“Superb”

I had a great stay at Youth Hostel Basel! The staff at the reception were incredibly helpful and welcoming, which made the experience even better. I really appreciated the free public transport vouchers—it made getting around the city super convenient. The hostel also offers a luggage deposit facility and complimentary tea and coffee, which were thoughtful touches. The location is quite accessible too, with public transport just an 8–10 minute walk away. Overall, a comfortable and well-equipped place to stay in Basel!

Clean and big space, big rooms, great showers, not to crowded in the mornings. Good food. Friendly staff. Big, specious kitchen and working/chill area. Good location, close to rive and city centre. Good internet.

⭐ 5/5 – An Amazing Stay at Basel Youth Hostel I didn’t expect to be this impressed by a hostel, but Basel Youth Hostel really delivered. From the moment I arrived, I noticed how clean, spacious, and well-maintained everything was—it instantly felt comfortable. What truly stood out was the thick walls—finally, a hostel where you don’t hear everything through paper-thin dividers! It made a huge difference in sleep quality after a long journey. And the floor heating? A game-changer. That little touch made the space feel extra cozy, especially on colder days. Everything about my stay felt smooth and effortless, allowing me to just focus on enjoying Basel. If you’re looking for a place where you can rest properly, feel at ease, and trust that everything is well taken care of, this is it. Highly recommend!

It is in a peaceful and calm area, but close to different stops of public transport, so you can get anywhere easily. The staff was very kind and helpful.

“Excellent for a family stopover with great atmosphere and superb breakfast.”

The property itself was beautiful, a stone’s throw from the Rhine and next to a tributary. The architecture has been retained to give the building character.

A different concept by the river. The staff is very polite. I think the breakfast was quite good for Switzerland. It is very easy to get to from the train station by tram.
