Basel Youth Hostel

Basel|0.97km from Museum Tinguely
I booked a night in a single room with Lavabo - the price is currently at 95,- CHF + 4,- courtage. I am not in a hotel because I wanted to save money and Switzerland is much more expensive than Germany. Benefits of youth hostels: The booking includes a Basel card that allows you to use all the public service free of charge. Furthermore, you pay only 50% of the entry at museums etc. Another advantage: the location of the youth heritage very central, but still quiet (only with regard to the city event), in the old town very close to the Rhine. You can walk to the center. The neighborhood is idyllic. I had a room with windows on the opposite side of the Rhine, there cooled it in spite of a hot summer day in the night nicely from another advantage: breakfast is quite good, it is already ready from 6:00, and the coffee/cappucino from the machine is of high quality. However, one must pay for a cappucino outside the breakfast hours CHF 4.00. A room without shower/WC with Lavabo is easy because there are enough toilets and single showers available on the floor. And a good shower bathtub was to be borrowed for 3,- CHF. The staff of the youth hostels were very friendly. Most other guests do not, often my greeting was not answered on the hall. Now to the disadvantages that weigh more seriously for my needs than the benefits: first of all the relative brightness. Relatively because the construction substance appears normal in this respect, but the behaviour of other guests is ignorant. At the time of my stay, many families with small children were present, some of which let their children cry unremittingly (without pain or dispute) - the children cry partly for fun at crying, in the rooms, but also, Because it is so beautiful in the concrete halls, and well because the parents thought that all could be left in a youth hostel. I didn't say anything to these families because I know from experience that it doesn't bring anything and because I just stayed a night. But I have spoken to the staff, but nothing has been done (that is probably also useless for them). I myself visited Basel to look at a lot of art, and I am a guy who needs a guest room as a place of withdrawal even daily to get back. The impressions in this interesting city are overwhelming. This youth hostel is not suitable for this. I could only sleep with earstops, and that's only uncomfortable. Unfortunately, the room can only be obtained from 15:00 - I would have wished to be able to rest a little before and make me fresh after the long arrival of a hot day (but probably it would have been too loud to rest). In the room there are no hooks or similar to hang towels or clothes. Also in the toilets

Basel Marriott Hotel

Business trip, the room is not bad, just opposite the exhibition hall, the train station to the hotel 20 minutes drive. The executive lounge room is set, the executive lounge is in the room opposite the reception desk, there are not many choices 😂
Becozy Self Check-in Hotel Basel an der Messe
3.2/513 Reviews
After almost 50 years, the hotel Basilik was sold in the 3rd generation. A hotel full of stories and anecdotes will be remembered. As a KV student, I was allowed to graduate and enter the world hotel shop at Cavegn family and my way went through the Basilisk. Enjoy the closure as a employees is the most beautiful goodbye. After 24 years of hotel shop, it is now time to take a new way. Thank you for the beautiful time.
Consum Residence by Krafft Basel
4.1/55 Reviews
Super central location on the Middle Bridge, stylishly furnished rooms, clean, free water and sweets on the floor, fast and uncomplicated check-in and check-out. Overall very recommended! Some bars in the street where the hotel is, i.e. if you want to sleep early, you should probably have Ohropax with it. But for example for Silvester/New Year, for example, it was absolutely super!
Royal Hotel - Urban Living
4.1/59 Reviews
The Hotel is no frills and if you arrive after 4PM you have to checkin via an electronic kiosk by the door. You fill up a bunch of screens and in the end it gives you a keycard to enter the hotel. You also have to use it in the elevator as the hotel is only on the 4th floor and all other floors have locks. The room was fairly large and well equipped. I particularly loved the alligator shaped soaps for the kids and the fully stocked minibar which was entirely free. There were also chocolates and cookies on the pillows. Nice wi-if too. Breakfast is served in a tiny room downstairs and even though there was a tiny amount of each of the things to eat, it was replaced often. The only person working in the hotel in the morning is the receptionist and the one tending breakfast. She was nice and responsive to our needs. A very good option for those needing to take the train from Basel Bad in the morning. A bit far from the city’s interesting bits though.
Hotel Restaurant Resslirytti
4.2/546 Reviews
LOVELY hotel But RACIST restaurant staff !! Not recommended restaurant!! Excellent HOTEL staff, really good rooms and amazing service. The breakfast is really amazing too. Rooms were really clean. The tram stop is just few metre walk and the location is perfect. BUT, I wont recommend the attached restaurant at all !! ------ RACIST RESTAURANT STAFF !! Date-14.05.2023, Time-19:24 First, the restaurant staff asks if we have reservation or not. After we said ‘No’, he made us sit at a corner of the restaurant, which really dusty and like a storage corner for the restaurant stuff like menus, cutlery etc etc. We were sitting separate from the “white-skinned” guests. After us, when other guests with NO reservation arrived, they were made to sit with other “white” customers. Now, coming to the food. We ordered 3 Risotto Milanese. The rice was so hard and not at all cooked. We even couldn’t finish 2/3rd of the food. I want to ask the “Cook” if he knows how to boil the rice. Show a YouTube tutorial video of boiling rice to a 15 year old kid and I am sure that he can cook better after watching the tutorial. We complained to the restaurant staff. He apologized with his fake smile and got us the bill and asked to pay. Total bill: CHF 86.10 A complete Sh*t racist experience for me and my parents with worst food in Switzerland. It was my first time experience of Risotto for my parents and they decided to never try Risotto again ever. After getting out of restaurant, we went to bakery to buy some bread for dinner.
Silo Design & Boutique Hostel
4.4/545 Reviews
The place was beyond my expectation. The hostel looks wonderful from inside with historical character. The rooms are perfectly well organized and neat. The washrooms are clean. The staff are friendly and always there to help you, the receptionist recommended nice places to visit in Basel. They also give me a bike for free to help exploring the city. Check in and out process went smoothly and professionally, you can even do it totally online. The breakfast also was fantastic. The location is a walk distance from the Dan bahnhof and you can easily pick up a tram to go to the old city center. I highly recommend this place to whoever wants to visit Basel.
