Prima hotel met goede voorzieningen

Wij hebben een kamer geboekt voor de rust, vanwege de Elfstedentocht. De kamer zag er erg netjes uit; er was bijna niets op aan te merken. Het enige dat wij misten, waren de verduisterende gordijnen. Door het ontbreken hiervan werden wij eerder wakker dan de bedoeling was. Het restaurant heeft een goede menukaart en het ontbijt was meer dan prima. Het personeel is uitermate vriendelijk en behulpzaam. Al met al een dikke voldoende voor dit hotel.

Heerlijk genieten in de wellness suite!

We hebben ontzettend genoten van ons verblijf in jullie wellness suite. Het personeel was erg vriendelijk en behulpzaam. De wellness faciliteiten (sauna, bubbelbad en dubbele regendouche) in de kamer zijn fantastisch. Netheid op de kamer kan beter: sommige plekjes wat smoezelig en hier en daar vonden we wat kruimels. Het ontbijt is royaal met veel keuze.
