Found myself booked into this place, and realised I needed a upgrade to a larger room, and was offered a non-smoking one that stank of smoke. Finally given a double room in the renovated section (differentiated by smart wooden doors) on the first floor. Room was ultra modern but still small and not somewhere you'd like to while away an...

Hotel is situated close to Basel Fair and city center, walking distance, but there are also trams and busses. Rooms are small, beds are not so confortable. Quailty of sleeping is not good. Rooms are looking over bussy streat, so forget about oppening window or balcony use. Rooms from 3rd to 5th floor do not have WiFI, there is a... More

I stayed in Hotel for 2 days on a business trip. The staff was nice, but I was surprised the size of my room. I was on the top floor and the room reminded me of a prison cell, with a small compact bed and a tiny table in the corner with the TV on it. There was a toilet,... More

First thing I noticed about this hotel was their staff is very fast and helpful.A friend of mine decided to come with me to Basel and because of the conference that we were attending all the rooms were fully booked. I was desperate and send them an email. Unexpectedly they answered within an hour and they agreed to put an... More

I was there only for one night and I was very surprised by the low fare. My single room was very modern, the bed was a quality one, and the breakfast was much more than excellent. Most rooms are facing on the street and the tramway can be a bit noisy for some. Only one negative point: there was only... More

The hotel is nearby to the conference center (Messe Basel) and is primarily targeted at attendees thereof. But it is conveniently located if you're a tourist visiting basel. As a hotel guest, you get a free Mobility-Card to ride buses and trams throughout the city. Most places of interest are easily reachable by tram from the hotel. The room itself... More

The room: small, with a single bed, but clean and complete, good bathroom, hot water, safe, couch, desk. And affordable. At the reception several languages were spoken. The elevator is extremely slow, but staying on the second floor I didn't really need it. Breakfast buffet didn't have the default scrambled eggs and bacon, it was more local oriented. The soft...

I stayed for a couple of nights in August 2011 at the hotel. For 65 swiss francs, I had one of the business singles room, including breakfast and free internet. The hotel is close to the German railway station, and 6 or 7 minutes by tram from the main Swiss station, or a 15 minute walk. I'm sure most of... More

I spent one night at Hotel Du Commerce when being on a business travel nearby Basel. The hotel was easy to find with a GPS, but we missed the hotel parking. Entrance to the hotel's parking lot is very close to the hotel's entrance, but the sign telling it's there is hard to see when you come from one particular... More

Basel is a very expensive city so this was a decent option. Stayed for two nights in a single room. Reception is very small but no queue when I checked in. The room had a decent TV and a writing desk but was quite small. Bathroom and bed were fine and breakfast was a decent standard though reflected that it's... More
