    minor inconvenience

    The breakfast was 🍽️ incredible, especially those croissants! Plus, the spacious room added to a really enjoyable stay. Just a bummer about the shower leaking onto the floor.

    delicious breakfast
    noisy courtyard
    limited seating

    My stay at Boutique & Design Hotel Volkshaus Basel was delightful! The stylish room exuded charm, and the generous complimentary treats like fresh apples and drinks made me feel extra special. Plus, the breakfast was a highlight with an array of delicious local selections.

    Noisy courtyard at times.

    thoughtful service
    awkward shower design

    Breakfast surprise for a birthday!

    Waking up to the delightful aroma of fresh pastries was a treat. The team surprised us with a birthday cake at breakfast, showing their attention to detail and care!

    While the room was comfortable, I found the shower design a bit awkward, as water leaked onto the floor. A slight maintenance touch-up would make it perfect.

    nighttime noise

    10/10

    Ope, the complimentary drinks station on each floor was a lifesaver, keepin' us refreshed all day! The breakfast was simply delightful, with scrumptious croissants that put any Parisian bakery to shame. Loved the vibe of the lobby, it felt like a cozy art gallery. Oh, and that hairdryer? Best I've ever used! We felt pampered!

    breakfast issue

    The spacious Cozy Room featured an incredibly comfortable bed and lovely toiletries. Although the service was generally helpful, it was sometimes a bit slow during breakfast. The location is perfect, right by a tram stop, making it easy to explore the city.

    Our Junior Suite was immaculately clean, with high-quality furnishings and a stunning view of the courtyard. The attentive staff made my husband's birthday special with a beautiful cake, adding a personal touch to our experience.

    friendly staff

    Couple’s stylish getaway

    The staff were friendly and helpful! They went out of their way to, giving me a complimentary transportation pass for the entire city. The coffee machines and water stations on each floor really helped keep me refreshed.

    It wasn't exactly budget-friendly, but for what you get, it's still reasonable.

    room convenience

    In my wife’s opinion, a fridge in the room would have been great for keeping snacks and drinks for the little ones.

    stylish room
    delicious breakfast
    leaky shower
    slow service
    minor maintenance

    The room design stood out for its modern aesthetic, while the complimentary drinks station on each floor encouraged guests to help themselves to refreshments at their leisure. Breakfast was a highlight, featuring a wide array of delicious options, making it easy to start the day on a high note. However, the shower could use some minor adjustments, as water tends to leak onto the floor. The staff's attentiveness sometimes faltered during busy breakfast hours, causing a slight delay before getting served.

    excellent wifi
    complimentary water
    exceptional service
    surrounding noise

    Boutique & Design Hotel Volkshaus is a wonderful place to stay, featuring excellent wifi and the convenience of 24-hour access to Nespresso machines on each floor. I appreciated the complimentary sparkling water at the coffee stations. The rooms are smartly laid out, although size may vary. The front desk staff provided exceptional service, and I appreciated the daily delivery of a large bucket of ice.

    Some noise from the surrounding area did disrupt sleep at times.
