The location is in a nice area of Basel very close to the Rhein , with nice little Cafes and restaurant. ( A bit tricky to find) Only 10 min walk away to the city centre. The room itself was not very big, but high quality interiors, very comfortable bed, the bathroom was very spacious. The weather was extremely hot for beginning of September. We struggled a bit with the nights as we only had very warm down feather duvets without AC. Couldn’t open the windows because of the outdoor noise of the bar on the ground floor and the main hotel on the opposite side of the narrow road. It was a shame that we only spotted the coffee and tea facilities outside the room on the corridor when we departed.

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 was much nicer than I had anticipated!
Basel was much nicer than I had anticipated! I usually go to Luzern and Zurich while traveling by train; making them brief stops of two or three days. This time I stopped in Basel and I was delighted with this wonderful city! I can’t wait to return and plan on staying a few more days to take it all in! Wonderful for shopping and dining and easy to get to on the train. Also convenient for visiting surrounding areas, making an ideal home base for longer visits in Switzerland.

We absolutely loved the zoo!
We absolutely loved the zoo! Quite small but the layout was deceptive so that it seemed much larger. The animals appeared well cared for and the enclosures were spacious with attention to enriching the environment for them, while at the same time allowing the visitors to get very close to them. In a very expensive country the entrance fee was very reasonable and half price with the Basel card.
The university botanical garden was also a little gem with a collection of unusual plants beautifully displayed and free to visit.
Basel itself an attractive city with a good feel about it. Don’t miss the quirky fountains near the theatre in the centre of town. Everything is very expensive for a British visitor which applies to Switzerland in general.

Perfect for a city break and good connection even to travel...
Perfect for a city break and good connection even to travel to other cities nationally and internationally as Basel is sandwhiched between France and Germany so, up to you where your heart will lead you for a day trip towards those countries.
Peaceful and efficient. Trasport good, people chilled.
Be ready to bring some money if you need to stay longer.

Basel is magical, I really enjoyed visiting it.
Basel is magical, I really enjoyed visiting it. The old town is so so nice. It's also very well connected to other places like Reigoldswil for the waterfall or to Augusta Raurica which I recommend.

Lovely city, but very expensive!
Lovely city, but very expensive! Mind you that most kitchens close at 21h and don't accept customers well in advance, as well as lots of places are closed on Sundays and Mondays. Go for all the beauty of the city, but bring the big wallet and plan to eat out early if you don't rent a place with a kichen and cook yourself. Don't bother to stay on a Monday, and consider to leave early on a Sunday, those two days are very, very quiet in Basel!
It was a safe nice and environment for my wife and her friend. This was their first time in Basel and they couldn't believe the location. It was near everything and they loved being in the middle of the Christmas market . The rooms where extremely quiet considering the location and they were clean. She mentioned the receptionist who also spoke Spanish was a very friendly and helpful person. As they continue to travel through Switzerland they decided to come back one more time as it was a very positive experience.
Good location for day trips by train, 10 minute walk to the train station. Also short walk to Barfusserplatz for tram and Christmas market. We walked all over the central/old town area. Room was spacious and well appointed. I liked that the mini bar was a fridge so I could put my own drinks in it. The beds were more comfortable than most hotel beds. Staff was very nice and helpful. Breakfast was nice upstairs in the rooftop bar, featured local products.
The location is on the bus route between the train stations so getting around was simple. Our room was exactly as described, it was very comfortable, clean, and quiet, even though it was street-facing. Switzerland is expensive, so having a hearty breakfast really set us up for the day. Breakfast was self-service, there was a good range of hot and cold items, and everything was replenished regularly.
The idea of a capsule is excellent! For someone who suffers from sleeping problems and with limited budget like me, it is a perfect option between hostel and hotel.
I like my capsule. It was very quiet and clean.
The price is unbeatable in Switzerland.
The location is very good, 5 mins walk from Basel SBB.
It is not possible for an early check-in but they offer a luggage room.
The staffs are nice.
The location was excellent with easy access to transportation. Everything was in easy walking distance from hotel. The hotel was located on a marketplatz with food vendors etc. The staff at the hotel were very friendly and had great recommendations for sightseeing and food. The rooms were very well appointed and comfortable with complimentary snacks and drinks.
We had a nice, roomy apartment with a bathroom, two bedrooms and a balcony for half the price of two double rooms in Bern Ibis budget hotel, which was a nice surprise. The location is excellent, in a silent street, a 5 min walk from the train station. I liked the relaxed atmosphere of the lounge. The host at the unified bar/reception was kind and helpful.
The staff was extremely nice, very friendly and warm. I could get a room in the morning as it was already prepared although check-in starts in the afternoon. The bed was VERY comfortable. Everything feels and look very new, not my favorite interior design style but you can see they are making an effort ;-) qood quality price ratio, at least for Switzerland
The customer service support was
great. This is a self checkin hotel, and when we arrived due to a problem in booking.com sistem our payment was not visible. The lady from hotel's customer support was very helpful and even if it was late in the night, she resolved the problem and we entered our room without any problem.
Loved the convenience to Old Basel through the Spalentor Gate. Bus and Tram stops right outside hotel made trips around Basel and into France and other parts of Switzerland a breeze. Easy transfer to airport, Basel Card for free bus, tram. Reception always ready to make sure you get the right transportation.
Enjoyed our stay at Hotel D which was a small boutique hotel with lovely rooms and staff that was ready to greet and answer questions. A delicious breakfast offered each morning for an additional fee was well worth it. Great location made it easy to access public transportation and walk to old Town areas.
Loved loved loved everything. Everything feels like great quality from the attention of the staff, the toiletries, the sheets etc. Bonus: gym and spa access. Nothing is casual here, all has the intention to create a perfect experience. My favorite hotel in Switzerland right now.
Quiet small hotel, located in walking distance from both Messeplatz and old city centre. Pleasant, helpful staff. When you come in after 10.00 pm you need to call (if you forgot to bring the access number), and they took the call immediately. Good value for money, clean place.
We loved this hotel. Great location, design, comfort... what more could you want. We have stayed twice. Reasonable value for Switzerland, too. We cycled there on our own bikes and they let us keep them in the courtyard. Super helpful staff.
Considering the price in Switzerland, this please is ptretty cost-efficient. Location is ok as hotel offeres a Basel card covering free trasnaportation, and there are bus 10, 11 and 15 near the hotel. Room was basic and simple.
Location right in old town! Ambience...beautiful surroundings. This hotel started out as a church in 1130 AD, then it was a monastery and after that a police station and prison! If these walls could talk.
It's a really high house for Switzerland. We were in the eleven floor and the view was amazing. The room has everything you need to stay for a few days.
