The hotel is located very close to the old city center (10min walk). I am very happy with its value for money. The standard double-room was large and comfortable. The bathroom was comfortable and clean. The personnel was very kind and was flexible to serve our needs during our stay.

AVLiving City Loft Basel is located in the centre of Basel, 200 metres from Kunstmuseum Basel and 400 metres from the Architectural Museum. Free WiFi is offered.

Featuring a balcony and terrace, the apartment comes with a fully equipped kitchen, a dining area, a seating area with a flat-screen TV, and a bathroom.

The location--a short walk to grocery stores, tram stops, the Rhine, and the famous Basler Art Museum--is wonderful. A city tax, payable upon check-in, rewards guests with an unlimited tram/bus ticket for free travel on the entire Basel public transportation network. The apartment, accessible by elevator, was quiet and spacious, including a balcony with seating, a large bedroom with generous storage space, and a larger sitting room and full-equipped kitchen area. Re-charging outlets for electronic devices next to the nightstands were convenient. The shower/bathtub and sink are in one room, a toilet and tiny sink in another. We especially liked the superior body and shampoo liquid soaps. All the fixtures are very modern. There is a washer and dryer in a hallway room nearby.

    The hotel is very good, but I would guess it's more a work hotel than a family hotel.

    The location is excellent, right on the Rhine river and only 5 minute walk to the historical center. Also since we are travelling with kids our room was equipped with toys, books, kids cuttlery and child seats, potty. I never stayed in a hotel to pay so much attention to families with children.

    We got the room with a double bed and a sofa bed, which is perfect for a family with two children. Our favorite part was a very large shower with side sprinklers and chromotherapy, the kids loved taking a shower there! The position close to the station was very good.
