“Overnighter in Basel.”
+Had a much larger room for my second stay - overnighter before flight next morning. Reception good. Did not try breakfast but it was good the week before. Well located to see Basel and just 75 yards from rail station and airport bus.

+A good hotel, well located near the rail station. Checking in was fuss-free on arrival for my 2 night stay. Returning for 1 night before returning to the UK the following morning. Room was ok although it did have several areas of low ceilings - not helpful when you are 6’ 2”. Bathroom was functionally good. Very large shower with an overhead and usual water outlet. Water was hot and came with very good pressure (room was on the 3rd floor). Breakfast was v good with selection of all you really need. Dining room located on the 8th with good views.

+I was pretty disappointed in my room Not like the photos and a bit jaded - needs a bit of a freshen up/painting etc. Other rooms looked much nicer but based on mine, I wouldn’t recommend. Location is ok but a bit of a walk to anything ‘nice’, convenient for bus to airport/train connections.

+The City Inn offers a real bargain in Basel, so long as you like an architectural puzzle. A single building has been subdivided into one expensive hotel and one mid-price hotel, and all the rooms and passageways in between the two that didn't quite make sense have been called the City Inn. You check in at the posh hotel and have a fine breakfast in a panoramic 8th floor room in the mid-price hotel, and somewhere in between you wander various corridors and bits of staircase looking for your room. It will be odd when you find it, but comfortable, and very reasonably priced.

“Overall is a good hotel with scope of improvement”
+Overall, it's a good hotel, conveniently located right in front of Basel SBB. The front desk staff were very helpful, and the breakfast was good. If you're traveling with heavy luggage, it's recommended to ask for a room with elevator access. However, there's room for improvement regarding room cleanliness (photos enclosed).

+Some rooms only have partial lift access, so you may need to manually carry your luggage up a flight of stairs or so - but it’s a great, economical base in Basel that’s totally worth the effort. The room is pop-modern, simple but clean and highly functional layout, with a comfortable pillow and duvet and thoughtful amenities that make you feel well looked after without excess. The staff are very professional and friendly, assisting with check-in, and self-checkout is available via the email notification you receive. I’d be very happy to book again.

“Needs improvement”
+The room was big, but the cleaning lady came very late in the afternoon. It was hard to operate the AC unit, and at times it did not work. The drain in the shower was too slow, and you take shower always standing in water ankle high.
