It's very difficult to find cheap accommodation in Basel. The Hotel Steinengraben is one of the cheapest options. The 1950's don't quite seem to have to come to an end here, a feeling strengthened the oil paintings in the entrance.

The unusual murals provide a reminder of Art Nouveau both in colour and form. If you want a simple, but clean place to stay, this is ideal.
