    cheerful lobby
    easy accessibility
    welcoming atmosphere
    limited seating
    relaxation space

    The bright, cheerful lobby with cherry red chairs made me feel instantly welcomed, perfect for seniors. Its easy accessibility to the tram and train stations made exploring Basel both delightful and stress-free for my group.

    A bit more seating for relaxation needed.

    A Perfect Stay in Basel!

    From the moment we arrived, the attentive staff made us feel special, accommodating early check-in and late check-out. The free mini bar was a refreshing bonus! With public transport just steps away, exploring the old town felt effortless. The organic breakfast was delightful. Our dogs were pampered too! Can't wait to return!

    spacious suite
    eco-friendly initiatives
    great breakfast
    lack of pool

    We really enjoyed our spacious GORGEOUS Junior Suite, where the kids had their own space to play while we could relax upstairs. The eco-friendly initiatives were impressive, and the breakfast selection was delightful, providing a great start to our day exploring Basel.

    My kids wished there was a pool for them to splash around in after a long day of sightseeing.

    noise disturbance

    Unfortunately, my stay was marred by several inconveniences. The room had a cramped feel, not quite what I'd expect for a hotel at this level. Additionally, there was persistent noise from the renovation work outside, making it hard to relax during daylight hours. Breakfast options remained limited, and the lack of immediate attention to clearing dirty dishes from our table was a minor annoyance. Overall, it felt more like a decent three-star experience squeezed into a four-star price tag.

    snacks surprise
    poor communication
    unwelcoming appearance

    Complimentary snacks were a delightful surprise.

    I was appalled at the building’s exterior. It completely altered my first impression of the hotel, making the stay feel less inviting.

    convenient location
    excellent breakfast
    lack of comfort
    minor maintenance issues
    group accommodation

    The location is unbeatable, right across from the train station and close to trams. Enjoyed the excellent breakfast with a delightful variety and charming staff. The eco-friendly approach truly resonated with us, especially with the free public transport passes provided. However, the group room we stayed in lacked some comfort and had minor maintenance issues that needed attention, which detracted from the overall experience.

    complimentary basel card
    high-quality breakfast
    friendly staff

    I enjoyed my stay in a SMART Double Room for 2 nights. The complimentary Basel card was a great addition for local transport. The breakfast offered high-quality choices, and the staff was genuinely friendly. The location was ideal, just steps from public transport. 🌿

    The Gaia Hotel boasts a friendly staff and a great breakfast. The free mini bar was a nice touch. Its location near the train station makes it super convenient, though the air conditioning could’ve been better positioned as it got a bit stuffy at times.
