It’s really close to the Basel SBB station which makes it super convenient. But the sofa bed provided in the room was extremely uncomfortable

All good.
Everything was good. Room ok,bathroom ok. Breakfast not with huge variety but tasty and fresh. Location very good near tram station just 5 stops to old city and 2 stops from train station. The only negative was the mattress and especially pillows which were very hard.

Slightly overpriced but good hotel and great staff
Conveniently located. Clean and comfortable overall. A bit on the high side for price, particularly considering breakfast is not included. Staff was super friendly and helpful.

2/10 Poor

Unfortunately 24 hours prior to our stay, we were stranded by law nearby. We notified Expedia and Novotel Basel City Hotel directly to only be told that that we cannot receive a refund, a credit or change the dates of our stay and we were out of luck. We even have documented proof of being stranded. Terrible service and management by all parties while we suffered for days.

Hard pillows
Hotel was clean. Pullout was full size. Mattresses on both beds too hard and pillows too firm . Could not sleep they were so hard. Friends with me had same issue. Overall a great hotel aside from the pillows and mattresses.

Generally Very Good In All Areas
Everything was generally very good, and the service was excellent! The one slightly negative point for me was the lack of choices of the restaurant menu.
