A modern hotel with great tradition

 

1954 − a new hotel emerges

The Hotel du Commerce is built right next to Messe Basel and it is still run today by representatives of its owners, the Weibel family.

 

1999− the first phase of renovation

The new «Patio» annex in the hotel's inner courtyard is officially opened. The spacious Patio rooms are all air conditioned, offering our guests even more comfort. The hotel lobby, the hotel corridors, and the breakfast room are also refurbished, and the hotel's own underground car park is opened.

 

2002/3 − second phase of renovation

The courtyard rooms and the rooms on the fifth floor are remodelled into state-of-the art hotel rooms.

 

2003 

After 50 years of providing hospitality, the Weibel family hands over the hotel keys to a younger generation. Raffaella Pedrazzetti Bucher, the great-niece of Werner Weibel, and her husband Patrik Bucher uphold the great tradition of the Hotel du Commerce by offering guests a friendly, personal and family atmosphere.
