Fodor's Expert Review Der Teufelhof Basel
Leonhardsgraben 49, Basel, Basel-City, 4051, Switzerland Fodor's Choice
The Teufelhof is actually two hotels in one: the Art Hotel has nine rooms that are works of art in their own right and were stunningly reconceived by well-known artists such as Switzerland's Dieter Meyer, while the simple rooms of the adjoining Gallery Hotel function as a canvas for a single artist to show off recent work or for an exhibit on a particular theme (such as historic photographs of Basel). The complex, which includes parts of an old abbey, features not only two restaurants, a café, a wine shop, and a brewery, but also an in-house theater that puts on performances in German from mid-September to early May.

- great location—only three tram stops away from the main station
- excellent service
