My train arrived late and checking in was absolutely horrible. There was no one at the desk, the house phone didn't work, and because I'd just arrived from Canada I hadnt activated my eSim card yet. I would have had to sleep on the floor if another lady from Germany hadn't helped me!

The stay at Silo Design & Boutique Hostel in Basel was great. The staff were all kind and showed high hospitality & great service. The Hostel is well organized and the breakfast was great with a variety of Swiss cheese. I would like to thank Nicole especially, with her kindness in helping me with Check-in formality and also with providing some ideas/ suggestions about experiencing Switzerland. I would highly recommend anyone to book their stay with Silo. Much appreciated!

It is really a good place to choose in Basel with easy connection to the city and in the room it is really quiet. The hostel is really clean and modern, with lift considering all levels. Breakfast is included and very delicious. Staff are very enthusiastic! We really enjoyed our one day night in Basel!

The accommodation is very good, the staff are brilliant, Nicole is particularly helpful and efficient. The only letdown is location; although described as central the property is on the periphery of the city centre and there are few facilities locally.

Hit kommer jeg gjerne tilbake!
De siste 35 årene har jeg bodd på utallige hostell og hotell rundt om i verden, men aldri har jeg kommet inn i en frokostsal og blitt møtt med et oppriktig og vennlig «God morgen! Har du sovet godt i natt?» Og det mens jeg forsynte meg av rykende ferskt, hjemmebakt brød. Jeg burde ikke bli overrasket, for allerede ved ankomsten ble jeg hjertelig tatt imot av to blide, imøtekommende ansatte som raskt hjalp meg med å finne ut hvordan jeg skulle få mest mulig ut av mine 18 timer i Basel. Jeg kom rett fra tre kokende varme dager i Roma og lengtet etter å få bade, lurte på om det var mulig å svømme i Rhinen, og dermed ble jeg utstyrt med en vanntett sekk til klær, sko og mobil og forklart hvor i elva jeg skulle starte og hvor jeg måtte avslutte. Slik fikk jeg et av denne interrailturens absolutte høydepunkt! Å flyte nedover Rhinen på denne måten, sammen med hundrevis av andre mennesker, omgitt av Basels vakre arkitektur, var helt fantastisk. Og selvsagt var rommet rent og ryddig, i likhet med alle hostellets fasciliteter, og senga var veldig komfortabel. Som gjest fikk jeg også et Basel card som ga meg gratis buss og trikk. Men viktigst: De ansatte! De fikk meg til å føle meg hjemme og velkommen. Og det er slikt som gjør at jeg gjerne kommer tilbake.

A comfy, clean and trendy industrial-style hostel with very spacious rooms. Not that central, but near the Bad station, and bus 30 takes you to the main railway station. Bed price included the Basel Card with free public transport. Nice little breakfast, too.
