Cleanliness, location superb. Problem getting a taxi to hotel, which is in a pedestrian zone. However, buses and teams are free and go just about everywhere with very little wait time. No coffee maker in room. No refrigerator in room, but room spacious and nicely decorated.

We had a great experience at Motel One Basel. Our room was clean and comfortable, quiet and cosy. The bar area downstairs was welcoming and the staff excellent. So convenient for the Christmas Markets and exploring the beautiful city of Basel.

Would definitely stay here again! The hotel is new and in a prime location to shopping and dining. Our room overlooked one of the Christmas Markets, you stepped out the front door and you were there, yet in our room you couldn’t hear any outside noise! The bar and lounge area was excellent and well attended!

One night stay before catching a river cruise. The hotel was relatively close to the dock. The Christmas market was literally right outside the door. Great location for what we wanted. The staff was friendly and helpful.
