Lock in a great price for Hotel Spalentor – rated 9.2 by recent guests!

to get started.

Excellent location, trams and buses all close. Bus 30 from Basel SBB, 3 stops, terrific. Room staff were so kind when i was sick one day.

Elizabeth, Australia

Very close to everything within walking distance. The bus stop is just across the road. Easy walking to walking district. The parking for the hotel is just down the road in a parking garage which was secure. If someone has a lot of bags, then recommend unloading first at hotel entrance.

Robert, Germany

Location Free public transportation tickets Games and gym in the hotel

Abdulghani, Saudi Arabia

Wonderful staff. Close to tram so getting around area very easy.

Susan, United States of America

Everything was great, driven by the helpful staff and there attitude that they wanted to make your stay comfortable. Any questions or needs were efficiently and completely answered. Had parking for our bicycles and provided all the information we needed at check in. No need to go back and forwards, and welcome drinks in the foyer were nice too. Breakfast was very good quality. Location wise you are just on the edge of the old town, prefect and easy to get to the airport too.

Fizzyred, Australia

Staff was excellent! Really prone to go the extra mile to give the best stay ever.

Raphael, Switzerland

We arrived by Biking River cruise and it was a fairly easy walk to the hotel. Public bus would have been simpler if we had understood the system. Across street from public transportation and one short bus ride to train station. Staff were helpful and offered us ideas of things to do since we arrived early and room wasn't ready. Basel was a nice city to visit, easy to get around and interesting things to do. It was the most expensive city on our visit. At the hotel's suggestion we floated down the Rhine and had a wonderful time.

Louise, United States of America

Perfect location, clean rooms friendly staff, what more can you want?

Daniel, Luxembourg

The hotel is right by the Spalentor, and in easy walking distance of the city centre, its famous red Rathaus, and the river. The hotel offers bikes for rent, and also the fish bags so that you can swim in the river. The little room with pool table, and table football was a great way to spend an evening. Really lovely staff, and our rooms were excellent.

Paula, United Kingdom

Welcoming reception staff eager to help. The rooms were stylish & beds super comfy! Great room facilities! A personal written message on a postcard greeted us in our room, which was a nice touch. A trendy hotel! City tax enabled free travel on trams & buses which were right on the doorstep! Basel's transport network is amazing! Hotel located on a busy junction but close to the historic "Spalentor" & near some quaint streets.

Gail, Germany

눇Upon arrival, they gave me public transport ticket and I could also take a bike, which i did and enjoyed the ride in the city centre and along the river. Hotel is in perfect location, there is a botanuc garden next to it free for public, big flea market on Saturdays. The rooms are amazingly designed! Best hotel I stayed ever.
