Great value stay.

We stay at this hotel whenever we travel from UK to Italy as it is so convenient on the French/German/Swiss border. It never fails to give excellent value for money - including a terrific breakfast.

The staff here is easily the best I've ever experienced. Extremely helpful, kind, and fun, and they put in the extra effort to make guests feel at home and comfortable. They alone are reason to stay again, but the hotel is a great bargain as well. Loved it!

The Hotel (especially the room) looks run down. The room had AC which did not work, fortunately one could open the window to get the heat out. Staff was friendly and helpful and the location is good. Overall the stay was ok for what we were looking for. But again, the rooms could use a refresh.

Clean hotel

A clean older hotel with friendly and helpful staff. Prices are quite high considering the standard of the hotel and the neighborhood ( a rather trashy environment ). Prices are probably high because of the nearby Swiss border and even more expensive Swiss hotels across that. - If you arrive by car, there is a large parking lot, however, if you arrive by public transport ( bus or tram) you will have to walk quite a distance, in an area that does not seem very safe or meant for pedestrians ( this is written by a woman).

The room was clean and silent, it was possible to sleep very well. The parking place is quite big so I could park my car easily. The breakfast is without buffet and a bit limiting for me because I love to eat both sweet and continental breakfast, so ordering from a fixed breakfast choice that was not possible. The breakfast is quite expensive if you don't book it with the room.

The staff were absolutely fantastic and extremely helpful. The breakfast included a great variety with food to suit all tastes. We stayed here to visit Basle which was a short tram ride away. It took about half an hour to get to the tram station. I think this would be a good hotel to visit if on a motorbike tour as there's a big car park and an excellent bar. The perfect way to wind down and relax. Our room was a great size and very comfortable. Definitely worth a visit as you won't be disappointed.

Dislike: I left the sign on my door (Do Not Disturb) but still they went in and cleaned the room, that side needs to be looked at. But on the whole was good

Would definitely recommend!

I highly recommend that everyone should look beyond the big expensive city of Basel and look into Germany for accommodations. Although this hotel had slightly outdated décor, one can see that this hotel, and it's staff, have a lot of pride in their work place, and they offer great service. My room was spotless, had all the necessities except for air conditioning but thankfully, it was a cool enough night that it wasn't necessary. The hotel offered a plentiful and fresh breakfast buffet that was fit for a king. Everything was wonderful at the Carathotel. I really commend the staff that was very welcoming.

We stayed one week at Carathotel Basel during Eurovision. Our room was spacious and clean even being a little older. Staff was helpful and wonderful. Breakfast was an amazing spread of everything you could possibly want. Transportation into Basel was about a 15 minute walk to the tram or you could catch a bus across the street, but we enjoyed the walk. The only (minor) issue was that there was only 1 elevator working while we were there, and sometimes the wait for it was quite long.

The staff were friendly and helpful. Breakfast was included and there was a nice array of items to choose from. The building is dated and drab. Only one of three elevators were working. The room itself was dingy and dated. Bed linens were clean and the bed was comfortable. Amenities in the room were limited/bare bones. No modern upgrades (e.g. no usb ports for charging devices).
