Hotel Stücki

Stayed here five nights on a business /​pleasure trip in April, which isn’t quite high tourist season, but isn’t quite great weather season either.
Hotel Stücki did a fabulous job. The front desk personnel (especially the blond lady whose name we sadly never caught) were extremely helpful with local attractions, directions, customs, everything you might want to know, as an under-​prepared American tourist.
The room was sizeable, nicely appointed, and the bathroom was well stocked. The shower was perfect, two streams for luxurious morning escapes.
The breakfast buffet was surprisingly good, with a great variety and even a choice between 3– and 7– minute eggs. The juices were a hit. The cottage cheese is other-​worldly. At 18 CHF /​person it’s not cheap, but not expensive by Swiss standards either.
A very short two block walk to the number 8 train into the heart of Basel makes this property almost perfect.
I drop to four stars, because the bed was not comfortable to me, the comforters did not breathe and there was no top sheet, so you’re pretty much forced to sweat it out, even in a chilly room, if you don’t want to sleep uncovered. Also, the floors in the room could’ve used a good mopping.
Otherwise this hotel is fabulous. Keep on Stücking.

I was pleasantly surprised at check in when they informed us what comes free with the room. I’m from Las Vegas so I’m used to not touching the mini bar unless I want to pay up the nose for some water. They said the mini bar was free it came with two bottled waters, a coca cola, an iced tea, beer and some peanuts. The hotel also provided us with two free bus passes.
The room also comes with your basic toiletries like lotion, shampoo (doubles as body wash), comb, ear plugs, shaving supplies, nail file and shower cap. There are also robes and slippers provided for your convenience. The bed was comfortable which was inviting after a lengthy trip.
The breakfast buffet is 18.00 each. It comes with fresh cold cuts, a variety of juices, eggs bacon, donuts, yogurt, breads and they even had ramen! If you are not that hungry you can get toast with jam and coffee for about 8.00. We chose the buffet since we ate super early.
This hotel was a tremendous help in getting us to relax from an over 10 hour flight!

This is my second visit in this hotel, and I totally stand by what I said the first time: the best buffet breakfast I’ve ever had in a hotel so far.
The rest is very enjoyable too, with comfy rooms (and large TV screens with HDMI inputs, to watch a film or review your presentations…). Friendly staff will make sure you’re always happy, whether you’re checking in, or ordering a pint at the bar…
Finally, it’s really well located, by a shopping mall, and close to tram line 8, a river (not the rhine ;), and many nice restaurants.
Prima !

Hätte nicht gedacht das das nur ein 3 Sterne Hotel ist. Wirklich sehr edel und futuristisch neu! Personal ist auch nett. Rundum Top!

Très belles prestations pour un hôtel de cette gamme.
L’accueil y est splendide, efficace et attentionné.
Les chambres sont belles, sans être immenses. La douche pluie sympa, il y a un espace travail utilisable avec câble RJ45 pour l’Internet gratuit (le WiFi est uniquement dans le hall.
Le petit déjeune est très bien exceptées les boissons (jus reconstitués et peu de choix d’infusions).
Le midi il semble y avoir un buffet, mais il se peut que j’aie profité d’un séminaire et qu’il né soit pas toujours ouvert.
Grand parking sous l’hôtel, taxis arrivant rapidement et carte de transports gratuits rendent cet hôtel un peu excentré plus accessible.
Seul bémol, le bruit de la VMC, mais il semblerait que ce soit le prix à payer pour dormir dans un Hotel moderne.
À recommander d’autant plus que le restaurant «Block House» est assez original.
