Carathotel Basel/Weil am Rhein

Came with my 11months old daughter and my husband for 2 nights in a superior room with free minibar. The staff was very friendly and accommodating also in the restaurant. The Mexican dinner was very good but what really made a difference was the included breakfast that was amazing. Huge free parking and location very close to Basel and France. We requested a crib for our baby and the pack n play we found was perfect, even with baby pillow blanket and cute snoopy linen. We expected the minibar to be refilled the second day but that did not happen as well as the cleaning. Nobody came to clean our room, but again, we stayed only 2 nights so it was ok.

An oldie but goldie hotel built in American style, just near the border. Spacey, comfortable rooms and overall atmosphere of "shelter from the storm", since the industrial landscape of Rhein area is not that welcoming. Cozy bar and restaurant in the hotel. There is a small sauna but don't expect a spa center. Rooms and hallways are decorated with beautiful paintings (and signed) which I wish more hotels did - add artsy vibe to the whole thing. Breakfasts are fantastic, I urge you not to oversleep it (until 10:30). Perfect to relax after the long drive.

The breakfast was as always fantastic! The variety and quality is superb! The room is very spacious and the bed was very comfortable. We both love this hotel as it is so close to the motorway and Swiss and French border.

Good breakfeast buffet, not the boring 5* affluance, but enough healthy choice for westerners for a a good quality start of the day. Large spacious room, cosy bar ambiance, easy reach from highway and free parking. Still in Germany, so compared to Switzerland affordable gaz stations and supermarkets around. Somewhat dated hotel, but hope they will not renovate coming years to keep prices competitive. Good last minute price offer and all you need for a relaxed stopover after long drive.

Probably the best hotel for a stop-over while driving between Germany and to/via Switzerland: this better-old-times quality and style of equipment and amenities with spacious rooms, cozy light of standing lamps, real wood and metal furniture one does not find anymore in very modern hotels; very good breakfast, vast and easy to drive parking area, polite personnel. Thank you!
