How to find a hotel in Basel

The Old Town on the river's left bank is the most walkable base, close to the Marktplatz and cathedral, while Kleinbasel across the river is slightly cheaper and equally central via the frequent trams. Prices rise sharply during major trade fairs such as Art Basel and Baselworld-style events, so checking the fair calendar before booking matters more than the season.

Best time to visit: Outside major fair dates; spring and early autumn offer the mildest weather.
