Wouldn’t call it a luxury hotel BUT nice and spacious outdoors, extremely helpful staff, surrounded by middle eastern neighborhood with great food, short walking distance to the central of the city. Small rooms though with little ventilation but the outside space made up for this. Free sparkling water which was a great treat.

Single rooms are cramped and very expensive for what you're getting. Location of the rooms is not great as they are on the ground floor between the communal outdoor lobby and car park which means it can be noisy at night.

However, it is clean, modern and breakfast is good.

Property is nice and some renovations was still going on. The kitchen essentials were not provided and we had to ask for salt and pepper. If you are planning to cook, would recommend a quick grocery run after check in. Pots and pans provided were only 1 each.We were offered a room which was in an area getting renovated and the corridor didn’t look good at all. After talking to the staff, they offered a different room quickly. My point was why would you even offer someone that kind of room where the corridor and other stuff still needs to be work on.

The hotel does not match its online photos and appears to still be undergoing renovation. The exterior courtyard currently contains large dumpsters, and the main entrance / yard area is completely inaccessible.

Inside, the property shows visible wear: hallway walls are chipped and scratched, elevator lighting is very dim, and sound insulation between rooms is minimal.

In our room, there were exposed screw holes in the walls, and some fixtures (like the doorbell) were damaged. Basic amenities such as a hairdryer were only provided upon request, and there was no in-room phone to contact the front desk.

Check-in was slow due to high volume, and while additional staff eventually assisted, the process remained inefficient.

If the current condition of the hotel had been accurately represented, expectations would have been different. However, given that it is marketed and priced as a four-star property, the experience feels misleading in its current state. It would be more appropriate to align pricing and branding with the condition until renovations are complete.

Disappointed with the location and it did not appear as in the photos. Stains on rugs, no cushions, horrible smell of urine in bathroom.

The surroundings for The Anthony hotel are not that quiet. A zooming noise during the night was very unpleasant, also people smashing loud with doors during midnight. Further on, the room (12m2) for one person is really small but has everything inside it. The breakfast wasn't that handy with all the stuff on different spots in another room. The last thing: 147,52 for one night with breakfast including toerist tax and handling fee for Expedia is really expensive

Cannot complain about the hotel / staff and an outstanding breakfast. it was quiet, clean and close to the city central area and unique been a converted convent. The rooms are really lacking a few features: Nowhere to use a laptop, the table was so small, nowhere to dry cloths, really small cups, but provided a coffee pod machine, cables to TV were so ugly just hanging out of the wall. The comfortable bed was placed far to close to the curtains making it hard get in and out of. It would not take much to lift the rooms.

Upscale hotel and an enjoyable stay

Wonderful building and a very classy experience. The staff were good.

There was open-air lock up for our bikes which isn't ideal but at least they were round the back.

Lovely room though no USB outlets.

Breakfast was great and we were looking forward to dinner but the quail was undercooked and my dish wasn't hot enough. The waitress was very apologetic and tried to make it up to us. Apparently they were still trying to find a long-term chef. The rest of the meal was good.

The hotel isn't absolutely in the center of Utrecht but that wasn't too much of a problem. We were able to walk in even though I have mobility problems. (I had no problems in the hotel itself.)

We were disappointed by our stay at The Antony Hotel. The Anthony sells itself as a 4 star hotel and prices itself as such. We, therefore, had pretty high expectations for our stay. However, it currently can’t seem to get some of the basics right. Air con in some of the rooms doesn’t work properly (you can get it on for short bursts before an error message appears on the screen and it turns off). When we informed reception, we were simply told that this was known issue and were given a fan instead which is obviously not the same. The fridge in our room also didn’t work (light came on but it was hotter inside than out so obviously couldn’t keep anything cool). Despite mentioning this to reception on two separate occasions and asking for it to be fixed/ replaced no action was taken (at which point we gave up!). The hotel also provided a baby bed which was fine for our toddler but you wouldn’t want it for a baby as it had an ill-fitting, sloping mattress. And, finally, it’s worth noting that not all family rooms have the advertised (and pictured) separate seating area. Instead, some of them have a bed next to the seating area.

On the plus side, most of the staff were very friendly, especially the breakfast staff, and the breakfast itself was great.

OK apartments, could be better

We stayed in the apartments. The stairs are very steep and there is a gap at the top of the stairs, where a small child could fit through and fall (there is also no child safety barrier at the bottom of the stairs to prevent small children from climbing up). I would not recommend anyone for children below 3 years old to stay in the apartment for this reason. There is also no air-conditioning on the upper floor where the main bedroom is located. It is probably OK for the cooler months, but we stayed there in August and the room was very hot and not very pleasant to sleep in. We stayed for 6 nights and were told that changing of bed sheets / cleaning would occur every 5 days, but we did not see anyone. Other than that, the location was good, the apartment was well-equipped with cutlery, coffee machine etc and the wifi worked well.
