I had my birthday celebrated during the stay at this hotel and the staff made my day! Everyone worked together, from the receptionist, the chef and the ladies assuring the breakfast service to surprise me with a cake, with candles and even with a toy as a gift from the entire team! These people are amazing and their collective really makes you feel like home away from home.I would like to thank to Alex Chirita especially, for being so friendly on arrival, such a good guide recommending places to visit, he was so kind to plan the birthday surprise and take care to have the exact candles as my birthday age. The attention to details waa a top notch! The location next to the bus station connecting the hotel with the train station and city center it's a big plus! Also, the breakfast's options are so variated and for everyone's taste, always having fresh products. The room was perfectly clean, and bigger than the usual in Basel, the cleaning done everyday with attention and taking care of the personal belongings in the room. The friendliest staff I've encountered in a long time during so many years of travel!

The staff is very friendly and helpful, we did end up paying a bit more to be on the inner side, looking into an internal garden. These are usually very noisy when there are many guests, but the staff made sure there are no such guests outside after 10, so this was a really nice surprise. Not that the front was very busy, but there was some traffic throughout the day, so definitely more noise that a room looking in the back yard. The breakfast was awesome. We are looking forward to visit this one again one day. Perhaps when the kid gets a bit older.

I loved the man from Romania, who did everything about my check-in, in the reception. We got the rooms earlier. He was friendly, funny and helpful! He was just fantastic. We were at the bar during the evening and the cocktails were delicious and we also loved the barman. The breakfast was wonderful and the lady helped us to sit around the perfect table. It was messy, because of the previous guests. She was in a hurry, but she cleaned it soon for us, and kept smiling all the time. Thank you for everything. This hotel was a great decision!

Staff: Reception staff were so welcoming and helpful. Restaurant staff could not have worked harder. Great customer service makes a good stay a great stay- many more expensive hotels could learn from the Dorint Basel City. Room: Well equipped with tea/coffee/water and complimentary mini bar. Comfortable bed. Food and drink: Breakfast was fantastic, great selection of hot and cold food which was kept well stocked and clean. Nice little bar. Only had a drink and breakfast. Didn't eat dinner but the menu looked nice and fairly priced.

The hotel is well connected to tourist attractions by the public transportation. It is a bit old, but clean and spacious. It has an on-site parking, which is very convenient. The breakfast is excellent. The true asset of the hotel, however, is its staff, very friendly, helpful and polite. We had an incident related to the noise coming from the restaurant, and the staff, including the manager, resolved it quickly and to our full satisfaction (thanks a lot, Julia!). We will surely stay in the same hotel next time.
