Not ideal !
I booked 3 rooms in this hotel.. Hotel was generally clean but i was quite speechless when i found out that some rooms have no AC.. they provided a small fan though but in this warm weather it wasnt very useful. there was no double bed in the room but 2 beds put together which wasnt ideal. When having lunch, there was a worm in the straw of the drink which was disgusting and unacceptable. Good thing was that parking was on site and free.

The whole look and feel of this hotel was excellence. The room was spacious and well equiped including the bathroom which is often an afterthought in many hotels. The setting was tranquil with plenty of places to walk. I stay in many hotels all across europe when travelling on business and for the cost i would put this one top of the list

Modern, clean, details need work
Great location, quiet and close bike and walking paths. Room looked to be new, but bath plug was too small and I could not fill the tub, which was a shame. Internet dropped in and out of a wifi connection, and was not usable to watch a movie. The electronic door lock stopped working on the morning I was leaving, and some one had to open the door for me. Other than that, modern, clean place to stay

One to avoid
Having stayed at other Van Der Valk hotels I was expecting the same high level of standards I have experienced before. Not so ! This hotel is in desperate need of some investment. From entering the main accommodation block you are instantly hit with a stale musty smell of a dying building. The rooms are old and tied and in desperate need of upgrading. Even the room key is a physical key and not a modern and secure key-card. You have to re-lock your room from the inside. Breakfast can only be described basic and for EUR15 you'd certainly expect a lot more choice and freshness. Coffee from the machine was the highlight ! My colleagues room had a large centipede walking across the bathroom and the sink was half hanging off the wall. Overall, a very very disappointing experience and I wouldn't recommend. The following night I stayed at a different Van der Valk and it was perfect so I'm really surprised they have allowed this property to fall into such decline. It's in a great location.

Dear Philip, First of all, we apologize that your stay with us did not go as planned. I can imagine that this is definitely not pleasant. When the sink is broken, we need to ask our maintance to repair/fix it. Do not hesitate to contact our 24-hour reception if you experience any problems during your stay, so we can resolve this for you immediately. Beginning next year, we will start a big renovation in our separate building. What did you miss or want to add on our breakfast buffet? With best regards, Kitty

motel experience
This hotel is more like a motel. We stayed there because we had a party nearby. On the positive side there is a small fan. on the negative side there is no window to open & the bed is (too) soft. However, this is not the ritz but a motel. So all in all; what you pay is what you get.

Dear Mark, As you were staying in the motel part of the hotel everything you are saying is correct. That is why I would like to inform you that we also have a hotel section and for only 20 euros extra you have air conditioning, possibly a balcony and a room that is only 1 year old. Hopefully we will see yoiu again sometime! Kind regards.

Nice hotel which ticked most of the boxes. Road works going on atm so getting here was a challenge with road closures. Very comfortable and convenient. Just some constructive criticism.. the shower curtain / guard is not long enough so water spills on to the bathroom floor.. that could be a trip hazard. Other than that.. even although that.. i really enjoyed my stay.

Never agree to get a room on the outer wing especially in cold seasons. A chilled air flows through door/windows and main heater does not give enough warm.

Inadequate standard rooms. Breakfast okay.
Rooms are in a separate building but breakfast is in the main building (and it was pouring it down in the morning). The main building had been updated to a good standard. The other building not. The room was very humid and there were no windows to open. One could only ventilate the room by keeping the front door open but this felt very unsafe as other hotel guests (or outsiders) will pass or could enter. The entrance of the hotel is badly lit and we had to pass it several times (in the dark) before finding it. Breakfast was ok but we are used to much better in general at van de Valk hotels. No one checked if quantities needed replenishing. There were no clean breakfast bowls and no one was at hand to clear any tables. We ended up clearing one ourselves. Staff was friendly and quick to remedy the situation (the hotel might have been understaffed?).

Our favourite hotel!
Always stay at this hotel when we are in Belgium. Staff are great and the rooms were always nice but they have had a new part added and the rooms are stunning. Separate toilet to the shower room. All different lighting. Great big widescreen TVs and the beds are so comfortable. Lots of space and natural decor with balcony’s and fridges in room. One of our favourite hotels and always such a good price.

Road closed to hotel. Took us an hour to get in by way of detours. In the morning it was supposed to be open but it was blocked off again. Room was clean but stuffy so we used the fan most of the night. Overall disappointing.
