Pocket Guide: 3 Stars Hotels in Basel

Visit Switzerland’s Cool Capital of Culture

With a wide selection of three-star hotels, Basel is a small city with a big list of reasons to visit – from its reputation as Switzerland’s cultural capital to its array of world-class architecture. It’s also one of the country’s hotspots for international sports and top-flight conferences and exhibitions. Basel’s location on the River Rhine, right on the border between Switzerland, Germany and France, makes it a cosmopolitan destination where you can enjoy a great mix of food, entertainment and attractions.

Where to Stay in Basel

When it comes to choosing your Basel three-star hotel, you’ll find plenty of options to suit you whether you’re travelling for business, with the family or on a romantic getaway. Basel’s old town is one of the best-preserved Medieval areas in Europe, and there are several historic hotels perfect for easy access to Basel’s must-see sights, including the Market Square, the highly decorated 16th-century red Town Hall, Basel Cathedral and the beautiful Botanical Gardens. This side of the Rhine – known as Grossbasel – is also the best place to book your three-star hotel to be close to boutique shopping and the pick of Basel’s restaurants and nightlife. Across the river in Kleinbasel, you’ll find a good range of accommodation, including popular business hotels close to the Messe Basel exhibition and conference centre.

Seek out Special Basel Experiences

The Rhine winds its way through Basel, providing a lovely setting for your visit and no matter where your Basel hotel is located, it’s worth taking a day cruise or night-time trip along the river to appreciate the city from a different perspective. Relaxation and wellbeing are a big part of life in Basel, and you can get a taste of a favourite Swiss pastime at one of the sauna and water parks within easy reach of the city. Take a look at what’s on offer at Laguna Badeland, Sole Uno and Aquabasilea and take your choice of sauna experiences and beauty treatments to help you truly unwind. What could be better?
