10/10 Excellent

"Booked at 10pm and checked in at 12am as we came into Basel late - front desk gentleman was super great. Helped with directing parking (our car was higher than 1.9m so the basement hotel parking wasn’t possible but concierge send us to one nearby Claramatte(?) 5 minutes walk away which was fine (overnight 10pm-7am was €1.50 per hour. Hotel was clean, bright modern decor. Wife was very very happy with bathroom lighting as other premium hotels we’ve been in the past had quite dark lighting so didn’t help for make up but Pullman Basel was rated best for her. Breakfast was simple and reasonably priced. Trams stopped directly outside and train stations nearby but we didn’t hear any noise (and we were on second floor). Overall great experience and sleep. Complimentary water and Nespresso."
