Youth Hostel St. Alban features both bedrooms with private bathrooms and shared dormitory rooms. All have a minimalist design but are still extremely comfortable. Expect lots of wood furniture and large windows. The staff was so caring and they were helpfull about everything. The breakfast was too amazing with the open buffet concept and beds were too comfy. Also they are willing to help even before the staying process from the chat on booking. Definitely worth all of you will going to spend.

Just 300 metres from the SBB Basel railway station (exit Gundeldingen), Hostel by Hyve Basel offers budget accommodation just a 15-minute walk from Basel's city centre.

The cafe offers a good breakfast, barista coffee, and simple meals. A communal kitchen can be used by all guests between 07:00 and 23:00. A selection of restaurants and bars can be found within walking distance of the hostel. I stayed for 3 nights and had a great experience. The hostel was very clean, and the staff were helpful and friendly specially ESRA and Suzanne. You can find everything you need, especially in the kitchen—it was well-equipped and convenient. The facilities, including the shower, were in good condition. The location was also perfect, making it easy to get around. Overall, I really enjoyed my stay and would definitely recommend it!

The Basel Backpack is housed in a renovated historic factory, only 10 minutes from Basel’s main train station. The Basel Mobility Ticket (free public transport) is included in the rates.

Wi-Fi is available free of charge. I recently stayed at Basel Backpack Hostel, and overall, it was a great experience. The hostel is well-located, with easy access to public transport and the city center. The staff was friendly and helpful, making check-in and check-out smooth. The rooms were clean and comfortable, and the shared areas, including the kitchen and lounge, were well-maintained and provided a nice space to relax. One of the highlights was the free Basel Card, which made getting around the city much easier. The Wi-Fi connection was also reliable and fast, which was a big plus. The atmosphere was relatively quiet, which might not suit those looking for a more social experience. However, if you're looking for an affordable and convenient place to stay in Basel, Basel Backpack is a solid choice. Would recommend for budget travelers!
