Comfortable room with convenient location
Overall, we had a nice experience at Balade Hotel. The room was nice, big and clean, and it was easy to reach the city center by foot. The only issue we had was with our GPS, we couldn't reach the location because there were some closed streets and one-way streets. The employee that helped us at the phone was in Zurich, so she couldn't really help us. Moreover, it took a while to create the key-card and it cost 10 minutes of international call 😭 when we solved these issues, our stay was definitely nice.

The hotel is close to the river and public transport. The twin bedded room was a good size and well equipped. The cable TV had many channels including several UK ones. I liked having a kettle and fridge. The view from the room was over the internal yard,and was unattractive but it was quiet.

We had a wonderful stay and would especially like to express our gratitude to Patrick for his outstanding, helpful service in helping us find a lost cellphone in our room. We thought it was lost forever and with his experience we were overjoyed that he found it behind a table. The entire desk staff is very friendly and could answer all my our questions. We were also able to make arrangements to check in since we arrived after 11:00 pm and that was very much appreciated. We would and will recommend your hotel to others traveling to this area. Thank you SO much for making our stay wonderful. Mike & Gloria Fluet

The location was good for the University of Basel and other sights. However, it was very noisy in the evenings. The hotel was next door to the red light district which I wasn’t aware of but that wasn’t a problem.

Large and clean.
Booked a room for three and got a great apartment with a full size kitchen. It was large and fairly modern. It was an 8 minute walk to the old town area- good location as long as you keep your bedroom window closed so you don’t hear the all night night chatter across the street where a few prostitutes appear to work. The neighborhood did seem fairly safe and clean for families though.
