Relatively easy to find. Good location for springboard to other locations. I liked the church bells. Clean and comfortable. Breakfast was okay. Some staff were friendly, others a bit stand offish. We were in the annexe so had no difficulty with access. Facilities are slightly sparse. Limited breakfast and bar closes early for a hotel. Cleaners a bit hasty in coming into the room on all days.

I hate to leave bad reviews to friendly hard working people but future travelers will need to know about a few problems they may have at this place. While very clean and full of historic charm, this place sits right on a fairly busy street and is also a home to a busy restaurant. Up to about 11 am the noise and smoke from the restaurant was right up in our room. The street traffic somewhat subsided by midnight but the town bell still rang every hour, not even a hundred meters from the hotel. That was probably the worst part of our stay. Because there was no AC or wall fan in the room, we had to leave the windows open and the noise from the bell every hour and occasional traffic literally kept us awake all night. The room, while clean, is very small and very basic, no fridge or tea/coffee maker. Bathroom , while clean, is very dated, with swing out glass door over the bathtub, minimal amount of water from the shower and difficult to adjust hot/cold water. Its also very narrow, for an average person its hard to walk in and not run into a countertop or glass shower door. Internet was literally non existent. It worked for two minutes and then dropped, we played with it and had to use our iphones as mobile hot spots for laptop. Hair dryer in the bathroom didnt work either.

Adler was a beautiful hotel in an iconic, quiet neighborhood but it was a little short on cafes, restaurants and shops and it’s hard to get into Basel downtown from there. It took me over a hour to get to the downtown train station and Swiss phones don’t work in Germany so navigation was challenging.

Great new hosts! Unfortunately the restaurant was closed. Breakfast excellent. You need earplugs for the church bells!
