Everything. From the location of the hotel to the really really nice staff, to the modern design of the hotel. It was so easy to get from one place to another because the trams all stopped a few steps away from our hotel. We had a problem with booking.com tbh, because they cancelled our booking while I was mid flight. I opened my phone to find out that our booking had been cancelled. I had to call the hotel to ensure that our booking was still secure because really, we had no where else to stay. I was so appreciative that they held on to our booking because they too were surprised about the sudden cancellation. The staff assisted us the entire time and were so gracious and pleasant to coordinate with. From this, to the check in, to the check out..everything was perfect. I highly highly recommend this hotel to anyone who wants a pleasant stay in Basel.

It felt very luxurious to stay at Nomad Hotel. All details in the room, bathroom and in the sauna/gym room made me feel very spoiled. The soap, shampoo and lotion smelled so good that it made me smile. The location was also excellent to me. Close to my job and also just between the train station and the river. A bonus was also the breakfast that usually is a non memorable experience but this was with fresh fruit and a nice variety of healthy food. I would love to come back.

FAQs about hotels in Basel

Switzerland Through the Ages

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 its outskirts houses a well-preserved Roman theatre, 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 colourful 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 accommodation on Booking.com ranges 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 see it start though - 4am!

    We stayed in Basel for a week, using it as a transit point for traveling to other cities in the area: Colmar, Luzerne, and Freiburg. Basel itself has easily enough to see for three full days: interesting museums, beautiful architecture, cathedrals, dining, etc. If you stay for more than a day you get a Basil Pass which allows you to use public transit for free. The public transit works like a clock, although it might be a bit difficult at first to figure out what goes where.

    Basel has a mix of old buildings, many museums (~40), lots of interesting streets and alleyways as well as a full range of good quality shops and restaurants. Very enjoyable to walk along the tree lined paths along the Rhine too, where you can find numerous drink stalls and openings to restaurants. Eating out is not cheap, but quality if usually good.

    We were there for the Women's Euros and it was amazing to see how the city embraced the tournament! We visited the beautiful Basel Town Hall, the Kunst Museum Basel (definitely recommend), the Natural History Museum, and St-Jakob Park. We took a day trip to Lucerne as well, which was great.

    The old city has plenty to see and do and with the visitor’s tram pass you can also take a ride out into the countryside. I found some great places to eat- tit-bits by the back of the railway station is good value and a choice of GF options. A wealth of museums made the whole stay a pleasure, Art Basel an Annual event and Beyeler in Riehen, and Kunstmuseum by Wettsteinbruecke both worth a mention.

    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!!

    Garage underneath the hotel was very useful. We loved the breakfast with many choices. Just like other places in Switzerland, Basel is an expensive city. So the price of this hotel was a real value for money. We'll choose this hotel again if we'll be back in Basel.
