Rooms keep it simple, but the lobby gets a li’l crazier with eclectic art and furnishings for a whimsical vibe.

Good news for pet people: you can bring yours along.

Plush accents raise the bar in classic guestrooms.

Smack-dab in the Parc des Collines business district.

Near 3 different borders, an ideal home base for racking up multiple passport stamps (not really, since you just kinda drive through, but still).

Lounge-y bar doubles as a stellar go-to for noshin’ – with all sorts of eats, ranging from salads to tasty pizza(!).

Couldn’t-be-better location right at the entrance to the wine(!) route(!). Vosges mountains are also right(!) there(!) or pretty close anyway.

Rooms are simple, but far from spartan – with flat-screen TV, free WiFi and a courtesy tray with coffee/tea fixings.

Within daytripping distance of the Alsace Wine Route – defo be sure to tour a few of the enchanting small towns on the way.

Stylish rooms straight out of a design mag, with aircon, flat-screens, free WiFi and rain showers.

Hotel, theatre, art museum, restaurant, bar, coffee lounge and wine cellar in one (or rather two — it’s made up of 2 historical 18th-century townhouses).

Home to our two favorite Bs: breakfast and buffet.

Free WiFi: you gotta have it, so they bring it.

Ideally situated just 15 minutes from Basel's EuroAirport, with nearby tram to take you to the city centre.

Dreamy downtown location, all the major sites and public transportation are within walking distance.

Crisp, minimalist style with a warm, personal touch. (Winner of Switzerland’s Most Welcoming Hotel.)

Ideal springboard for all things Basel, whether you're visiting for work or just for its cultural attractions (museums! art! food!).
