Only ate here. Had a great meal. Service was quick despite it being busy. It was teeming it down with rain but we ate under cover outside with a view if the river. Food was lovely and nice beer too. Basel is expensive so eating out is not cheap, so be prepared to pay upwards of about £26 for a burger... This is well worth a visit to eat. Toilets immaculate too!

Brilliant location by the river with food options onsite, and nearby transport options. Lots of character a little noisy at night due to being above bars on riverside. Must be one of the best places to stay in Basel.

When we arrived the area was not well lit. One night we were locked out and had to go into a bar and ask for help getting in. They were helpful to get us into our room.

Great location! The location of the East-West Riverside is amazing. Very convenient to many of Basel's tourist areas and has beautiful views of the river. It's clean, and well-kept with modern furnishings and decor. There was a small Christmas market (just food and beverages) right outside the front door of the hotel that we really enjoyed (early December). Breakfast was good but minimal, like an American continental breakfast. Only 2 complaints: flat pillows and the room was always too hot. We kept a window cracked open much of the time. But the pillows were an issue. They only give you one per person but it was so flat it's like not having one at all. I would highly recommend, just bring your own pillows.

Great Location Staff and Breakfast Great Location, Great service and Breakfast. Hotel is old but very clean. It was comfortable but was a bit noisy due to all the trams running by. We did sleep pretty well anyway :-) Very walkable to old town :-)

Exceptional place! When we checked in to our rooms, we were not happy that we were put in an inside room with a view of the elevator, we had booked canal view. We were immediately moved to the rooms we booked and had a wonderful stay!
