The guesthouse is totally charming and so are the host and his mother. We travel a lot and visit many guesthouses in different countries, but it was the first time we meet such a helpful and thoughtful host! He made the whole file with all the necessary info inside which could solve any question that guest might have. The location is very easy to find and the neighborhood very nice. The rose bushes near the guesthouse entrance stole my heart. Tram stops, supermarket, eating places - everything is near. The room was beautifully decorated in modern style. The bed and the cushions very comfortable . There was a coffee machine, electrical kettle and also coffee/tea/cream provided. The host gave us tickets for free transport. Thank you very much!

I've spent a night in the room, as i was traveling for work, and i needed to buy some personal stuff, and Isan (the person who receives you) helped me a lot about where i could find good stores and good prices around the area as she is a local. She's very friendly, and you get a surprise gift after leaving the place!! I would reserve a room again if I'm around.

The owner actually waited for us, even though this was a self checking guest house. He brought our suitcase upstairs and fetched some more bottles of water. So nice and thoughtful!

The room is spacious and tastefully decorated, featuring a smart TV and high-quality bathroom amenities. Everything you might need is provided. The kitchen is shared but well-equipped—we cooked there several times. It includes an oven, microwave, fridge, electric stove, and cutlery. A bottle opener and corkscrew would be a welcome addition. Although check-in is self-service, the staff was very friendly and offered great recommendations for dining and sightseeing. We visited several of the suggested spots and had a lovely experience overall.

First of all, the price/value ratio is great! We booked a room number to visit Art Basel. Host provided us with free public transportation voucher which we used all our stay. There's a tram connection with the city center (around 25 mins from the nearest station). The great advantage was that we had a free parking spot. Although we had a shared bathroom, it was so clean that we didn't have a feeling that it's shared at all. In our room (which was facing the road and the green field) we had a beautiful terrace with two chairs and a coffee table. We used to enjoy the beautiful sunset time there. The nearest cafes and restaurants were in 10-15 mins walking distance as well as the nearest grocery store.

The Ambrosia Guesthouse completely exceeded my expectations! Check-in with co-owner Anthony was quick and friendly, with great tips for visiting the beautiful medieval town of Rheinfelden. The room is attractively decorated with many little unexpected extras, such as bedside charging stations with multiple ports and high quality toiletries (soap, lotion, shampoo and conditioner). The room was clean and comfortable, with blinds and dark curtains for a good sleep. The location is excellent, being only 5 minutes walk from the train station and 10 minutes walk to the old town. The neighbourhood is quiet, clean and safe. In the morning we enjoyed a lovely fresh breakfast, much of which is homemade by the charming Nathalie and Anthony. The breakfast area is bright and charming, with many lovely little treats and unlimited coffee! We will definitely return again next year when visiting Art Basel, which is easily reached by train and tram from this location.
