Hotel Erica in Langenbruck, in the Basel-Landschaft Jura, hosts weddings, birthdays, company parties and small seminars. Its largest room, the Jura-Saal, holds 55 to 60 guests, and four smaller rooms take groups of about 20. The hotel has 16 bedrooms and a kitchen that cooks seasonally.
Seminars and company events
The hotel names seminars among the uses of its large hall. A separate seminar room of 24 square meters sits on the lower level, with flipcharts and a beamer available on request. For bigger seminar groups, the hotel recommends the municipal rooms in the Revue building just below the hotel, and says it can coordinate with the municipality. A company party in Advent in the Jura-Saal is one of the formats the hotel mentions.
Closed periods apply: the hotel announces breaks from October 26 to November 18, 2026, from December 21 to 25, 2026 and from January 25 to March 18, 2027.
Weddings and receptions
The Jura-Saal can host events from a wedding to a birthday to a company party. The hotel does not state separate wedding capacities, so ask for the layout and the number of guests you plan. The terrace with a view and the Ofenzimmer, a room with a tiled stove, add options for an aperitif or a small dinner.
Rooms and capacities
The Jura-Saal measures about 50 square meters and holds 55 guests, although one caption on the page says 60. The Ofenzimmer is just under 30 square meters and takes 20. The Salon measures 25 square meters and takes about 20 guests. The Seminarraum measures 24 square meters. The Waldhüsli measures about 30 square meters. The hotel does not give a capacity for these last two rooms.
Accommodation
The hotel has 16 rooms, completely renovated in 2020. Beds are solid wood, and the rooms are described as stylishly renovated. The hotel also sells overnight stays with half board for walking groups.
Catering
The kitchen works with the seasons. The restaurant serves dinner to outside guests by prior booking until noon on the same day, subject to availability, and coffee and cake are served daily from 1 p.m. Menus for events are arranged with the team, as the pages consulted do not list event menus.
History and setting
Rosalie and Emil Müller-Dettwiler commissioned the hotel in 1906, and the Basel architect J. Nägelin designed it in a transitional style between Neo-Baroque and Art Nouveau. It opened as a guesthouse in 1907. The family ran it for generations. Julia and Kathrin Fritsche took over in 2020, and it reopened in early 2021 after renovation. The village is a spa town in green Jura country, with walking routes to the Belchenflue.
Getting there
The pages consulted link to an arrival page that was not read, so the nearest station is not confirmed here. The address is Erikaweg 7, 4438 Langenbruck. Reception is open daily from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m.
