Staff denied our early request for a queen bed and gave us inferior, small room with rooftop slope so staff could favor travel group reservations for one night in spite of our 3 night booking.

Staff were fantastic at reception and the bar. Our room had no air conditioning, the bed mattress needs replacing and there was dirt and dust along the wall. The refrigerator did not work and we lost valuable food as a result.

Nice hotel in Harderwijk
Spent 2 days in this hotel for a business trip. Location is great in the middle of the city close to the sea. Room is comfortable (despite absence of A/C - but we are in NL and it does not get hot very often). Breakfast is just ok, nothing exceptional. Nice and friendly personnel.

Nice hotel, housekeeping needs improvement
This was a nice hotel in a charming Dutch village. The staff was nice, but for the price we paid I expected a bit more from the housekeeping staff. There was a broken cookie on the floor by the bed the day I entered the room and one of the coffee cups was dirty/had been used. I stayed for a week and the housekeeping staff came in almost everyday, but the broken cookie crumbles were still on the floor the day I left. The coffee cup stayed dirty until I moved it to a different table. Just seems they must clean the rooms in a hurry and don't pay much attention.

Hotel is very close to Dolphinarium for that we booked this hotel. For best western brand we had high expectations about the cleaniness and comfort shame it was not the case. The corridor carpets had big stains and in general it was worn out at places. Rooms exhaust not working , complained on first day and nothing was done. Pillows were hard and size of hay bale. In all not very impressed.

The best Best Western
I have never stayed in a more welcoming and friendly hotel. The staff are superb and incredibly helpful. The food is excellent, as is the service. The room was clean, spacious and very comfortable. The location is very central. I will stay again next time I am in the area.

Excellent short stay
I stayed at this hotel for 3 nights. Staff: The staff were very welcoming and spoke very good English. They answered any queries I had with expertise. Room: The room, given the very low price was very spacious with a good size bathroom. It was maintained well during my stay. Food: The best bit though were the meals. I always try something different to eat except this time. The steak meal I had was simply excellent with a well cooked steak and delightful various accompagnements. I thought it was so good I had exactly the same the following night. The venison I had for my third night was just as good. Breakfast was very good with a wide range of fare. Altogether a great stay and i will probably return there should i find myself in that part of the world again. It did offer free parking however that was not very close so I chose the garage parking for which there was a smallish charge. Location: Right in the centre of town so excellent. Lots of quaint shops and a beach.
