Top Marktplatz Hotel Reviews

Hotel Märthof Basel

8/10 Good

"Desk staff were friendly but could not help with things to do such as tours, they had no information. Wait staff not so helpful Breakfast was good but expensive. Overall O. K. Unfortunately the construction outside was not their problem"

Central City Hotel Rochat

10/10 Excellent

"Interesting building and rooms. Convenient location. Breakfast buffet better than most."

Radisson Blu Hotel, Basel

10/10 Excellent

"Lovely room that we got to check in early at . I rolled my ankle and the bar gave me a nice bag of ice ."

Boutique & Design Hotel Volkshaus Basel

10/10 Excellent

"Excellent Hotel Stay."

Hotel D - Basel - Boutique Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Staff"

Essential by Dorint Basel City

10/10 Excellent

"all rooms don't have AC so you have to be careful. I had to upgrade my room because no AC do not fit me ;) They should say so when we book. We should have an option."

Limehome Basel Town Hall

10/10 Excellent

"The room size was very decent for two and the cleanliness was spot on. As a solo traveller, I honestly lived very comfortably in it. The air conditioning was good for me even under the heatwave. But if you are someone who needs a fridge-cold room so you can put a heavy duvet on, then maybe it's too warm for you. The location was PERFECT! It's close to everything - close to the big shopping street, close to a number of small indie shops, close to nice bakeries and cafes. There was a laundry room on the top floor, but I've never tried it. Overall, I had a pleasant stay."

Motel One Basel

8/10 Good

"The hotel was very conveniently located on the square in the middle of the old part of town. We were on the 4th floor and had our own deck, which was really nice at night. The staff were very helpful and nice! While we were there, Europe was having a heat wave, and the AC never got the room very cool. The bed was clean and nice, but the mattress was very hard, as were the pillows. So while it was clean, in a great location, and with friendly staff, we did not get much sleep while there! The breakfast was expensive, especially if you only wanted a croissant and coffee. It was an all you can eat buffet with cheese, meat, yogurt, etc, so only worth it if you eat a lot at breakfast. If you like firm mattresses and pillows, it would be 5 stars!"

Krafft Basel

10/10 Excellent

"Very great. Very nice staff"
