    The location of the hostel was perfect for exploring the city during Christmas. It was close to the main attractions and public transportation, making it easy to get around. The staff at the hostel were also very friendly and helpful, providing us with recommendations on where to go and what to see. Additionally, the hostel offered free Wi-Fi, which was a great convenience for staying connected during our trip.

    One of the negative aspects of the hostel was the cleanliness. The rooms and bathrooms were not well-maintained and could have been cleaner.

    Despite my initial confusion with choosing a bed, the staff at the hostel quickly resolved the issue and allocated me a comfortable and clean bed. I appreciated the spaciousness of the rooms, as well as the convenience of having charging points and lights at each bed. The location of the hostel was also ideal, making it easy to explore the city. I had a pleasant stay at the Youth Hostel and would recommend it to others.

    The hostel had a stylish architecture, free public transport pass for Basel, and friendly staff.

    Felt so relaxed, no complaint.

    1. Perfect location: Near Rhein and close to most of the museums. 2. The price is perfect since it includes breakfast and also the city ticket (which is normally 8.5 CHF/day). 3. Well designed and extremely clean. This is perhaps the cleanest and spacious hostel (in Europe) that I have ever stayed.

    Except the nightlife of the next room that we would prefer not to share it was fine.

    We had a fantastic stay at this hostel. The location was perfect, being close to the river and within walking distance of the attractions we wanted to visit. The room was spacious and exactly as shown in the photos, with a good shower. The staff were really helpful and attentive, and they even provided us with a free travel pass to explore the city. The breakfast was amazing and included in the price. the hotel facilities were great and we enjoyed the cool architecture of the interior.

    Nothing to fault.

    I recently stayed at this lovely hotel for a short trip to explore the city. The hotel's beautiful architecture and proximity to the Rhine river were definite highlights. I appreciated the free public transport pass provided, making it easy to get around Basel. The free No.50 bus from the airport was also a great perk. The staff at the hostel were incredibly helpful and friendly, adding to the positive experience. The beds were extremely comfortable and came equipped with charging points and lights. The spacious rooms with big windows and lockers were a plus, and the separate sink area was perfect.

    I highly recommend this hotel.

    Very practical

    The room has no windows and for fresh air you need to open the door to a balcony that serves several other rooms
