Bechtersbohl Holidays

Basel is a small city by all means with great transportation options. The transfer from the airport was free thanks to the Baselcard you will be receiving upon check-in. You can show your reservation on the way if asked. Hotel is right next to the train station and one of the main transport hubs. And all transportation is for free thanks to tourism tax. The hotel; the reception, the food, the restaurant, the location — everything was top notch!

Excellent hotel and location! Close to the old town and next to the train station! Highly recommend!

The property itself is in a great location, directly opposite Cadorna station so great if you have an early flight. The room was very spacious, decor was lovely and it was very clean. We were disappointed that the building was covered in scaffolding, so we didn't get any natural light in the apartment for the 2 nights of our stay and also couldn't make the most of the balcony. I appreciate that it isn't the hosts fault but it would have been nice to be informed. Communication wasn't the best. The check in was 2pm but we were informed when we entered the property that this has to be delayed as the shower was broken. When we eventually got into the room, the shower was working but we didn't have any hot water for the duration of our stay, which was unfortunate given the hear in Milan during our stay, we couldn't get a proper shower as the water was just too cold.

The hotel is located in Altstadt of Basel on a quite street. It's 15 min by walk from Basel SBB or 2 stops away by street car. Museums, cafes restaurants, groceries, and other shops are short walk away from the hotel. The staff is friendly and professional. Overall, I'm satisfied.
