    small bathroom

    The room was spacious and super clean, with a comfy bed that made it easy to get a good night's sleep. Soundproofing was on point, so it was nice and quiet despite being in a central area. The bathroom was modern, though a bit small. Overall, I felt it had everything I needed for a short stay.

    I had a good stay at Motel One in Basel. The central location allowed easy access to nearby attractions, adding enjoyment to my art explorations. Clean, stylish room offered comfort. Minor inconvenience with a kettle absence, but the overall charm made up for it. I loved my experience!

    The location was exceptional, right in the heart of the Christmas market, making our stay vibrant and lively. The friendly staff lent us a Swiss adaptor that was a lifesaver during our visit.

    Ideal Base for Exploring Basel

    As a solo traveler for one night, I appreciated the clean, stylish room which had everything I needed. The staff went above and beyond, preparing an early breakfast so I could catch my train. A tip, take tram 8 or 11 for easy access to the train station!

    We loved the location—right in the heart of Basel! It was perfect for exploring the nearby museums, shopping, and catching trams to other attractions. My son especially enjoyed the friendly atmosphere and the contemporary design of the hotel, making it a comfortable stay.

    In my wife’s opinion, a kids’ menu or snack options would be great for families with children.
