The room and bed were great. The staff was very accomodating by allowing us to leave our luggage while we toured the old town before boarding our cruise ship. The location was right next to old town with a convenience store just across the street. Highly recommend.

great location. great room. My luggage was lost by the airline and everyone at the hotel was a help in getting my bag retrieved and delivered just 5 minutes before our scheduled departure.

Motel One Basel was conveniently and centrally located. The hotel is next to Barfusserplatz, so check if there are any events in the plaza if you are concerned about noise and crowds. Staff were friendly and attentive. Breakfast was good and nice to have available. Basel hotels offer the "Basel card" which provides free local trams/bus travel and discounts on museums and other attractions. I appreciated the hotel bar which had a nice selection of gins. I would stay here again.

The location is in the heart of Basel. I requested and stayed on the floor with the balcony overlooking Barfusser Platz and recommend that. If you are traveling with a car and luggage, parking is not at the hotel. Breakfast is good with everything except, eggs/ bacon. The rooms are large and clean but have no other amenities like a fridge (accessible at front desk), safe...
