Boutique & Design Hotel Volkshaus Basel
Probably one of the nicest hotel experiences I have had. They give you a voucher for a free drink at the bar as a gift for staying with them which I think is nice. Staff is excellent and so kind. Lady in the front desk told us things to do around Basel and was overall very helpful. Room was fantastic ...
