Top Basel Hotel Reviews

Hotel Victoria

Hotel Victoria

10/10 Excellent
"I would 10/10 stay at this hotel again! The included breakfast was amazing with the most polite staff! The front desk people were also very knowledgeable provided my check in promptly. The cleaning staff was incredible refilling my rooms nespresso shots and water daily! The only thing was how small the gym is, only one treadmill and dumbbells to 9kg with minimal room to exercise. So if you don’t care much about a gym then this place is incredible! Very easy access to the Basel SBB and several busses and trams."
