A Considered Space in the Heart of Basel - Gundeli

The PICCO PICASSO Apartment occupies a well-maintained residential building on Dornacherstrasse 161 in Basel - Gundeli, Switzerland, a city internationally recognized for its museums, art fairs, and the precise architecture that lines its streets. At 56 square metres, the apartment is thoughtfully proportioned — large enough to accommodate up to six guests across two bedrooms and a living room with a sofa bed, yet intimate enough to feel genuinely residential rather than transient. Elevator access ensures the building is convenient for all travellers regardless of luggage or mobility.

Special Apartments

The interior draws on warm, functional design: room-darkening shades allow for genuine rest, while the fully equipped kitchen — fitted with an oven, microwave, dishwasher, stove, toaster, water kettle, coffee maker, and fridge-freezer — means guests can cook and dine in comfort at the dedicated dining table. A desk and printer serve those blending work with travel, and the washer and dryer add the practical ease that longer stays demand. Crockery, cutlery, pots, pans, cooking basics, and cleaning products are all provided, so arrival requires no preliminary shopping.

Dornacherstrasse sits in a living, walkable quarter of Basel - Gundeli, connecting guests to local bakeries, tram lines, and neighbourhood supermarkets within short reach. The broader city — home to the Fondation Beyeler, the Basel - Gundeli Kunstmuseum, and the animated banks of the Rhine — is readily accessible by Basel - Gundeli's efficient public transport. For guests arriving by car, paid parking is available off premises.

Linens, towels, and essential toiletries including shampoo and hair dryer are provided. The apartment is equipped with a smoke detector, fire extinguisher, and first aid kit. Contactless check-in is available, allowing guests to arrive on their own schedule. Outdoor seating completes the offering, providing a space to take in fresh air and the unhurried rhythms of this Basel - Gundeli street.

A Day in Dornacherstrasse

You arrive via the elevator, key code in hand, and step into an apartment that already feels settled — linens turned down, the kitchen fully stocked with every utensil you might reach for. Basel - Gundeli is quiet at this hour, the tram outside a gentle reminder that the city moves at a considered pace.

Morning begins with coffee from the machine while daylight filters through the room-darkening shades drawn just enough to soften the early sun. The dining table is set for the group; bread and cheese from the neighbourhood bakery two blocks away anchor the first meal of the day. Those working open laptops at the desk, the printer ready for documents or boarding passes.

By mid-morning the apartment empties toward the city. Basel - Gundeli's Kunstmuseum and the Rhine promenade are within easy reach by tram. Others browse the Marktplatz or cross into France for the afternoon, returning to Dornacherstrasse by early evening with market finds and a plan to cook. The oven and stove handle the ambition; the dishwasher handles the aftermath.

Evenings gather everyone around the dining table. The sofa bed in the living room accommodates two more guests as the group settles in for the night, the room-darkening shades drawn fully now. Towels are fresh, extra blankets are folded in the closet, and the iron is on hand for tomorrow's early meeting or gallery opening. Basel - Gundeli rests quietly outside, and the apartment holds its guests in comfortable, unshowy warmth.
