BAH doesn’t return any results for Strasbourg (when selecting as the destination), and Basel only gives hotels in the city. Separate bookings it is.
BAH coverage is fairly limited. For instance, I couldn't manage to book anything in mainland China when I last looked. They tend to offer hotels in most (not all) of the large or very touristy cities that they fly to and a random selection of others (e.g. some beach or historical areas where they only fly to the capital city, or places where they used to fly to even if they do not do so any more such as Kuala Lumpur).
Additionally, naming of locations on BAH can sometimes be a city, sometimes a region, sometimes a precision alongside a city (e.g. Bologna region in addition to Bologna, etc).
In the specific case you are looking for, it is actually possible to enter "Alsace Lorraine" which would include Strasbourg, however, for the dates I looked at least, this didn't return any result.
