Really nice place that's not too loud even though it's right by a busy road. The restaurant food was really nice and they give you a voucher for a free drink there if you choose to not have your room cleaned each day. Staff were friendly and it was overall a nice place to stay.

Preiswerte Unterkunft, hervorragendes Essen und eine bildschöne Umgebung. Dazu ganz prima Angestellte. Auszeichnung als beste Raststätte der Niederlande im 2016 - zurecht. Die A6 ist zwar direkt nebendran, aber die schalldämpfenden Zimmerfenster ermöglichen gute Nachtruhe. Empfehlenswert!

Lovely!

The room was possibly slightly small, but very clean and modern. The lake out the back was beautiful. We possibly had the best view of the lake (from room 19). The hotel is just off the motorway far enough away, and with good sound proofing, that you cannot hear the motorway at all.

Daarnaast hebben wij eten besteld. Het vlees naar ongewassen vlees en de rijst leek net opgewarmt iuit een kuipje te komen. Groene curry, nou sorry.

Es hat mir sehr gut gefallen. Landschaftlich sehr idyllisch. Selten so eine Unterkunft an der Autobahn erlebt. Im Zimmer hat man die Autobahn überhaupt nicht gehört. Für einen Kurztrip reicht es allemal aus. Das Personal ist sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit. Es hat mir sehr gut gefallen.

Grundsätzlich ein sehr freundlicher Empfang und nach hinten heraus auch eine wunderschönes Areal. Das Zimmer war sehr sauber, wenn auch sehr klein. Leider gab es keine Ablagemöglichkeiten wie z. B. ein Nachttisch am Bett für eine Uhr in der Nacht. Allerdings handelt es sich um ein Hotel auf einer Autobahnraststätte, zu der man nur von einer Seite eine Zufahrt hat. Es gibt keine anderweitige Zufahrt als über die Autobahn von Almere Richtung Lelystad kommend. Wenn man demnach von Lelystad kommt, muss man zunächst am Hotel komplett vorbeifahren bis zur nächsten Ausfahrt, dort wenden und dann wieder Richtung Lelystad fahren. Möchte man nach dem Hotelaufenthalt dann aber Richtung Almere, dann muss man zunächst erst nach Lelystad fahren, dort drehen und dann wieder am Hotel vorbei Richtung Almere fahren. Das kostet unter Umständen, so wie bei uns, ein paar anständige Kilometer. Unser Zimmer war tatsächlich sehr klein und zur Autobahn raus gelegen. Überraschenderweise hielt sich der Lärm Nachts aber in Grenzen. Ein Zimmer nach hinten heraus ist sicher deutlich angenehmer, da die Kullisse dort wirklich traumhaft schön. Wir würden dennoch beim nächsten Mal lieber in Almere oder Lelystad direkt übernachten - ist einfach praktischer. Dennoch vielen Dank an das Hotel.

Pas adapté pour un voyage sur Amsterdam

Surement très bien pour une nuit étape sur l’autoroute mais pas du tout adapté pour un séjour de plusieurs jours car situé sur l’autoroute, il faut donc faire un long détour pour retrourner sur Amsterdam. La chambre est spacieuse et jolie. Par contre 2 lits 1 personne qui se séparent tout le temps en guise de lit double pas super quand on est en voyage en couple. La télévision n’accepte pas le cromcast. Nous avons voulu manger au restaurant et nous nous sommes fait refouler à 21h15 de façons peu sympa.
