A local attraction - Neues Museum Biel, which is situated beside Restaurant Artus, is a part of the original culture of this city. Swiss cuisine will be what you are offered to taste at this place.
I go to the Basel Watch show every year, this is my third year staying here, always a great experience. Free wifi and it's fast! Free breakfast every day. The rates are the best I have seen around. The hotel is a bit far from Basel, maybe around an hour by train. But definitely worth the trip if you compare prices to Basel hotels which start at $350 a night.
