It was a clean room and quiet enough. There was noise from outside (ground floor) due to the businesses nearby but not bothersome if you close the window. Coffee/tea outside on each floor.

Very friendly staff, tasty breakfast and clean rooms. The public transportation card you get at check in is great as well and all buses, trams and trains leave just around the corner.

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!
Reception staff was enthusiastic and helpful. Our room worked well for us. It was clean and had all we needed. Location was perfect. It was 5 minutes walking from the train station. There was also a free bus to the airport at the train station. We felt very safe walking there at 5:00am. This bus runs an incredible number of trips each day of the week back and forth from the Europort. Although compact rooms. It was all we needed. Least expensive hotel we had in more than a week in Switzerland. I would stay there again.
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.
The other hotel I stayed in Switzerland didn't provide shampoo and soap, but Vision Apartments provides high quality ones with big volume. The location is excellent as well - 10 minutes walks from the central station, and can easily take tram trains to museums or even by walk. The pool area on the roof top is a must visit. The yard on the ground in the hotel is also very cozy. We bought food from Micro and enjoyed our diner in the yard.
I stayed there the first night and last night of my holiday in Switzerland. On the first night I asked for some extra pillows as I sleep sitting up, and also for a seat and/or rubber mat for the shower as i am elderly and scared of slipping. I was impressed to find when I arrived two weeks later, that the receptionist had remembered what i had requested before and they were already in my room.
Kai was really helpful and spoke excellent English, and it was easy to communicate with him about my arrival time etc. Everything was very clean and the room had all I needed and was bigger than I expected. Seemed good value for Switzerland! Easy to walk into town and also very close to a tram stop for getting to the train station etc.
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.
The property is conveniently located, the staff is very accommodating. We didn’t know that Switzerland has different outlets from Europe, so we got into a story with charging devices. The staff sorted out this in few minutes. We also had dinner at the restaurant, and we liked it very much.
This is a well-priced (for Switzerland) hotel, about a 20minute walk from Basel old town. It is exactly what you would expect from an Ibis Budget, and the staff were helpful in providing an adaptor (my regular one did not work with the Basel region's sockets).
Wonderful location right near Old Town and next to the Spalentor Gate, one of the remaining original gates of Old Town Basel. The bus stop was in front of the Hotel. The rooms were spacious and front desk check in was friendly and helpful.
Excellent location on the edge of the old town.
Interesting combination of old guest house, theatre and art displays with the modern building that we stayed in.
Nice breakfast (expensive but in line with everything in Switzerland).
Breakfast was good but very expensive as is Switzerland
Hotel staff exceptional - giving me a kettle when I asked for boiling water and a glass when I bought some wine from their chiller
Was even able to get BBC 1&2 on room TV
Especially interesting for people knowing the area. It is not central but very well connected by public transport and a lot cheaper than hotels in the city centre. it is not part of one of the big chains and feels more personal.
Wonderful location in “Old Town”. Super staff. Lovely rooms. Terrific touches and facilities all around the property. I’d recommend this hotel to everyone.
