Enjoy luxury hotels and holidays at lower prices
Even the best hotels have empty beds. Because we keep it hush-hush, they slip us phenomenal deals. Too good to be true? Nah. Just too good to be public.

Property details
- Central spot: Connecting with both Basel's past and future, The Passage in downtown is so called due to its strategic location close to the city’s ancient walls. The hotel itself makes a rather more hip and edgy statement, with a dazzling white modernist facade, and an inner courtyard patio area - a truly tranquil urban oasis.
- Laid-back eats: Start your day strong with a breakfast buffet spread. Later, enjoy a selection of tapas-style snacks alongside a well-stocked bar featuring cocktails, beers, wines, and soft drinks. For other meals, choose something from the in-room dining menu, or explore the nearby quality restaurants.
- Inviting accommodation: Rooms are sleek and cosy spaces with a pop of colour, modern art accents, and high-end touches, such as Nespresso machines and L’Occitane toiletries. Triple-glazed windows and a Swiss-made king-size bed ensure a restful night’s sleep. For its effortless approach to hospitality, the hotel is listed among the top ten hotels in Basel.
How to get there
The Passage is located in downtown Basel, close to the SBB train station and a range of other public transport links. The nearest airport is EuroAirport Basel-Mulhouse-Freiburg, which is around seven kilometres away (under a 15-minute car journey).
