Place Pury

The value for these modern rooms is excellent in this hybrid hotel/serviced apartments/co-working space. Smart, well-designed rooms for individual travelers who don't need the extra frills and services of a hotel and feel comfortable with a location that's a bit outside of the main city center. No issue with public transportation and the Basel Card. To enter, you are dependent on mobile data/WhatsApp to receive the door codes and reception communication has limited hours, so if there are any issues or follow-up questions, you will have to wait (about 3 hours for a response). I'd skip the continental breakfast, which was pretty underwhelming for 22 extra francs per person and didn't match the photo on the website. There were a couple glitches/typos on some communications, which required a couple extra e-mails, but overall, if I come to Basel for 2-3+ days, then I would happily stay here again.

Simple, modern. Will stay here next time.

It is wonderful! On the Rhine! The rooms are beautiful and the restaurant is outstanding! I had a wonderful plate of Wiener schnitzel and my wife and daughter had fish and loved it. The waiter who served us, originally from Croatia spoke excellent German and what not only a good waiter, he was very funny too. I highly recommend the Waldhaus!
