Kuwaitvery convenient and close to city center, excellent facility, breakfast delicious
United States of AmericaPlace, room and wellness was as described. I stayed a week day night and so it was fairly quiet. Also the breakfast (while a little pricey), was good and the room you eat it in is quite impressive :) Bed was comfy. Wellness facilities are small but very nice, and during the week not so busy so thoroughly enjoyed that part!!
NetherlandsThe room was very pleasant and spaceous, the location couldn't be better - a quiet place just outside the crowded center, breakfast was splendid.
BelgiumThe hotel area and the gardens are beautiful! Breakfast was wonderful!
BrazilThe Oasis of rest peace and beauty of the old place in the middle of the center of Utrecht.
NetherlandsTHE STAFF IS VERY NICELY DRESSED AND PROPERLY PREPARED FOR ALL SITUATIONS, THEY WILL ALWAYS HELP AND PROVIDE THE NECESSARY INFORMATION, AS WELL AS TELL YOU WHERE AND WHAT IS BETTER
LatviaTHE RESTAURANT IS VERY ELASTIC, THE ATTITUDE TO CUSTOMERS EXCEEDS EXPECTATIONS, EVERYTHING IS VERY TASTY AND VARIOUS. INDIVIDUAL APPROACH TO CUSTOMERS, TAKING INTO ACCOUNT THE LIMITATIONS ON COOKING AND INGREDIENTS
LatviaThe property was beautiful and fun to explore. It is so much more than a hotel! I felt like I was a guest in a royal palace. The staff was extremely friendly and helpful. And the location was so convenient. They also rent bicycles, which I highly recommend to explore this beautiful city. Staying here was definitely a highlight of my entire trip!
United States of AmericaThis is an amazing hotel, very well located in the heart of Utrecht, and friendly staff.
