Although I have stayed at Volkshaus earlier this year (March 2023), the more I travelled both for work and leisure throughout the 2023, I wanted to leave a review for this hotel. To be honest, I wasn’t expecting much nor did I read up about the place prior to my stay. I booked via my usual hotel booking platform because I liked the photos, and needed relatively central. But we all know that 9 times out of 10 there is usually a massive disparity between fiction and reality :) All I want to say - I wish more wannabe-hotelliers (yes, Im talking to you, Hotels with '5*' I stayed at this year) would come and stay at this place to learn about idea, design, construction, and its' execution. If you are like me and appreciate levelled spaces, attention to detail and just clean vibe - I would recommend a visit. Because I am a hopeless construction romantic (every profession comes with it's upsides and downsides 🤣) here is what I appreciated: - a levelled transition between the wet and dry zones, tiles grouted in level and silicone placed properly, and a good ventilation in the shower; - I loved the suede curtain grab (for ease of closing and opening); - I actually appreciated the sockets and plugs away from the bed - for me it worked within the space, and both overhead and bedside lamps worked well as well. Switches for lights were relatively easy to navigate (you know, how most of the time it feels one needs a Phd in lightening🤣?) - I especially appreciated the communication between the street lanterns and the interior wall lights - I don’t know if this was before in the space or was added by the designers - but that was a good dialogue. - Easy and simple system for filling in your water jug (the room had a tray with jug and glasses and it was voiced at the reception how this all works, also that station had coffee and tea and apples); and I loved the drinks cart airplane style at 16:00 to the room. I have had both breakfast and dinner at the hotel as well, and although service was a bit slow, the food was well-made (as in quality stuff) and nothing to add apart from it left a good impression on me and my parents who joined me for breakfast one morning. Generally, good design is expensive - because it requires 1) communication skills between the construction 'symphony' aka team; 2) good 'sheet notes' aka plans and elevations your construction team can read and make sense of it; 3) passion for what one does. Here I felt all of it, and just hope the management will continue taking good care of the staff and this place!

I was pretty disappointed with my 2nd visit to this restaurant on July 30th. It was a very special dinner for my partner and I but I was let down by the service and quality of the food. First off, the main course was already late 45mins late. To make things worse, the server delivered both plates to the table just next to us...it was pretty unbelievable, especially for that table to complain why the steak tartare was a bit spicy (I had requested that, it wasn't for you). We needed to wait an additional 25mins for the kitchen to rush our mains to us. I ordered the beef tartare which was presented subpar (why top with an egg yolk and have serve it already popped, it arrived at the table this way). The server discounted 2 glasses of wine, but this was not sufficient considering it was our anniversary, and we weren't even asked what would make the evening better--they were not service focused, poor attention to detail and quite frankly pitched themselves as a money grab this time around. While sympathetic to the service industry experiencing trouble re: Covid, perhaps consider informing your potential patrons with challenges the evening of so that you avoid letting them down & you manage customer expectations. Hard to respect an establishment that wastes people's time and money.

Really exceptionally good. The salmon starter is world class, and reminded me of Jean-Georges in NY, or various Michelin star places in the cotswolds (but still real food, and great portion size for a starter). Everything else we had was excellent. Our waiter, Lucas, was a real pleasure to speak with over dinner, his advice was spot on in every case, and he made us very comfortable, our meal was enhanced by his presence. The ambiance is excellent, inner private courtyard to look at, good acoustics, great lighting and decor. We would come again, and if we manage to, I'll order the salmon as a main.

Zimmer Das “Volkshaus Classic” Zimmer ist zum Innenhof gelegen, geräumig und einfach stilvoll eingerichtet. Das Kopfteil des King Size Boxspring Bett erinnert an die früher ringförmig um die Bäume im Innenhof angebrachten Holzbänke, wie die bekannten “Landi-Bänke”. Spannend finde ich den Grundriss mit dem mitten im Zimmer gelegen Bett, das durch das offene Bad mit WC- und Duschkabine (und das Wort “Kabine” ist dabei nicht als Räumchen zu verstehen) von beiden Seiten erreichbar ist. Gutes Licht, ein Zementboden mit Rundkies, geräumige Dusche, Kleiderständer, Tisch, Stühle, alles wirklich hochwertig und sehr praktisch. Selbst im Zimmer findet sich Kunst und Bezüge dazu. So war bei uns ein kleines Taschenbuch mit einem Krimi von Georges Simenon aus der Reihe Kommissar Maigret aufgelegt. Amenity Kit und weitere nützliche Dinge aus Bambus und zwei kleine Fläschchen “Underberg”, seit den 50er Jahren DER Bitter nach einem guten Essen. Das Grün findet sich eben überall wieder… Bevor die alljährliche Benefiz-Party “The 80s are back” des Lions Club Basel Käppelijoch mit einem Auftritt von Kim Wild beginnt, legen wir uns noch eine Stunde hin, weil wir an der Bar unseren langen Einsatz haben werden. Hier wird die gute Bausubstanz und die wertigen Baumaterialien definitiv spürbar, man hört nämlich nichts! Ein klitzekleiner Kritikpunkt: der Vorhang lässt für meinen Geschmack etwas zu viel Licht durch. Nach dem erholsamen Schläfchen unter die Dusche: Soeder-Produkte überall. Man setzt auch hier auf Nachhaltigkeit: Soeder produziert 100% natürlich und in der Schweiz. Einfach top!

Gastronomie Die in der ganzen Stadt und weiter bekannte Imi Bar ist einfach toll! Sehr gutes Personal, wunderbare Qualität, effizient und geschmackvolle Einrichtung. Klassiker der Bar-Kulinarik wie das Clubsandwich oder Tartar finden sich ebenso auf der Speisekarte, wie auch Planted Burger oder Hummus. Ganz allgemein ist sehr viel Wert auf eine Ausgewogenheit von Fleisch und Vegi geachtet worden, die sich auch am Frühstücksbuffet durchzieht, wie wir noch sehen werden. Die Brasserie (übrigens 7 Tage die Woche geöffnet) bietet Speisen, die ich mir in manchem ach sooo bekannten Restaurant in Zürich wünschen würde. An die französische Küche angelehnte Spezialitäten, wie Moules Frites, Hummersuppe oder Steak Frites, oder Klassiker wie der unglaublich gute Hackbraten, Steinbutt oder Mistkratzerli und auch Trüffel-Tagliatelle werden in wunderbarer Qualität zubereitet und präsentiert. Desserts wie Crêpes Suzette oder auch ein Assiette de Fromages (alles Rohmilchkäse von Jumi aus dem Emmental) lassen das Wasser im Mund fliessen. Wunderbar!

Räumlichkeiten Flächen für Sitzungen, Events oder Präsentationen werden in sämtlichen Grossstädten der Schweiz sowieso immer rarer und nach dem Joggeli ist wahrscheinlich der fast 500m2 grosse Festsaal der zweitgrösste Raum in Basel. Daneben gibt es im Volkshaus noch den Unionssaal mit etwas über 180m2 und den Galeriesaal mit gut 140m2. Für kleinere Besprechungen empfiehlt sich das Sitzungszimmer mit 90m2. Alle Räume sind mit hervorragender Elektronik ausgerüstet und verfügen neben Toiletten auch z.T. über Garderoben und abtrennbare Bereiche. Sehr flexibel und qualitativ sehr hochwertig! Martin Reinshagen, Geschäftsführer und Manuel Weitling, Leiter Meetings & Events machen einen wirklich tollen Job, ermöglichen fast alles und vermitteln mit ihrer langjährigen Erfahrung eine Ruhe, bei der es schwer ist, in Stress zu verfallen. Danke dafür!

Zusammenfassung Was in Basel auf dem nicht übermässig vorhandenen Raum im Volkshaus angeboten wird, hat Klasse, Sympathie und Genuss. Die Gastfreundschaft geht weit über “modern” hinaus und die Lebendigkeit ist auch beim Personal zu spüren: einfach wunderbar! Wir kommen sehr...
