Rooms were spacious, clean and the beds comfy. Breakfast was very basic. Small shower but convenient, Internet was a bit of an hassle since you constantly had to login but it was free. I would stay in the hotel again if the price is not more than what I paid this time, otherwise there are better alternatives More

Just returned from a short business trip in Switzerland. I stayed in the Hotel Basilea only one night, but I think it was enough to establish a fair opinion: - The location is very good. Near the river, relatively close to the train station and to the old town. Many pubs in the streat and for families be careful.. this... More

We stayed in the Hotel Basilea for one night as a break in between flying from Canada to India in November. This hotel was recommended to us by our travel agent as a reasonably priced hotel in the heart of the old city. The location can not be beat, minutes from rail city, and seconds from shopping, historic attractions, and... More

So. Firstly. Swiss hotels are expensive, generally, compared to the rest of the world, and at CHF245 a night I was expecting something half decent. It was not. Upon checking in, I was greeted by a young woman who was very disinterested. I had a couple of bags with me and asked for an iron and ironing board to be... More

Our travel agent picked this hotel, and we were very pleased. The hotel is very near the train station, so you can easily skip the taxi and roll your luggage over to the hotel. It's near a major restaurant area as well, and it's easy walking distance to the downtown attractions. We arrived tired from a transatlantic flight, early in... More

Stayed there for one night in september. Quick check-in and check-out. Didn't eat breakfast. Everything quite tight and small - the reception, the stairwell, the elevator, the room. Room and bathroom extraordinary clean and new-looking, really had everything needed - even a shaving mirror, extra paper towels, and small safe. Walls seem to be a bit thin, but heard no... More
