Of three elevators, one was operational. Unfortunately it was also not the one leading to the sauna, so you had enquire how to reach it. Upon check-in no information was given whatsoever, and room contained no info, such as the mini-bar. The hotel has also cut down on breakfast severely. It used to be one of the best we've had, but this time was very poor.

At German side of the bridge of 3 countries

We couldn’t have been more satisfied

After many hours on the road, we finally arrived at the "Carathotel Basel/Weil am Rhein" and we couldn’t have been more satisfied. The staff were incredibly kind and welcoming, and our room was absolutely perfect. We were given a huge, comfortable bed, and everything was clean and well-prepared. We truly can’t fault a single thing and would wholeheartedly recommend this place to anyone looking for a relaxing and pleasant stay.

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.

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.

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 Although this hotel had slightly outdated décor, one can see that this hotel, and it's staff, have a lot of pride in their work place, and they offer great service.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.

When you’re on the 8th floor, you need the lifts to work. With three lifts that shouldn’t be a concern, but when only one slow lift is working then that mars the overall experience. Some guests with baggage waiting 10 minutes to get up to their room. The staff on reception were apologetic, but this clearly had been an issue for some time. The hotel is best suited to those who come by car, and is in an industrial estate. Be aware that public transportation options are somewhat limited in the immediate vicinity, for example a 20 minute walk to the nearest Basel Tram stop. OK in sunny June, but in the wetter colder months you would likely need to book a taxi. The food was excellent.

The property location was a good bit away from transport, room was quite dirty with a bug even being the bathroom cup and staff also being fairly unhelpful - my partner had also left her Fitbit watch in the room and we have contacted the hotel to try and have it sent back but instead it seems to have been stolen instead as there is recent activity within the app. Try and avoid if possible!

The hotel has lost its former glory

We have stayed at the hotel several times before and were always very satisfied and loved it. We don’t know what’s going on — whether the management has changed or something else is happening at the moment. The staff can hardly speak German. When checking in, you now have to enter and register everything yourself on a tablet, even though we are regular guests and already registered. We find this very inconvenient. The bathroom was also not cleaned properly. Out of three elevators, two were out of order. No money left for electricity? In addition, breakfast is no longer included, and you end up paying significantly more for everything including breakfast. The beloved breakfast buffet is gone, and you can now only choose from fixed breakfast menus (€19 per person). The breakfast was good and plentiful, but we noticed a lot of unnecessary food waste. On top of that, the staff were completely overwhelmed, both in terms of language and the number of guests, and we had to wait a long time to get a table and then again for the breakfast to arrive. Our advice to management: go back to the old system. Otherwise, you’ll lose your customers. We, for our part, won’t be coming back.
