The front desk staff were very helpful, and the breakfast was good. If you're traveling with heavy luggage, it's recommended to ask for a room with elevator access. However, there's room for improvement regarding room cleanliness (photos enclosed). ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/9f9e362b-fbfd-459a-95d8-e80b8f16c5f2-1755771569914.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/fd4aab3b-7df2-464b-9d2a-ec19cb3d9227-1755771569811.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/6930f928-09e9-4f9c-8afb-e6806c6cf0d4-1755771569665.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/e204bf41-245f-47a7-84b3-a452a1654dc3-1755771569898.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Anantha narayana Stayed 2 nights in Aug 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### E 28 Apr 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Basel Weekend Hotel extremely convenient for the main Swiss railway station.

Very good location. ##### Mihaela Stayed 1 night in Dec 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Michael 22 Aug 2025 Liked: Amenities The City Inn offers a real bargain in Basel, so long as you like an architectural puzzle. A single building has been subdivided into one expensive hotel and one mid-price hotel, and all the rooms and passageways in between the two that didn't quite make sense have been called the City Inn. You check in at the posh hotel and have a fine breakfast in a panoramic 8th floor room in the mid-price hotel, and somewhere in between you wander various corridors and bits of staircase looking for your room. It will be odd when you find it, but comfortable, and very reasonably priced. ##### Michael Stayed 2 nights in Aug 2025 ### 6/10 Okay #### Hayley 9 Sept 2025 I was pretty disappointed in my room Not like the photos and a bit jaded - needs a bit of a freshen up/painting etc. Other rooms looked much nicer but based on mine, I wouldn’t recommend. Location is ok but a bit of a walk to anything ‘nice’, convenient for bus to airport/train connections. ##### Hayley Stayed 3 nights in Jun 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Barbara 10 Apr 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Perfect location near railway station and trams.

The room is pop-modern, simple but clean and highly functional layout, with a comfortable pillow and duvet and thoughtful amenities that make you feel well looked after without excess. The staff are very professional and friendly, assisting with check-in, and self-checkout is available via the email notification you receive. I’d be very happy to book again. ##### machiko Stayed 1 night in Jul 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Chris 9 Jun 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities Very polite staff..great location for quick overnight. ##### Chris Stayed 1 night in Jun 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Gurcharn 20 May 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Very close to the train station and public transportation. Pillows were too soft and need to be replaced to get good night sleep. ##### Gurcharn Stayed 1 night in May 2025 ### 4/10 Poor #### Anne 14 Jul 2025 It was clean and convenient to the train station. I knew that it was a walk up, but three flights of 16 steps each with a suitcase is too much. There was a very noisy rom AC and opening the tiny window just let in more noise from the street. ##### Anne Stayed 1 night in Jul 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Myrna 19 Jan 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Staff was great ##### Myrna Stayed 1 night in Jan 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller 29 Dec 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Xmas markets Perfect location for city break ##### Verified traveller Stayed 2 nights in Dec 2024 ### 4/10 Poor #### Calvin 11 Jul 2025 Liked: Staff & service Disliked: Property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Small overpriced room. Extrememly tiny room even for European standards. Window AC was old and in terrible condition.
