable and clean. Breakfast is expensive but there are no options close to the hotel. Hotel is next to the #50 bus stop which goes directly to the airport and to the train station in Basel. Have fun!

Excellent stay, close to Basel Airport

Many evening flights from Basel were cancelled, so I was lucky to find a room here, only 3 stops by bus from the airport. Very helpful, friendly staff. They printed out a document for me that I needed urgently for a meeting the next day. They also booked me a taxi to get to the airport early in the morning at 5am. There is a shuttle bus, but it only begins at 6am. There is "express" continental breakfast served from 4.30am, and they give you a takeaway bag if you need to leave promptly, as I did. Overall, a brilliant experience, helping minimise the stress of being stranded overnight abroad.

This was a nice hotel. The bed was comfortable and everything was clean. The restaurant, Hangar 9 was very good. You get a 10 CFR discount in your key card packet. The burgers were delicious and the fries were great. The casino is very nice and an added bonus gor your stay. The staff were all very accommodating and friendly.

I reserved this hotel because of its nearness to the Basel Airport. It is in more of an industrial area. However the bus transportation is very close. We were given a card which let us use all public transportation for free. Very clean hotel with a restaurant.
