Spent 2 nights here at less than half the price of the Brand name hotels. Hotel provides a regional transit pass for the duration of your stay. This hotel is a perfect example of a what hotel should be like. Staff outstanding, rooms immaculate, Breakfast buffet excellent, Self serve coffee and tea available all day, and a late afternoon and... More

From the moment we entered our welcome was warm, human and helpful. The cost of the perfectly adequate, and very clean, room included to our surprise a free pass for public transport and afternoon refreshments, with wine and a snack. The hotel exists to support a charity, and perhaps this why all the staff were so hospitable. An easy walk... More

Steinenschanze is a no frills, comfortable hotel. The rooms, albeit small, are immaculately clean and the morning breakfast buffet is superb. The location cannot be beat - about a 2 minute walk from Barfusserplatz, and about a 15 minute walk from Banhoff SBB. Above all, what makes the hotel extra special is the friendliness and warmth of the staff. Feels... More

Everything in Switzerland are expansive. The Steinenschanze Stadthotel is an exception. This is a rather basic hotel without much flare but that is the beauty. I would prefer this one from expansive hotels around the main train station. It is a no frill hotel close to most attractions in Basel. For that price you cannot ask for more. The reception... More

Just back from the Christmas Markets in Basel and stayed at this hotel. Can't fault it. The price was excellent for a hotel that included breakfast, 3 days free public transport and outstanding hospitality. It is a short trip on the bus from the Airport (free) and then just one stop on another bus to right outside the hotel (free).... More

Perfect location in the center of Basel. All main attractions of old city in distance of short walk. Very nice and helpful staff. You receive a map of the city, transport map and ticket for 3 days unlimited travel on public transport. A very good idea is to spend a little of time in the lounge area, where you can... More

We enjoyed a nice stay in the Steinenchanze Hotel in Basel. The rooms are not very spacious, but normal. Bathroom is quite small. Because of the high prices in Switzerland you have a good value for money. As there is no airconditioning I expect it to be hot in Summer. If you open the windows at the roadside it might... More

Two nights, business. (room at the back) + Breakfast (ask for eggs, they will make them any way you want) + Free Wifi + Location + First experience of Hotel with modern design radio and mini-jack (for your portable device) -Bit small room but nicely furbished. All in all, a very pleasant experience.

Was my first trip to Basel. At first the hotel looked quite average. The room was small but cozy. However over the 10 days of my stay, the services were just fabulous. The hotel is clean, very conveniently located, with the tram station, train station, and many restaurants nearby. The staff is ever ready for help. The breakfast served in... More
