The service was impeccable, no request was too much for the amicable front office staff. The beverage station on every floor was a great touch. Previous reviews mentioned the sound of church bells to be disturbing at night, but we found them to be soothing and not inconvenient. Loved the design concept running through the hotel and we look forward to exploring their sister properties.

FAQs about hotels in Basel

Switzerland Through the Ages

At the meeting point of Switzerland, Germany and France, Basel is an eclectic mix of historic and modern, tranquil and vibrant. With Swiss cleanliness and efficiency thrown in for good measure.

Augusta Raurica on its outskirts houses a well-preserved Roman theatre, while the Old Town is a museum of medieval buildings. The Renaissance Town Hall looks down on Marktplatz’s daily market, while the red sandstone and colourful tiles of the Münster were reconstructed in the 19th century. Bringing it right up to date are the modern creations of city residents Herzog & De Meuron, designers of London’s Tate Modern.

When you’ve finished exploring this architectural heritage, there are still plenty of things to do in Basel. The city’s fine art museum is the world’s oldest art collection, and the zoo is the oldest and largest in Switzerland. Remember to bring plenty of Swiss francs for the shopping mile along Clarastrasse and Freiestrasse.

The Basel accommodation on Booking.com ranges from hotels in Grossbasel to B&Bs in Kleinbasel, home to the nightlife. If you’re flying into Basel-Mulhouse-Freiburg Airport in February or March you might just catch Fasnacht: Switzerland’s biggest carnival. You’ll have to get up early to see it start though - 4am!

Basel is very easy to navigate.

Basel is very easy to navigate. You can quickly reach every point and landmark in the city. Public transport is very well organized, there are always places to sit. The proverbial Swiss punctuality is exactly as they describe it. In the central part, most of the landmarks are within walking distance. The surrounding environment in the city is very calm and there is no traffic of cars or people.

The Xmas market is a lot smaller but is nice enough, for a weekend break or you can go on to Colmar or Strasbourg by train or transfer which is what we did. We saw all the main things in Basel within two days.

We were there to catch a river cruise for the Christmas markets. It was one of the best places we stayed on our 5 week trip around northern Europe. The tram system is easy to navigate. Very clean and if you stay near the river, you are close to everything. They had great restaurants and an awesome roof top bar ( B1 roof top bar ) just a short tram ride away from the center of the city.

Basel was a nice surprise.

Basel was a nice surprise. A lot of old world charm, great traditional bakeries and coffee houses. The transportation is super with trams and buses running frequently. It felt large enough without being touristy. The fine arts museum is top notch h with some great artists represented.

A great base to have when exploring Switzerland.

A great base to have when exploring Switzerland. Basel is full of history and has one of the best local history museums I've seen. One could spend the whole day in the Basel Historical Museum. From the Bronze Age to modern times, this place has it. Various restaurants and all types of shopping dot the Old Town area. The transportation system(city trams and trains) is on time and efficient. We explored Zermatt and Lucerne, while keeping a base in Basel. The international airport has easy access from downtown.

Basel is a very nice city and definitely worth visiting. Make sure to hire a bike, go along the Rhine and visit 3 countries in just a couple of hours. The Markthalle is a must. However, everything is pricey.

On the bright side: 1. The location on a 5-minute walking distance from the main train station, it's convenient. 2. Also you have access to 2 or 3 pretty big grocery stores located in and around the station. 3. It was pretty easy to get access to the hotel and the room — they send you the code which you use everywhere in the building. 4. The hotel provides you with some cooking utilities, so you can save some money and cook for yourself (Switzerland is EXPENSIVE). 5. The furniture looks nice, the original designer had a taste.

Great breakfast and the price for Switzerland is amazing for what you get at this hostel. The concept of Switzerland where you get a free travel card is a very big plus: with the Basel Card that was provided it was easy (and free) to use public transport in the city. Within 10 minutes at the citycentre and a busstop in front of the hostel accommodates you to the nearby trainstation.

The hotel is conveniently located in a quiet area. The building is beautiful, the room was much larger than expected, and the facilities were quite new. There is also a small garden inside the hotel. Among all the places my friend and I stayed during our week-long trip in Switzerland, this was the one we were most satisfied with and considered to have the best value for money.
