The Sorell Hotel Merian is located right on the river Rhine, in the heart of Basel, offering you charming rooms with a Nespresso coffee machine.

This was one of our favourite hotels to go to with our children while we were in Europe for 3 weeks. Wish we stayed here longer. The room had a great view just to the side of the river and they have everything you need while traveling with 2 young children! Our kids loved the toys they had set up for them. The breakfast was delicious with lots of options!!

The Hotel Victoria offers traditional hospitality and modern hotel comforts in the center of Basel next to the main train station (SBB).

The location of the hotel is great. It is next to the train station and the bus station (but you do need to make sure you use the right exit of the train station. The google map didn't guide me to the right exit and I was trying to look for the hotel pulling my luggage around for 15 min only to find that it is just next to the train station if another exit is used). The location is fantastic with bus station next to it too. Nevertheless, it was still very quiet. The room was very clean, comfortable and spacious. There was free public transportation too that came with the stay. I would definitely recommend the hotel.

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 the outskirts, has a well-preserved Roman theater, 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 colorful 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 accommodations on Booking.com range 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 catch the 4 am start, though!
