"Excellent location, with easy access to everything. The facilities were modern and comfortable, and the breakfast offered a great variety and was very enjoyable."
BBinglvchaThe hotel is close to the central station, the rooms are spacious, and the breakfast is good, with smoked salmon. The service is also excellent; the staff are friendly, and luggage storage is free. I've stayed in hotels for over 20 days while traveling in Europe these past two years, usually choosing three- or four-star hotels since five-star ones are out of my budget. This is the first hotel I've ever seen that provides five items in the bathroom: shower gel, shampoo, conditioner, hand soap, and body lotion. I was practically moved to tears! Oh, and there's a pair of disposable slippers too, which is a rare treat. Park Plaza Utrecht, you'll be etched in my memory!
GGuest UserExcellent location with easy access to the train station and walking distance to city centre and Exhibition halls. Umbrellas available from hotel in case of rain showers. Great breakfast served in ground floor
SSonya ZhangIt is nice place to stay for personal trip with friends and family, nice decoration, and people nice too, but it is a little far away from the station and town. However, it takes 20 min. for walk.
GGuest UserThe apartment hotel is useful for independent travelers. The rooms have both bedroom and a well equipped kitchen if you choose to shop and prepare your own food.
The bathrooms are on the small side, but functional.
The rooms are serviced only every four days, so make sure you dry your towels
Facilities at the hotel include a bar restaurant, but this was often taken over by local events and parties - without any notice. There are not so many restaurants in easy reach of here.
Overall, it’s a great base and although 4km from the city, there are very frequent direct buses and taxis
GGuest UserThis hotel's location is quite good: about 10 minutes walk from Utrecht Central Station and next to a long street with shops (including food and Albert Heijn supermarket). The building itself is very charming and beautiful. While I was there, renovations were ongoing. This did not disturb me at all, except that the available signage to the reception was not sufficiently clear and there was no signage from the reception back to the exit. The hotel staff was friendly and seems to care about the hotel guests. However, the hotel room itself was poorly designed. The room was very cold as it only has a single air conditioning unit that serves as heating. This is inappropriate for the Netherlands given the humid and cold winter climate. The first night, I almost got no sleep because of this. The lack of warmth seems to be a common issue in the hotel given that another hotel guest reported heating in their room not working when I checked in. The room's floor is also very cold, and no slippers are provided (can't wear shoes inside as it was raining and the whole room would get wet as the room did not have a doormat). Another issue is that the room is tiny but also badly designed so that there is no proper space to actually sit and read a book or get some work done (I was traveling for work). My room was on the ground floor with big windows on both sides, which meant I needed to choose between zero privacy (open curtains) or a dark room (closed curtains). There was also quite a bit of noise coming in from outside the hotel. In the bathroom, there is no shower curtain, which means that the toilet gets completely wet once you take a shower, which is pretty inconvenient, especially given that only one big towel and one small towel is provided, so that I had no tools to dry the toilet after the shower (and again, without slippers, my feet would get wet going to the toilet, which is also not convenient). Altogether, unfortunately, I cannot recommend this hotel, even though I had been looking forward to my stay there as I had heard it is a beautiful place.
GGuest UserThe price of the hostel is exorbitant, to say the least, considering the soap in the room was out, my room wasn't made up, my towels weren't changed, the shampoo was two sachets, and the windows couldn't be opened. I can't fault the central location, but I paid exactly double what I paid in Eindhoven, Rotterdam, and The Hague, where I've stayed in much better hotels.
