Supermotel Basel

A nine-room motel in Kleinbasel, right beside Messe Basel – rooms sized for families and groups around a quiet inner courtyard, each with its own bathroom.

Hosts Kris and Francesco have set up Supermotel around a courtyard off the Riehenring, a few steps from the Messeplatz and within walking distance of the Rhine and the old town. The nine rooms are built for families and groups travelling together, each with a private bathroom, WiFi and air conditioning.

The idea sits somewhere between hotel and shared house: close the door at night, then cook, make an espresso and eat together at the big table in the communal kitchen. For children there is a play corner, a climbing wall and board games, and two washing machines and dryers are free for guests. Parking is in the motel's own underground garage, reached by car lift, and the BaselCard is included with every stay.
