The breakfast didn't change much every day but had everything we needed! The room was spacious enough and quiet, they provided a baby cot for our son that had everything he needed - sheets, blanket, pillow - Thank you!

Super good value stay. Close to train station and very convenient to everywhere. The week I booked the price was insanely good for single person and the room has everything needed and super clean and functioning perfectly. The bed was very comfortable.What's amazing is that I checked in at around 9am! I was hoping to leave my luggage there but the reception said my room was ready. Amazing!

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 the outskirts, has a well-preserved Roman theater, 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 colorful 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 accommodations on Booking.com range 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 catch the 4 am start, though!
Lovely walkable historical city
Lots of museums and City give free Basil card if you stay there which offers free public transport and discounts helps redress the cost of meals
Markethall was great place to eat lots of choice of food stalls and at reasonable prices and open long hours

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!
The hotel is located right opposite Basel SBB, and only 10 min walk from the old town. It looks freshly refurbished, nicely decorated. The room I had was in the annex facing the inner courtyard: clean, comfortable, with a good bed. I wish I had noticed that the control panel for the heating also activated the external blackout roller: when I tried at checkout it seemed to do a good job. Staff was friendly and nice, ready to help. Overall great overnight stop.
The hotel location is excellent. We took bus #50 from the airport to the train station. The hotel is a short walk from the bus stop. It was a leisure walk to the old town. There were a lot of places to get food in the train station or the Markthalle nearby.
The breakfast was very good. A good selection of food and freshly made coffee. The hotel staff was helpful and friendly.
It is a small and friendly place to be. The staff is lovely. I had a super friendly welcome, and got helpful information for everything I needed. I loved the amenities in the room and the bathroom, and everything is super clean. Considering the prices in Switzerland I found this to be excellent value for money. It will be my place to go when I come back to Basel.
As good as I expected to an youth hotels in Switzerland. Very good location(very easy to find), kind staff...I just happened to share the room with a bit crazy girl and it wasn't their fault that she wasn't well and drunk, but they changed my room on my request at the end...except that incident, everything was good and I had a great stay in Basel youth hostel.
Incredible location, seamless check in and out. Everything we need was ready when we arrived. We all know that Switzerland is quite expensive country, we decided to make our own food and drinks at Nest and it work perfectly. We decreased our expenses quite a bit. I suggest the same for all budget travellers like us. Have a nice trip.
This hotel was fine for a night or two stay. It was clean and had a fridge. We borrowed a kettle from reception. It’s on a tram line so was easy access from the station but too far to walk with luggage. The area was fine and there were supermarkets a few blocks away. Value for money in expensive Switzerland!!
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.
2 large bedrooms with washing machine and dryer! Nice outdoor deck. Roomy, comfortable beds, easy access into apt. Right on tram line for Basel tourist sites. Grocery store close but note prices are more expensive in Switzerland and alcohol is not sold in grocery stores.
The hotel is clean, modern, and well located. The personnel were pleasant, and accommodating. Breakfast was delicious, and plentiful. They even made me oatmeal as a special request. The trams pass by regularly, and the old town is all within a block of the hotel.
It was a very clean room, there was a playroom for kids, and the staff was very helpful.
There was a coupon from the hotel for the city transport for free, that was very nice and helpful.
