Christmas Market right next door
Perfect location to visit Christmas markets. One is literally right outside the hotel front door. What i didn't like? The bed had two twin- sized duvets. I hate duvets and the twin size made it impractical to really sleep together. Tha AC wasn't working and the room was too warm.

Perfect Hotel for Basel
Motel one was a perfect location for our three day visit. The proximity to Christmas markets was our main choice with a young baby. Tram station outside hotel and an ideal location to explore the old town. The hotel has a very welcoming warm lobby area perfect when returning from walking in the winter chill. I would definitely be looking at Motel One’s other locations when on future holidays.

Very nice modern hotel in a great location in old town. Couldn’t be better for finding restaurants museums shopping etc. Breakfast was very good and nice large lobby to breakfast and relax in. Staff were very pleasant and helpful. Room decent size for Europe. Could have used 2nd chair in room

Christmas
Great room, great location, great service. Only downgrade was that they wouldn’t allow us to eat in the lobby. We had to take food to our room, which was more weird than inconvenience. I understand them wanting to upsell their own food, but it’s common area to the hotel, so it really cheapened an otherwise good stay.

The hotel was in an excellent location to explore Basel and access public transport. If you are attending the conference centre but want to stay centrally, the tram stop is less than a minute's walk with frequent direct trams. The staff were lovely and the room was very clean and comfortable. I would definitely stay here again.

Clean and prime location
Overall a very clean and prime located property. Stylish decor and friendly staff. Modest breakfast. Only thing I didn’t like is that my room windows were opening towards an apartment building. There was only a darkening curtain. Which means either be visible to everyone or no view at all.

Great location but not easy to drive to as there are a lot of pedestrian only streets near the hotel. Parking is at the art museum garage a few minutes away. About 30 CHF per day. Hotel was great and modern with a bar in the lobby. Staff was nice.

Location, Location, Location
Tram stop right outside, cafe below, coop market around the corner, bars and restaurants across the street, 2 blocks from the cathedral, extensive shopping within 1 block, just a great location. Stayed her a night before the river cruise and it was an excursion in itself. Noon check out so we had the morning to explore, then took the tram down to the dock - careful, be sure you have the right embankment dock for your particular boat…tram also took us straight from train to hotel. It would be good for Motel One to list easily which Tram to take from station to stopping point, etc., send in a pre arrival email, because it was SO easy and convenient. Not easy with big luggage to get in the doors up the stairs and across the cobblestone courtyard so be aware. Room was small but well equipped, clean, comfy and quiet. Everything is pre pay so no hassle on the way out with bills. Bartender 24 hours/day and attentive. Meeting space with friends on the first floor meant quiet upstairs for the rooms. Just a fantastic pre our post cruise hotel - highly recommend.

This place almost gets a 10 out of 10. The staff are great, , I loved our room, the location is good. The shower floor is too level so water goes under the shower door and gets the area in front of the shower wet. They need to leave more towels to deal with that. What I hated are the pillows- rock hard bricks, and no softer options. And I couldn’t use a rolled up towel for a pillow because all the towels were wet from the shower! But I would still come back- just check the pillow and towel situation before it’s late at night!
