“Great value stay in calm surroundings”

Stayed here for one night with a large group visiting Nijmegen. The room was large and comfortable, though it could use some modernization. There was a small balcony offering a very nice view of the outside. I left the window open with the curtains closed overnight to get some colder air in, but wasn't disturbed by either insects or traffic noise. It seems the hotel is in a very calm area. Parking outside was free. The bar and restaurant staff were very pleasant and fast. Our only negative experience was when checking in: this took forever, even though we had booked in advance. I wish the reception staff had been better prepared to receive such a large group, having the keys ready at our arrival.

“Decent 3 star forest hotel”

Ticks most expectations for a 3-star place. Spacious rooms, good bathroom with separate tub and shower; however water pressure and temperature can fluctuate largely, hence not a very comfortable shower. Many smaller maintenance issues on the furniture and windows too, however none really disturb... more

Ticks most expectations for a 3-star place. Spacious rooms, good bathroom with separate tub and shower; however water pressure and temperature can fluctuate largely, hence not a very comfortable shower. Many smaller maintenance issues on the furniture and windows too, however none really disturbing (except the water temp). Good Wifi. Friendly reception staff, nice hotel pool with outside terrace, and good and varied 3-star breakfast buffet with some hot dishes and plenty of fruit. (Dinner is another story, see separate - underwhelming - review). Great place for forest walks and also (until late 2024) visiting the Afrika museum. Good bus connection to Nijmegen city (10 mins walk).

“Avoid the restaurant.”

Im currently staying at this hotel for a business trip. The hotel room is okay'ish" outdated, really cold. My thermometer says 17,5 degrees I can live with that, since im scandinavian. But the restaurant. Oh god, out of 76 hotels this year, this is by far the worst yet. My starter was sort of ok, carpaccio, with truffle creme. They could have selected a better cheese, perhaps some pine nuts, instead of sunflower. But it was acceptable. The maincourse, I selected their "Fletcher burger" I have never, over the last 5 years with +100 hotels each year, had anything so bad. the patty was obviously supermarket grade. No flavour, wet inside, and looked more like a wet grey sock. The bacon looked like it had been microwaved. dripping with fat. And was all white. The tomato (1 slice of tomato, where it was a third of 1 tomato) was some hours old, as it was really dry and felt like rubber. 1 out of 10, if I had to give it a rating.
