My week’s stay at Kloster was truly “a home away from home”. Staff were helpful, it was warm, spacious and historically characterful. The shared bathrooms were hygienic and well equipped. The view from my room of the Gampen was very pleasant and most importantly, the bed was perfect! Thank you.

Stay in a Monastery

Truly different type of stay in a monastery. Rooms are spartan but clean, no tv, shared toilet and showers in the corridor. Good restaurant and location right by the train station

A very nice surprise!

Very different from the usual hotel stay; no TV or other electronics to disturb you and the church bells at 07:00 is a great way to wake up. The shared bathrooms made me a bit apprehensive, but once I saw the bathrooms, I found them to be private and very clean. The staff are very friendly and the atmosphere is very unique. I highly recommend staying at the hotel, which is very close to the train station and thus easy to reach from Basel SBB. The hotel is much prettier than shown in the thumbnail, so give it a go.

Affordable and nice.

This place is the most affordable by on of my workplaces. It is very budget friendly but did not include a private bathroom for the lowest cost room. I was okay with that though. Nearby is lots of pretty nature for jogging etc.

Perfect location for business trip

What a beautiful place. The garden was something special to visit after work. Maybe not for everyone because of the shared bathroom but the price matched the amenities. The staff was also very helpful and accommodated my later arrival.

convenient hotel

This hotels is very nice option for various reasons - the price/quality ratio is very good, also not hard to park plus public transport is also nearby. Very recommended for people who has a reason to travel to nearby places, but also OK for people whose target is city center but without no hurry.

Kloster Dornach - monastic living!

The hotel is an inexpensive and atmospheric place to stay in the Basel area of Switzerland. My room lacked a washbasin, so be prepared to use a common bathroom for all needs. The small kitchen for guests is useful. The hotel provides only one bath towel and room lighting can be dim. It is a great place for those on a budget who are attending conferences at the Goetheanum. A nice breakfast is included. The hotel's restaurant is upscale and pricey. but there is a choice of restaurants nearby in the village. The location across the street from the railroad station is a plus.
