Basecamp is a unique facility and certainly worth a visit. Unfortunately, the campers that are for rent seem to need a general overhaul. Right now at least the one we used was neither really clean nor in a good shape otherwise. E. g. door of fridges were closed with duck tape, light switches, too. Wardrobes were quite dusty inside, overall a bit shabby. For 130 Euro a night (including breakfast, 3 persons in one camper) I would have expected more. I also felt that because of this, the full potential of the place is not used. Shared toilets were not really cleaned often enough during the day and there was a strong urine smell in the men's toilet. Breakfast was excellt and despite the mentioned negative experiences I would come back. Just for the fun of it.

Excellent stay at somewhere different. Very clean in the railway carriage and shared bathroom was spotless. Good breakfast also served but no hot options.

Such an unique accommodation with a very nice atmosphere.

I liked the concept of staying in a trailer or train car, although my friend and I found it to bit cramped and not so practical at times. It took us a while to find the ladder which could be used to climb into the top bunk, and then even longer to find where to stand it in order to climb into it. We both slept well and enjoyed the buffet breakfast, and had a pleasant stay overall.

Good atmosphere, and so interesting to stay in any cabin. I want to go again.

10.0 / 10.0

Great concept, really cool design. Great for all ages, from families to solo travellers. Staff was friendly, place was spot on clean at all times, and breakfast had a lot of options. For mentor only negative was the sleeping compartment (train) only had a tiny window, so it got hot and claustrophobic fast. Overall great once in a lifetime experience that o would recommend others.

Very nice and unique idea. This is my 4th stay at the BaseCamp and would still like to stay there again. Reasonable price, but cabins in the train wagon are somewhat tight.

Such a unique place to stay. Really incredible level of thought and detail in the decor. Communal toilets and showers really clean. We were a little warm in our train carriage accommodation (in October), we noticed others slept with the door ajar all night to get some air. Breakfast was good.

8.0 / 10.0

Quirky and amusing idea for a hotel, the simple fact of exploring it and its décors is intriguing and entertaining enough. My room may have been spatially tight but more or less I knew what I was getting into as I was booking a train compartment. Very good breakfast. Good location to explore the former (and partly current) capital area of Bonn and the very interesting Haus der Geschichte.

Funny hostel where you sleep in the old caravans. I can recommend

4.0 / 10.0

Less than mediocre. All facilities are old, washed-up and dirty. Showers are aweful & there's no room for you to put your clothes unless you wanna take them in the shower with you. Staff wasn't very friendly. My towel was dirty. The bunk beds in the tour bus are the worst thing I've ever slept on. Ultra hard & uncomfortable mattresses, extremely small (I'm 1,65m & barely made it inside), the sheets are WAY too warm for summer (I was not the only one complaining. I overheard several peoople during breakfast mentioning the same things), despite tiny windows (mine was broken so that anybody could have reached through there during the night & steal my phone) there's hardly any air circulation in the room (was in there with just 2 other people. I don't even want to imagine how it is with up to 8) and the wall which you are pressed against was dirty and had holes ripped in it. Breakfast was ok. I do not underatand the good ratings. For 26€/night I have been to much nicer places AND hostels. If you don't mind an over-priced shabby place with dirty corners & waking up with a free headache and numb legs, this is the place for you.

I stayed three nights for business and enjoyed my time there. Fun experience. Quiet at night. Near public transportation. Beds quite firm. It's not luxury but so much better than your typical hostel experience.

Had a small compartment in the big train carriage - but after I alerted the staff to a weird toilet smell in that section of the warehouse, they put me straight into a really cool hippie VW van instead, which was a great surprise. Its well worth the money, and super clean. The most laid back and relaxed hostel Ive stayed in - also near the Maritim Hotel for the popular Ring Con and Hobbitcon/ Magic Con.

Closer to a youth hostel than a hotel. Quiet, nice, and fun. Glad to be able to stay there.

AMAZING CONCEPT, CLEAN AND NEW. NEAR TO ZENTRUM, many museum next to the place, easy to access, nice breakfast.

8.0 / 10.0

I've never seen such a interesting hostel, with many buses and trains turned into fashionable rooms, especially at night, the atmosphere was amazing with color lights and nice music. The staff was friendly and of course, perfect English. Only 10 min by train to the center of Bonn, and on the way to the station, you can have nice meals in those restaurants around there. The space between two bunk beds was a little low so it was a little bit hard for my big companion, but for me it was perfect. If I stayed there during the time they had events, it would be even greater!

room was a bit small, but totally enough for a short stay.service was pretty sweet, they let me check in in the morning of the day.and not far form the tram station, convenient.

2.0 / 10.0

This is a fun place to stay if you like camping. We slept in a train sleeper car so we knew the bunks would be small, but the space was much tighter than expected. Also we didnt realize beforehand that it was a large train car with many cabins, so there was a lot of noise from others coming in and out and the cabin doors do not insulate the sound at all. The common areas for lounging, breakfast and bathrooms were in excellent condition and clean. Helpful staff, good basic cold breakfast (cereal, bread, lunch meat, cheese, yogurt). Overall it was fun for one night, but it was too expensive for what you get.

My friends and I had flight problems and missed our stay at Base Camp Bonn. The staff was wonderful and understanding when we cancelled. Their actions were very professional and timely. We will sometime in the future stay at the Camp and am looking forward to the experience. I filled numbers in just to complete the review.

Look at the pictures, read other reviews and, if it floats your boat, book. If you want glorious deep comfy beds, silence and plenty of personal space then you probably decided against starting here already. We booked, loved it and had a great time, used the microwave and "kitchen area" to self cater and save money. Breakfast was fine. Everyone was relaxed and friendly. Facilities were spotlessly clean.

2.0 / 10.0

Decent for the price. Clean, good breakfast, lots of activities, free parking, right off the freeway. We stayed in the Streamline trailer which was cool, but tight for a family of four. Wed stay here again
