Very nice hotel. Friendly staff. Hassle free car park. Only stayed 1 night but would stay again

This property is in close proximity to Ribeauville and Colmar. The outdoor pool is great. We love to stay here when we have the chance to be in Alsace.

We enjoyed our stay at the Carathotel, which was ideally located for access into Basel by tram, and well priced. The breakfast was excellent, a really good selection including gluten free bread and muffins. The hotel's mexican-style restaurant in the evening was also very good, again with gluten free options marked and very well priced. The hotel itself is a little tired given its age, but very well maintained and clean, and the bathroom particularly was well equipped, with great lighting and a bath. The hotel is actually in Germany, not Switzerland, which means that guests are not entitled to a Basel Tourist pass, however, the much lower price of the hotel rooms more than compensates for this. It is about at 10 minute walk to the tram station from the hotel and then only a 10 minute ride to Basel AltStadt. The hotel information stated that there was a shuttle to the airport, which is not the case, they simply book a taxi. We were told the cost would be no more than 35 euros, but it actually cost 45.
