Welcome

Life can be both sweet and bitter, just like the cocoa beans that used to be stored here in the Silo over a hundred years ago. Now people stay here. Now you are staying here.

Silo has many porthole-like windows through which you can look out to the neighborhood and the city. When we lower the sunshades over the windows, it's like a wink. Silo is winking at you: come closer, come on in!

Location

There used to be a freight depot here in Erlenmatt. Today it’s a growing residential area. It’s just a short hop to the Badischer Bahnhof station, and from the Silo you can reach all the hotspots in the Basel area.

Come close

Architecture

Experience what happens when a visionary foundation and careful architectural team turn a 1912 warehouse into a vibrant centerpiece for the neighborhood.

Be amazed

Hostel

We live togetherness. But we have space and rooms for all needs. Our rooms are larger than average, and the view of the world through our porthole windows is special. Come in and relax!
