Closest place to living in a castle overlooking the vineyards and town. Spacious rooms with great amenities...this is definitely an atypical place in the Alsace region. Breakfast was varied and yummy. We didn't have any opportunities to use the other fun games and amenities but I can see how this would be a great resort for those with kids/teens. I would return again!

This little gem is exactly what you need if you are headed out of town from Basel --- free transportation to the airport and clean/quiet. Staff was outstanding --- couldn't be any better.

really good value for money accommodation, for the price & proximity to Basel city centre it was the best I could find. From arriving the staff were all very friendly & professional. The room was clean with all electrical appliances working. The only downside was a little noise from the traffic outside, with the room facing the road. We didn’t use the breakfast facilities or the pool, this was our own choice. If visiting Basel again we would definitely consider staying at the hotel.
