It was a nice property with very helpful staff. Well maintained. The coffee machine in the lobby was fantastic and convenient. The only downside was the heat in our room. There is no Aircon. We opened the window and turned on the fan but it was still to hot.

THE BEST HOTEL
This hotel is possibly THE BEST HOTEL I have ever stayed in. Myself and colleagues were there for a couple of nights and all commented on the comfort and cleanliness of the rooms, the delicious breakfast (especially the pastries) and the nice additional touches (a games room, use of umbrellas, well-stocked complimentary mini bar ...) I will always now use this hotel for our trips to Basel.

The hotel is in an excellent location and the staff could not have been more friendly and helpful. Only minor criticism is there is no AC, but the windows open wide and the room was supplied with a large fan so not a major gripe. Overall a wonderful stay.

Noisy streetfacing rooms
The hotel has rooms facing a noisy street and the garden. Only if you book superior rooms you are entitled to a garden room.
The rooms do not have aircondition, so if you have a street room, and you need windows open, it will be very noisy. The staff is not very kind or helpful in trying to accommodate your wish, already at booking to have a room facing the garden. You are just being told to book a superior room, which is a bit too much for single person business purposes. I would urge the staff to be a bit more personal at check in and in their overall communication.

Great location and lovely view walking across the bridge to the old city centre; very clean; reception staff could not have been nicer or more helpful; comfortable rooms with nice touches like shoe horns and umbrellas that could be borrowed; quiet; a very welcome bath tub; though I only had a single room I had a balcony and it was lovely to sit in the evening sun; excellent value for money. I would defintely stay here again.

A lovely stay in Basel.
My husband and I had a 3 night stay with another couple. The rooms were very pleasant, although they were very warm. The breakfast was delicious, with both hot and cold food and a very good variety of choice. The breakfast staff were delightful and very helpful, as were the reception staff. It is easy to get into town over the river on the tram.

Wonderful location, within easy walking distance to transportation, and to great dining options. Breakfast was lovely, in a bright conservatory overlooking the gardens. Staff were helpful, knowledgeable, and so nice... they helped to make our stay memorable. We would definitely stay at Hotel Wettstein again.

They've thought of everything!
Amazing amenities. This hotel was water, tea, and coffee available 24/7 in the lobby. And power banks to borrow for the day. Plus free beverages, slippers, and loaner umbrella in the room. Very clean and quiet with great staff!

Lovely hotel very close to Christmas markets
This hotel is lovely. Free tea and coffee all day in the lobby is a lovely touch. The family room was spacious and easily accommodated 3 adults (space for a cot too if needed). Free soft drinks in the fridge in the room. It was a 10 minute walk to the high street where there were loads of shops and of course the Christmas markets at this time of year.
