Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

    Basel Youth Hostel (Jugendherberge Basel) is a modern conversion of what was originally a factory building dating from 1850s. It's close to the Rhein, and about 15 min on foot from the Kunstmuseum tram stop (and the Altstadt), or 20 min on foot from the main railway station (Bahnhof Basel SBB). Expect the standard hostel experience for the price, but I must add that the included buffet breakfast was excellent. Remember to factor this in if comparing hostel prices in Basel :-).

    The hostel and its facilities are very well described. Very very close to the Banhof. I stayed in an 6-bed dormitory,: beds are large and the mattress was comfortable. Lockers are big enough to leave all your stuff, luggage included. One real towel is provided for free. In the bathrooms you can also find real hairdriers (not a silly thing especially if you are long-haired woman). The kitchen is well equipped and clean.
