Top hotels in St. Johann

Airport Hotel Basel
Check in was very slow. They blamed staffing shortages, but room was nice. Food and drink was extremely overpriced, even by notoriously expensive Swiss standards. I’ve traveled throughout Switzerland for 5 years. It was high. So stay away from the hotel restaurant and you’ll be ok
