Aparthotel Adagio Basel City
Clean room and well equipped. Staff were polite and helpful. As a suggestion only though. They have a lovely garden area but it could do with a little tidy up.

Aparthotel Adagio Access Saint Louis Bâle
Clean, tidy and functional. Staff very helpful and proficient in three languages. Pool to myself each time I used it. No breakfast ordered as fabulous boulangerie just across the road. Easy to access tram links into Basel. Much more cost effective and personable than staying in the city. Try Wok ...
