We were invited to a family gathering in Basel to celebrate a 50th wedding anniversary which was being held in the Merian hotel . We stayed in the hotel with many other guests, and had a thoroughly enjoyable time. Conveniently located on the river close to all the main central areas, the Merian is a good family hotel, with good... more

I mind to give a bad grade because the staff has been very kind and helpful. In addition to that, the hotel is central and very clean. But the good news really end here. My room was tiny and very very sad. Thin walls don't help with noise. Have a look at the picture and judge the bathroom by yourself.... more

We stayed in Basel for one night just passing through and are glad we did... it's a very scenic town with great atmosphere. The view from the hotel balcony was excellent, very relaxing watching the river flow by. I would definately recommend a river side room as rooms on the other side would look over the alley. The hotel staff... more

I stayed here over the week-end at a terrific rate of 140.00 CHF (single) enjoying a view towards the river Rhine. I reconfirmed my booking by telephone and had all my questions answered in a friendly, quick and competent manner. On arrival the check-in procedure left ambivalent feelings, staff could have stepped out in a more welcoming manner. And the... more

We stayed just 1 night, because we come from Basel an know the town. But it was the first time in this old noble hotel on the Klein Basel side. Nice view, but noisy but that is consequenco from the central location. We got the smallest room which I have ever seen. The bed was 1.4 m and if you... more

Handsome building at a nice location with all rooms having a small balcony overlooking the Rhine. The room was a reasonable size, clean and comfortable. The banks of the Rhine seem to be where Basel's teenagers gather after dark to drink, talk and smoke a little dope - so I had to sleep with the window closed to keep out... more
