Fantastic location, hotel and staff
Fantastic experience. The hotel’s location is right on the centre of the city, the rooms are squeaky clean and comfortable. Love the pillow choices! The staff are ver professional and friendly. Their card key system was down for one day and I was very impressed by the way the team handled the inconvenience. Can definitely recommend!

Fantastic!
Fantastic hotel, great location, super professional and friendly staff. The rooms are reasonable sized, ultraclean, with comfy beds and choice of pillows. The only thing I was missing was a small fridge to keep the water cold.

The first thing you encounter when you walk in the door is a bar, the check-in desk is behind that. The view is awful, the shower is not enclosed so water goes everywhere. However, the room is spotless and in mint condition. There is air conditioning and a breakfast buffet is available. They provide free WiFi and are located within walking distance of many things.

In the heart of the Old City
The room was kind of small and shabby but the location and the service were absolutely excellent. The breakfast buffet was top notch.

Airport hotel with cool vibe!
Love the hotel. Super cool vibe! Small but very fun rooms! The most comfortable bed and pillows I’ve ever had in a hotel. This was our second stay. Nice bar with good food and comfortable sitting areas. Nice to be able to walk to the Amsterdam airport.

One step more....
The hotel was great, the staff even better. Our only negative was that we got a disabled room with a wet bathroom that we didn't need and it was impossible to shower without a flood. Oh - tea and coffee in the room would be a nice touch too. Location - excellent

Lovely hotel in central Basel
We had a lovely stay at the MotelOne. The location is perfect, the staff are lovely and it wasn't too expensive considering how much things generally cost in Basel. Also one of the most comfortable hotel beds I've ever slept in. Highly recommended.
