I went to Zurich for business purpose. Because all other business hotels were full or had rooms for unreasonable price, I decided to book a room into this small hotel for 5 nights. It has been a pleasure to stay here. Rooms hare small but clean and what I liked the most is a quiet hotel. It is in the... more

So, stayed here for one night whilst on a road trip through Europe this month. Zurich is expensive, and out of the whole trip this was the highest cost with the least in return but lets be sure........this was a good hotel in a central location that delivered all we wanted (ok, so no air con)....but nearly. Rooms were very... more

Just stayed in the Basilea for a quick overnight in Zurich. I was only in for one night and didn't take any meals, so take this review for what it's worth. My overall impression was that this was a perfectly efficient, if small, no-frills hotel in a very good location at an excellent price point. The hotel's entrance is on... more

In an expensive city like Zurich, Hotel Basilea was a welcome find. It is simple, modern and adequate. I spent around $145USD per night and was quite pleased. Beds were comfortable, sheets soft and immaculate. Decor was Ikea-esque. Front desk staff was friendly. Location was ideal: I walked to the hotel in less than 10 minutes from the main train... more

My room was small, clean and basic. Not a problem for a one night business stop over but not a place I would take my wife. One of my colleagues swapped rooms after being given an unclean room. Breakfast was minimal but adequate. Was warned that good rooms in Zurich were hard to find at normal prices £100 - £200... more

I stayed in the Basilea during the middle of June 2009, while on an overnight business trip. The hotel is in easy walking distance (10 min) from the main Zurich HB railway station and is located about two streets parallel to the river, within the "old town" and bar area. My room was a single room and very small, albeit... more

My husband and I stayed 2 nights from Friday to Sunday in room 203 in September. The room was quite small so our bed was in an unusual position - with one side to the wall rather than the head to the wall - which meant one person had to climb either over the other person or climb out via... more

We stayed at the Hotel Basilea for one night after checking out early from the party hotel Zic Zac Rock Hotel. The hotel Basilea has a convenient location, just a few minutes walk from the train station. The hotel seems to have been recently decorated, and is fresh and clean. The room was quite spacious, the beds were comfortable and... more

The hotel is conveniently located nearby the train station (10 mn by walk), and close to restaurants and bars. Except that, I don't see much advantages to this hotel. There is no air conditioning and it get really hot in the rooms even though the temperatures outside were not so high. If you open the window to get some fresh... more
