Silo Design & Boutique Hostel Basel

Stunning setup with a minimalistic industrial look. My dorm was exactly like in the pictures and I was lucky enough to be the only guest during my stay. The staff is simply the most loving and friendly. Since I was there for work and had to leave the hostel before breakfast they made sure to prepare a breakfast box. The hostel is well connected to public transports (tickets covered from the hostel during your stay) and a twenty minutes walk away from the city centre. Not a party hostel, perfect for families, solo travelers and couples.

The room was really spacious and so were the bathrooms. Super super clean, up to swiss standards. The towels are included, which is great for people that travel light. Bathroom also had some shareable toiletries just in case you forgot something. There are two common rooms to hang out with fridge and kettle for your use. Breakfast is great and fresh. They include a free pass for buses and trams which is really convenient. Plus the staff is really helpful (they were very patient with me on my checkout day).

The best hostel we’ve ever stayed at! Very kind personnel, clean, sustainable, comfortable and cozy! We even had a nice welcome pack in the room and the Basel card for free public transport during our stay + 50% off for museums and exhibitions! We also had all the facilities in the room or by request (e.g. umbrellas, iron, etc). The breakfast was a selection of delicious, sustainable vegetarian option. We had self check-in and check-out which worked great!

I had a truly wonderful experience staying at Silo Hostel in Basel. The atmosphere is warm, stylish, and refreshingly different from typical hostels. The building itself, a beautifully converted industrial silo, blends modern design with comfort in a way that feels both artistic and welcoming. The rooms were spotless, quiet, and thoughtfully designed, with comfortable beds and ample space. I especially appreciated the attention to detail and the eco-friendly approach throughout the hostel. The staff were incredibly friendly, helpful, and always ready to answer questions or offer local tips. The common areas—especially the lounge and café—are perfect for relaxing or socializing with travelers from around the world. The breakfast was fresh and delicious, with plenty of options. The location is also excellent: peaceful yet well-connected by public transport, and just a short tram ride from the city center and major sights. Overall, Silo Hostel exceeded my expectations. It’s a place I would gladly return to and highly recommend to anyone looking for a unique and comfortable stay in Basel.

Super clean property and nice high ceiling building.Good decorated breakfast area at the first floor.There is no 24 hrs reception but check in is super easy with tablet.They provide you a basel card for public transportation which is nice touch for me.To me just the breakfast was bit poor can be improved.For example i saw a carrots on the veggie side and havent seen anyone eating carrot in the morning can be replace with tomatos.Also there is no hot dishes at the breakfast even by additional cost.Beside that i loved it here.Easy to reach from airport and just 6-7 mins walk to musical theather tram station which u can use to go to center..There was a lady at the breakfast she was kind.Thank you
