Before your very own day in Basel begins, it's best to start with a refreshing boost! Every morning, our team prepares a lovingly arranged breakfast buffet for you – you can feast from 6:30 a.m. in the relaxed ambience of our ‘Josephine’ breakfast lounge!
We prepare a fine selection of regional products and morning delicacies for you. As befits an authentic bed and breakfast hotel in Basel, fine coffee specialities are also very important to us in Switzerland! Taste and enjoy!
Even today, we look back with admiration at the social commitment of the English-born Josephine Elizabeth Butler, the charitable founder of this house. Josephine, who in the second half of the 19th century campaigned as a women's rights activist for respect, understanding and respect in dealing with each other and, above all, for the social betterment of women, is still a great role model for us today. All the more reason to name our breakfast room after this dynamic lady as a symbol of a good start to the day.
We are convinced that: the small, fine details and passion for what we do determine the success of your mission or, to put it less dramatically, a good start to the day! That would certainly have been entirely in keeping with the spirit of our namesake Josephine Butler...
