Apart from the staff (who were really friendly and helpful) I can’t find anything to recommend this hotel. The first room we were given, the air conditioning didn’t work. The reception lady very kindly moved us to a different room but the air conditioning didn’t work either. The shower head was missing the proper bracket so you could only shower holding the spray head. The mattress on the bed was quite thin and not comfortable. Unless you have a dedicated Swiss adapter you can’t use any of the electrical sockets as they are all recessed into a triangular socket plate. So we couldn’t charge a phone or use my hairdryer (there isn’t one provided in the room). There is the option to buy an adapter from reception (the Swiss do like getting you to part with your money). Also, if you need to park your car it’s 10 Swiss francs a night. We stopped over for 1 night to break up a long drive from Italy to Calais, but won’t be stopping again.

I had booked 3 rooms for myself and my family for 6 nights to visit the lovely city of Basel and the rest of Switzerland. Even though the country and city were beautiful there were a few things that were not acceptable. Firstly, I was disappointed that there were no complimentary water bottles in the rooms, unlike any other Marriott rooms I have stayed in. During our stay, Sarah was always kind enough to provide water bottles when asked which made our night. However when I asked for water again on our 3rd night via the Bonvoy App, someone very rudely rejected my request, as you can see in the below screenshot of the message from the app. It was not pleasant and made me feel very uncomfortable to ask for a bottle of water. Being a Platinum member I did not expect to be spoken to that way for a bottle of water. Secondly, on my last night, I spoke with Sarah regarding my F&B credit that I chose upon check-in and it was mentioned that I was entitled to 10CFH per person per room per night. I double checked if it could be accumulated and then used in one go and I was told I could, so I decided to have dinner with everyone on our last night. When I checked-out, a man who came from the restaurant and checked out my rooms, I confirmed with him if I could get my F&B credit applied and he said yes, he rushed my check out and went back to the restaurant. When I received my final invoice online a few hours later with only say 1 day's F&B credit applied and not all for the 6 nights I was led to believe I could have. I was told I could get 10CHF per person per room night which is 20 x 3= 60, 60 x 6 = 360 CHF F&B discount as per Sarah and that she would write notes on my reservation so that the discount could be applied. If you see my invoices attached below, only 20CHF was applied for the whole duration. Can you please apply the discount that I was verbally told and confirmed several times as I was ordering the food and as I was checking out and compensate/refund what was charged on my card? I am very upset that there was not cohesive communication between the receptionists, I was being given incorrect information every time I spoke to a different person at the Front Desk. Thirdly, I was only told by Sarah that my postcards would be sent complimentary as I asked how much it would cost, she mentioned it would be complimentary, yet I received a separate invoice for the postcards. I would not have minded paying however telling me it's free and then charging me is unfair and not truthful. Is it how Courtyard Basel treats all their guests? I would like to be compensated, if it was verbally spoken it would be, it should be free, not charged when I am not aware. Lastly, staying for 6 nights you'd expect the room to be cleaned not just tidied... however none of the water bottles that were finished and empty were removed from the room. for 3 consecutive nights, the empty water bottles were left in the room which by the time we left had accumulated into a pile o

RECEPTION Wir kamen spät an, diese späte Ankunft war aber bestens organisiert und es hat problemlos geklappt. Am nächsten Tag verlief das Check-In problemlos und die Mitarbeiter waren zu jeder Zeit sehr freundlich und zuvorkommend. ZIMMER Diese sind gross, sauber und zweckmässig eingerichtet. Für Familien ist das Familienzimmer ideal - und sehr fair im Preis! FRUEHSTUECK Dies nahmen wir im zugehörigen Coop-Restaurant ein - und auch dieses Buffet war grosszügig, frisch und fein. LAGE 2 Minuten vom Tram, das in wenigen Minuten in die Basler Innenstadt fährt. Mit der Gästekarte ist der öV dabei - super! Wir können dieses Hotel nur weiterempfehlen!

On arrival I was greeted by one of the most charming and personable gentlemen I've met in a long time. He was a fountain of knowledge and told me everything I needed to know, and a few things I didnt. The stay included a free travel card to move freely into Basel and back, which also gave discounts at many attractions. The hotel sits in a very picturesque town, a short tram ride from the city. It really is quite lovely to walk around. The room was comfortable but fairly small, but the main issue was it seemed to lack any natural light, even with the window open. It meant I had the light on whenever I was in the room which was a little depressing. The pillows are a bit mad and caused endless, unnecessary wrestling to get comfortable. Breakfast was distinctly average, and not really much to write about. All in all, everything added up to a very average stay, despite the staffs best efforts to make it otherwise.

Reception was very quick and efficient and the elevator is right next to it. The restaurant is across the hall from the reception. The room was a bit small but clean. The only odd thing throughout the hotel and even going into the restaurant is that there are small little dips going from the main floor into the restaurant, maybe only a half inch. It was the same going into our room. Slight step into the room then a short hallway with a slight dip again. Breakfast was good and the staff was super helpful. Appreciated the free transit pass.
