Cheap Hotels in Basel
Cheap hotels are pretty few and far between in Basel, with just a couple of truly budget hotels within easy reach of the main sights and attractions. To the east of the city centre around Basel SBB, the main railway station, there’s a hostel and some well-known cheaper hotel names, plus some affordable apartments slightly further out.
Free Public Transport for Basel Tourists
Getting around a city can sometimes be a significant expense, but when you check in to your Basel hotel, you’ll receive a Mobility Ticket giving you free use of public transport in Basel and the surrounding areas for the whole duration of your stay. The offer covers officially registered accommodation, is valid for up to a maximum of 30 days and also includes getting to your hotel from the EuroAirport or one of Basel’s railway stations when you first arrive. Such a great scheme means that no matter where your one-star Basel hotel is situated, you’ll be able to hop on the tram, train or bus and see all the sights of the city. What’s more, the public-transport system is known for its punctuality, short waiting times and modernity, which all help to make your visit even more enjoyable.
Exploring Basel on a Budget
To get the lowdown on all the free and low-cost things to do in Basel, head for one of Basel’s tourist information centres, open daily at Barfüsserplatz in the old town or the main railway station, Basel SBB. If culture’s your thing, it’s well worth buying a BaselCard, which covers one, two or three days and gives you half-price entry into the city’s many excellent museums. It also includes a free city tour, free ferry trip and free entry to the popular Basel Zoo. The compact city centre is easy to walk around and there is plenty to do without emptying your pocket: a riverside walk, a wander through the narrow streets of the old town or a stroll in one of the city’s parks – or even the Botanical Gardens –all great ways to enjoy the city free of charge.Basel Hotel ReviewsExpedia verified reviews
