Top Naturhistorisches Museum Hotel Reviews

Hotel Spalentor

10/10 Excellent

"Hotel Spalentor was a wonderful property. It is perfectly located to get anywhere in the old city easily. There are buses and trams right across the street if you want to travel farther. The staff suggested good restaurants and were happy to call and make reservations for us. Free WIFI, clean rooms, and great facilities."

GAIA Hotel Basel - the sustainable hotel

10/10 Excellent

"We recently spent 9 days traveling through The Netherlands, France and Switzerland and stayed in 4 hotels. The Gaia was the best by far and if we ever return to Basel we would absolutely choose The Gaia again. I am sorry that I cannot remember the name of the man who seemed to always be at the front desk when we needed something. He was so kind, professional and helpful. He provided excellent recommendations for restaurants, offered suggestions for what to do in the city, checked for our train platform when we left, and just went above and beyond without being intrusive. The property was outstanding. We had a room with a king bed and sitting area which was spotless, beautiful, comfortable, cool and quiet. Breakfast was delicious and staff delivered coffee orders to the table. The location is right across from the train station which we preferred for easy access to trains and turned out to be very convenient for walking the old city as well. Well done!"

Krafft Basel

10/10 Excellent

"Feels like a small independent hotel but that’s a good thing. Rooms and beds are comfortable. It can be a bit noisy if you need the windows open which you might as there’s no AC. Staff are all lovely and the food is great"

"Staff was very pleasant and the hotel had everything you would need as a basic amenity hotel. I’d stay here again for work. I love how close it is to the tram so you can easily get around."

Steinenschanze Charming City & Garden Hotel

10/10 Excellent

Limehome Basel Town Hall

8/10 Good

"Location was walkable to and from train station. We didn't spend much time in the area, was a stop over for us, but looked like the property was in a good location for access to city sights and restaurant options. Check in and out were easy using the instructions provided by the host."

Riverside Hotel Merian - opening 2026

8/10 Good

"I have stayed here previously when it was self check in. Now they have 24 hour service. I found check in and luggage storage very easy as I was early. And then I had a very pleasant room upgrade with a spectacular view of river. A nice touch was the selection of juice and pop in the fridge. And having a fan in the room was excellent. Very happy to stay and come back"
