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.
5.0
Modern, clean and nice rooms. A bit tricky to park the car, but no biggie. The night staff was a bit on the grumpier side though, could have been a bit more welcoming.

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.

This hotel was practically located with easy access to trams in every direction. Beds were too soft and pillows like a rock. Breakfast way too expensive for what was offered.

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.

Standard Novotel. Rooms a little small. Only Nescafé in room.

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.

The sheets were stained with what looked like mold, black spots and were quite scratchy. They didn’t fit the bed and shifted all through the night. And the duvet kept falling out. Closet smelled sour so I didn’t put clothes in it. But the AC worked well at least.

The room seems to be new, everything was clean and smelling good. The staff were amazing! They even gave a special kid set to my toddler. I have not to say than I’m glad to choose this hotel.

The hotel is really good, not only it is modern and well maintained, but offers one of the best buffet breakfast i have experienced. Staff is friendly and helpful. Don't be fooled by the location (which on paper seems a bit far from the main city centre; the location is actually quite convenient.... it is a tram stop away from the main train station (5 min including walking to the tram stop), but if you want to go directly to the city there is another tram stop nearby that will take you there in 10 mins or less. I found it quite convenient and also away from the noise and busyness of the city. Internet was fast and they have other amenities like a gym. The airport is some 20 mins away, just be careful when calling a taxi or uber as the app doesn’t seem to recognise well the location, but i found that if you pick the ibis budget hotel as the pick up location (which is next door) you will have no problems., plus there is parking for taxis there (the main entrance of the Novotel has no parking for taxi pickip).

Very pleased with our stay at Novotel Basel City, rooms were very modern and clean. Although our room was right beside the hotel lift we never heard any noise from outside or adjacent rooms. Although the hotel is in a quiter area it is located not far from the main train station and within short walking distance of multiple tram stops to transfer to main station and rest of Basel. I would definitely book again

Lovely breakfast. Very kind and friendly staff. Handy for public transport.
Room was so hot it was impossible to sleep. Using the AC did not help. Had to open a window and then the road noise from the busy intersection outside also prevented sleep.
Not good for the environment.

Staff were very friendly, room was clean and quiet. The gentleman behind the bar could have been slightly happier. Also, the club sandwich was 27 CHF which was a bit of a shock!
