20 hotel reviews for Mercure Hotel Europe
If you the room to the side of the road you can hear even with the windows closed the tram, and in the summer, it was very hot, because the hotel no air conditioning and the windows could be only tilted. The shower has only one nasty shower curtain. In the room there was a small tv with poor (snow) image. The size of the room was okay, the single bed was a bit wider. Read more

Conclusion: for business and fair bsuche I would the house, due to its location, again.... Read more

An ideal city hotel. The tram stops right in front of the entrance. The Baden train station is only two stops. The Clara square-the center of small Basel-it was only a few steps away and the Schifflände/Rhine is about ten minutes walking distance. The hotel bajazzo restaurant has a menu, but we elected the menu was excellent and summer for Swiss standards cheap. Otherwise some restaurants around the corner (toward fair). Read more

There are several restaurants, bars and coffee houses close to the hotel and we found a great little pizza place for supper and a coffee house for breakfast, as travelling with children can be a little tricky with regards to food. - in May 11
