I use the Krafft for business at least once per month, sometimes more often. The staff are always courteous and friendly and the service always very good. Rooms are clean, bright and well-furnished and the bathrooms have an old-fashioned charm. There is a fantastic terrace at the back of the hotel, overlooking the Rhein, although this is very popular in... More

We had the Junior Suite which was fantastic . The bathroom has a massive bath and shower and good bathing products. The room was big and practical with a walk in robe. The hotel is situated in the banks of the Rhine and walking distance to many of the sights in the old town. A tram takes you to the... More

I really liked the location of Krafft. Just on the waterfront. The room was nice and well decorated, but didn't really understand why they only had feather pillows and quilts as they state they are very eco- friendly...Also, it kind of smells bad in the whole hotel. Wished I brought some incense. I really liked the kitchen on every floor... More

We stayed there for 1 night. The hotel's location is great, in the heart of Basel at the banks of the Rhine. We were put up in the annex which is across the street from the main hotel, so unfortunately didn't get to enjoy the river view. The room was modern yet quite cosy, and the bed was extremely comfortable.... More

Hotel Krafft is a meticulously renovated historical hotel set in the heart of Basel. The rooms feature a sleek and elegant mixture of vintage and modern appliances and are incredibly cosy and quiet. Ours had a small covered balcony facing the Rhine river, and the view was breathtaking. With its cosy bed, warm atmosphere, well-insulated walls and windows, it was... More

We stayed for 1 night at this hotel in Novembre 2011, for a couple getaway. The hotel is perfectly located, on the bank of the Rhein. It is cosy and quiet. The room was nice and clean but I guess that some parts of this hotel are already quite old... would need some refurbishement at some point, but it is... More

I stayed for a four day business trip and this hotel was chosen by my hosts. The room was very pleasant, 2nd floor facing the Rhein, which is a beautiful view. The room is simple, yet very functional with tasteful decor. The building is well preserved with am elegant stairway. It is nice to wake up, eat the good breakfast... More

I stayed here while attending a conference, so the hotel was chosen for me by the organizers who wanted to give their visitors an authentic Basel experience -- and this was it! On the plus side, the Krafft Hotel was charming, clean, and perfectly located in the city center. The view of the Rhine is truly special (and enticed me... More

Privately-owned hotel, one side overlooking the river, one a street. The street side can be noisy late at night (rowdy drinkers) and early morning (street-cleaning). The windows are double-galzed to keep the noise out, but there is no air-con so need to remain open in summer. It gets light early, so remember to pull down the external shutters! Rooms are... More
