We stayed here also a year ago and the hotel has definitely taken a turn for the worse. They have removed the front desk and replaced it with self check in iPads. Whoever thought of this should be fired immediately: a hotel relies on its personal touch and human interaction. I’m young and able, but no guest arriving after a long journey wants to fill out info on an iPad! Everything about our stay felt cheap. The hallway to our room was freezing. The duvets are so thin that we called (from our cell phone because there’s no phone in the room) for a second duvet, the floor in the bathroom is unheated and freezing, and I could go on. Our son with baby had a second room and they informed us in advance that they charge extra for a baby cot (unacceptable). There’s a coffee station in the lobby and it says with big letters that if you’re a guest staying in the hotel, you’re not allowed to use this coffee station (also unacceptable). It’s Christmas but not a festive chocolate in sight (I could swear there were chocolates last year at the front desk!). No welcome note or welcome gift in the room. Everything about our stay said that this hotel is past its prime and won’t survive. Our stay was just mediocre at best. One positive: the gin and tonic with berries in the bar is fabulous and the bartender was great (tip for the hotel: keep him).

the stay was good as always but be aware of following payment problem:
When you pay in advance via Expedia, the hotel will require a full payment again during the internet check-in.
Only when you ignore the complete electronic check-in via the net, you will have to pay the remaining local tax and “service” charge.
So don’t respond to their continuous requests to check in up front when you have made a payment vie Expedia.
It is an known error in their reservation system, so be aware!

Generally excellent, few minor niggles

Stay was generally good although Hotels.com didn't inform me that the pool was closed for renovation. The online room guide you're sent to suggests you can request different pillows but reception looked at me like it was the weirdest request and just said \"all the rooms have the same pillow\".

Bathroom, while clean and absolutely fine, doesn't match the high decor standard of the rest of the room and the showerhead had a lot of timescale on but not a deal-breaker for me. Shampoo and conditioner don't really lather but that's probably hard water (causing aforementioned limescale).

Room itself was nice, well decorated with a nice balcony. The sofa was particularly excellent for a hotel and very welcome. Staff were pleasant and helpful (except for the pillow situation). TV was good and Chromecast a nice feature although lacked instructions how to activate it. Air conditioning worked well in the heatwave. One minor maintenance issue with a wardrobe hinge but didn't impact me.

Hotel itself is in a lovely neighborhood but is just that but too far from the city centre for my preference.

Overall a good place to stay with a few minor drawbacks. We're it closer to the city centre I'd happily stay again at the price I paid.

comfortable hotel very close to Het Loo palace

The hotel was situated on the edge of Apeldorm in walking distance to Het Loo palace. The room was spacious and comfortable. The breakfast and dinner were amazing. The staff were very kind and helpful. The environment was quiet and calm.
Please note to have your room cleaned you have to scan a bar code and request it. The swimming pool was still under renovation. There is a little bus outside the hotel which takes you to the central train station and there was ample car parking.

The Hotel has introduced the self-check-in Terminal: Scan the QR Code, fill some details and receive your room key out of the machine, after you have paid for the tax and SERVICE CHARGE. This is outrageous: why should I pay €7,50 extra for self-service. It’s like a waiter who expects a tip when you order take-away food at a counter. I was so disappointed about this change from High level hotel to a Stay-OK hostel, but still charging full price. BTW, when I asked one of the staff members about this non-service charge, he didn’t know a decent answer and responded: “it’s for the pollution”??????????

Stayed here before, prior to room renovations. Jr-Suite was delightful, like having a small apartment (no kitchen). Tastefully decorated, very comfortable bed and good size bathroom with bath and glass enclosed shower. Balcony with two chairs. Quiet, very pleasant hotel, caters to groups & meetings plus tourists visiting Paleis het Loo. Also close to Kroller-Mueller Museum. Dinner good, breakfast buffet good (great breads, mediocre scrambled eggs). Very good price to value. Parking should be free, or built-into the room price! Bilderberg has very good quality hotels.

Noises

This hotel was very nice, but we couldn’t sleep. We paid more for a balcony room and heard a fairly loud thumping noise coming from the heating vent area all night, which kept us totally awake. We finally, after many hours, decided the noise must be coming from the heating pipe for the window radiator— we had turned on the radiator just before bed because it was rather chilly — so we turned off the radiator. When the woman at the desk asked us the next morning how everything was, we complained about the noise and how it had gone on all night — she answered flippantly— “Oh, it was probably just your neighbors!”

Hotel absolutely fine apart from the basin lacking a plug. Hotel staff really good. Excellent breakfast. However, there appeared to be an attached eateries accessed directly from the hotel called Cafe Rosa which we assumed was where an evening meal was taken. Only later did we find out it was a cash-only operation which meant one of us walking to a local bank to obtain the necessary cash. Staff took very little interest in us and the order and food took ages. One particular young lady was surly to the point of being rude. A rather unhappy experience throughout.

Great hotel, top service, amazing food!

Our stay was great from start to finish. The staff at the front desk were friendly and very helpful in English. The room was large, comfortable and clean with all amenities you could want on a trip like this. We had a balcony and that was a highlight, leaving the door open at night to hear the wind rustling through the trees.

The hotel has a restaurant attached and it is beyond fantastic. The food (dinner in our case) is exceptional by any standards, with fantastic service and a bill that's smaller than you'd expect for such quality.

Bike rental is a bit on the high site (12.50 euro per day), so if you're coming in via train and public transport you might want to rent an OV Fiets at the station, cycle to the hotel (10 to 15 minute cycle) and return the Fiets when you leave Apeldoorn.

Enkel basic zeep in badkamer, geen sewing kit, douchekap...Receptiepersoneel dat niet eens moeite deed even te knikken toen we voorbijkwamen.Men vroeg ons dan ook nog met aandrang om de kamer niet te moeten schoonmaken omwille van het milieu maar er werd echter niets in de plaats gedaan bv een boom planten.
