Nice, big room in a very cool building. Only minus was the heat in the room (but very warm outside). Excellet service at breakfast and we where for example able to borrow a floating bag.

Great place

Quiet, clean, spacious - brilliant stay. Stayed in female four bed dorm in this interestingly designed hostel. The only comment I’d have is that the dorm rooms are so big the beds could probably be individually set out, rather than stacked as bunks. To save the squeaking of top bunks and steps etc.

It is really a good place to choose in Basel with easy connection to the city and in the room it is really quiet. The hostel is really clean and modern, with lift considering all levels. Breakfast is included and very delicious. Staff are very enthusiastic! We really enjoyed our one day night in Basel!

The accommodation is very good, the staff are brilliant, Nicole is particularly helpful and efficient. The only letdown is location; although described as central the property is on the periphery of the city centre and there are few facilities locally.

Good value

A comfy, clean and trendy industrial-style hostel with very spacious rooms. Not that central, but near the Bad station, and bus 30 takes you to the main railway station. Bed price included the Basel Card with free public transport. Nice little breakfast, too.
