Positief: Netheid, voorzieningen en staat van de accommodatie en faciliteiten
The hotel was lovely and we had a very enjoyable stay. Our room was warm, spacious, well furnished and cleaned to a high standard every day. Breakfast offered an excellent range of choices, and all the staff were friendly and efficient throughout our visit.
A special mention must go to Julia, who served us at breakfast. She was exceptional. She took the time to help us plan our days, offering practical advice on using the trains and explaining what was located in the areas we wanted to explore. Her knowledge and willingness to help really enhanced our trip. She is a real asset to the hotel.
The evening bar facilities were greatly appreciated. It was convenient to have the cost of drinks charged to the room and settled at checkout. The drink prices were also reasonable.
Although I have given 5 stars overall, one aspect gave me pause. The hotel does not provide any designated smoking or vaping areas within the complex, and vaping is not permitted on the balconies. I fully respect not smoking or vaping in the room, but it was disappointing that the only suggested area was outside the front of the hotel, directly opposite a school. It also made paying extra for a balcony feel less worthwhile, particularly given the view over a rather scruffy yard/garden area. A designated outdoor smoking/vaping area with a covered, heated shelter would be beneficial, especially during cold or rainy weather.
That said, the service, comfort, and overall experience were excellent.
