Casa Esperanza is located a 5-minute tram ride from the centre of Basel and offers free WiFi and a shared terrace with seating area. The rooms all come with a flat-screen TV.

The staff, Kai, was super helpful. He gave us relevant info and answered all our questions and did his best to accommodate our requests. The room was very neat and clean. We had everything we needed: tea, coffee, cups, plates, etc. The bed was comfortable. Kai was very responsive whenever I contacted him via WhatsApp. Considering how expensive Basel is, I feel I got great value for what I paid.

Located in the centre of Basel, Rheinstream Guesthouse Basel provides accommodation with free WiFi in a historic building.

The owner actually waited for us, even though this was a self checking guest house. He brought our suitcase upstairs and fetched some more bottles of water. So nice and thoughtful!

Situated 1.4 km from Zoological Garden, 2.4 km from Jewish Museum of Basel and 2.6 km from Schaulager, Basel-Stadt Gundeldingen Zimmer 401, WC in the hallway, outside the room offers accommodation...

Easy self-service access to the room, plus a kitchen facility (the coffee machine and the few tea options were a nice addition). The washroom was very well cleaned, as well as the room.

Originally a Capuchin monastery dating from the 17th century, Kloster Dornach is only 50 metres from Dornach-Arlesheim Train Station and 12 km from Basel.

The hotel is set n a former monastery, and one can feel the atmosphere of tranquility and peace. Everything was clean. The bed was comfy and the room was quiet. I liked the rural location, but close to public transport, free parking and a restaurant on the site. The staff was nice too. The room overlooked the nice garden. I will return

    Great location, quiet neighborhood but very close to Town and Congress Center with public transportation stops nearby. Excellent helpful & responsive host, New, Clean, Open, Fully Equiped Appartment. Extra welcoming treats and city guides. Perfect for longer stays and can easily host 2-3 people or a small family. Instructions for check-in-out were clear and Damir was very kind and easy to communicate in English. The appartment is as advertised in the pictures and better.

    Nice little apartment for a reasonable price, we had a short but lovely stay. Great location, just outside the old town (a 10-minutes tram ride -which also takes you to the train station - or a 20-minutes very pleasant walk along the river) in a nice, quiet residential area, with plenty of shops and restaurants. The flat is very well equipped and communication with the host was clear, efficient and friendly.

    My stay at B&B Laupenring was truly delightful. The house was cozy and my room was charming, making for a comfortable experience. The place was squeaky clean, and the host was incredibly kind and helpful. They provided excellent suggestions for local dining and things to see. The B&B's location in a pleasant neighborhood is great. There's convenient public transportation very close, so getting to the city center is quick and easy. I wholeheartedly recommend B&B Laupenring for a wonderful stay in Basel.

    Best value for money, great location 5 minutes from train station and 10 minutes from city centre. The apartment was very comfortable and with a nice balcony. Host was excellent with communication whenever it was needed and very kind to arrange picking up the keys despite that I arrived late at night.
