It’s so close to the central station, there’s a lot of dining options in the area, and there’s also a tram that pass by. Very accessible to a lot of places.

Ideally situated (for us at least) by the main station but still within walking distance to the main town. Staff were very friendly (and very patient in putting up with my attempt to try German!). First time in an Ibis and would definitely try one again based on our experience in Basel. No kettle in the room which was a shame but seemed to be the standard in Switzerland based on our other hotel stays!

Nice place, some room for improvement
Very nice and clean place. Unfortunately, the pillows were very uncomfortable for me and the hotel didn’t have other types.
Also, the breakfast could have a bit more variety to chose from.

The staff was eager to help with directions to things we wanted to get to.
Location was very close to trams to get to anywhere. The train station and bus station were very close.
Don't plan on doing your laundry in this city. There is only one laundromat and we couldn't get it to work, nor was there anyone to ask.
This is a great city to visit. The river and the things around it were amazing. We would definitely stay at this hotel again.

Good services but average facilities
It was not so good in comparison to ibis in other counties or location.
There was no complementary water bottle or even coffee maker.
I was very very surprised.

One night in Basel
Very convenient hotel location to the train station. Just about a five minute walk. Room was very basic and snug. There was no safe, fridge, or tea/coffee for the room. Only two towels were provided in the bathroom.
