What People are Saying
- - EIRE-VIAGGIO
Great - Organic hotel Great place, a surprise in a way, great value, very well located and lovely food. I ordered room service and had breakfast, also a free mini bar with all organic drinks. A link the the suppliers would be great.
Sherilyn on reception was super helpful. I will definitely stay here again. - EIRE-VIAGGIO- BursensVery cozy hotel with friendly staff Basel Public transportation is exceptional and covers all the city. For this reason the hotel location is perfect since it is next to the railway station with a car public parking right below. Breakfast is exceptional and staff very friendly and helpful. - Bursens

Everything perfect (and beyond) Never have I set foot in a hotel that. exceeded my expectations like Gaia hotel did. Their sincere friendliness is unusual for these times, and so are their services. The hotel is clean but not boring, quiet yet right next to the train station, and the breakfast is outstanding. Literally not a single point of improvement! - 120sydneys

Welcome to our HOTEL!
Come as a Guest,
leave as a Friend!
The Geyer family has been running what was formerly known as the Hotel St. Gotthard in Basel since 1929; from October 1st 2015 it has been called the GAIA HOTEL.
“GAIA” means “Mother Earth”, who personifies the entire ecosystem of our planet. The name represents our commitment to doing our bit for the wellbeing, happiness and hope of future generations.
You will therefore find that in the GAIA Hotel we provide exclusively regional organic and biodynamic products – in the minibar, as part of our conference services, and in the spa.
Sustained sustainability, the comfort of a four-star hotel, modern technology – plus the warm hospitality from our family business: that’s the GAIA Hotel in Basel in a nutshell!
