Hotels Near Stedelijk Museum in Breda

Mijn man en ik keken uit naar een weekendje Breda. De kinderen eindelijk groter en de maatregelen rond covid waren eindelijk gaan luwen. Alles werd officieel bevestigd via een e-mail van het hotel. De boeking stond vast, 1 overnachting in jullie hotel met bijhorend etentje. Aangekomen in jullie hotel was er blijkbaar geen weet van onze komst. Eerst wouden ze de schuld in onze schoenen schuiven maar ze excuseerden zich snel wanneer we hen de bevestigingsmail van het hotel toonden. Ze toverden alsnog een vrije kamer voor ons, en dit tijdens het carnavalsweekend van Breda. Dit wisten wij niet (komende uit België). Toen we onze reservatie wouden maken voor ons diner, kregen we als antwoord, dat het restaurant was gesloten, wegens personeelstekort. Bij het lezen van oudere beoordelingen is dit een probleem dat er al enkele maanden heerst en nog steeds niet is opgelost, triestig voor zo een groot hotelketen. We konden wel ”carnaval take away” laten bezorgen op de kamer maar hadden ons wel iets anders voorgesteld bij een diner. We stelden voor, dat we zouden eten in de stad en de rekening zouden binnenbrengen, daar zouden we een maaltijd nuttigen binnen een normaal budget, dit voorstel werd geweigerd. De kok van het hotel kwam ons tegemoet en zou voor ons die avond koken, dit vonden we zeer fijn. Helaas kregen we gefrituurde kippenbouten en het hoofdgerecht op nog geen 30 minuten voorgeschoteld. Het moest snel gaan. De hoofdschotel was zeer teleurstellend. Schnitzel of zalm met wat gekookte boontjes en frieten. We konden ook geen wijntje bestellen aangezien de manager de alcoholische dranken achter slot en grendel had gezet. We mochten onze eigen fles wijn mee aan tafel nemen. We hebben elk 1 glas frisdrank genomen en daar werd schaamteloos een bedrag in rekening gebracht, die wij weigerden te betalen na alles wat er al misgelopen was. Hierdoor was het zaalpersoneel misnoegd. De manager was niet bereikbaar toen we hiernaar vroegen. We hebben genoten van de stad Beda, maar het verblijf eindigde in mineur. Het hotel had ons kunnen verwittigen dat het restaurant gesloten was. Het hotel kwam hierdoor heel onprofessioneel over.

I have had the most wonderful experience within you breakfast area with your breakfast chec Daniella. I have been to lots of hotels and for me the breakfast experience counts most. I asked Daniella to assist me with making egg mixed with mushrooms and some fresh chillies. Without any hesitation whe made sure to find what I needed without any effort by looking within your kitchen area. She made me feel welcoming and made sure I have what I need. I asked for a hot sauce as well and she made that possible as well. The reason why I say this that from the few van der valk hotels I have stayed has not made the effort at breakfast to make my needs feel as important as the stay. So I would like to tanks Daniella from the bottom of my heart for making this possible and going the extra mile for a avid van der valk customer. Will definitely come back because of her.

I booked this hotel again as we’ve liked it on previous trips for the Efteling. On this occasion we found the room to be very good with comfy beds, nice bedding, clean and stylish. What I would wish for at this price is some tea and coffee making facilities. It is ridiculous to have to go to the reception and buy coffee when you’ve paid quite a lot for the hotel. In the evening we ate in the hotel as a large group made up of 3 families. The food was excellent however when we came to pay we were very surprised that we could not split the bill. The bill was €200 so obviously no one wants to pay for all of that! We wanted to make one payment per family ie 3 payments to clear the bill. The staff member said we had to make only one payment in total because we had all sat together. She was a bit rude and we all found this very odd.

This is a nice clean property located in the heart of Tilburg. Getting around the city on foot from the hotel is simple. The staff at the hotel is warm and friendly, and are always ready to help. The rooms are clean and quiet - at least mine was as it was on the opposite side of the hotel from the street. The parking ramp isn't much to look at, but at least it's quiet. The breakfast was nice, with several hot and cold options. All in all, it was a nice hotel and offered good value.

We have chosen the hotel because of its location close to Rotterdam and the motorway. We had some work to do, so decided to take a Skyline Suite, so we had some space to sit and work. Regrettably the suites are made for a romantic outing. Being on the 13th floor there is no worry that somebody looks into the room. The hotel also takes an extra € 150 as bond, in case you make a mess of the room. There is a separate toilet. The bathroom area is huge. Two wash basins and lot of space, regrettably there were no glasses available. We used the carton coffee cups to drink from. A huge batch in an open area, which was not used. An open room again with 2 showers and ‘rainforest’ shower heads in the ceiling. The water pressure was not high enough to really make them work. Also no towel rails or towels provided in that room. So - unless you were prepared - you had to walk into the space with the bath in , to get towels. Only 2 towels are provided, large enough to wrap a child in… but not big enough for an adult. The quality was inferior and not nice big and fluffy for a room with so many water features. Again only 2 larger towels so if you wanted a bath and a shower, you had to use a wettish towel for the second use. No table where you could use a room service meal , nor decent chairs. No desk either, instead a make table with a big mirror. Two lounge chairs, where you can only lie in, next to the bed where you can lie in. The bed is big, but the mattress did not fit the bed! On both sides you had 15 cms space. The room has a coffee machine, with 4 coffee pods. So you’d better not be a coffee drinker. A small fridge is also present, with 2 small bottles of water, so no min bar!! For a room which costs over € 300 this can be used as a nice romantic getaway with your secret friend … but bring your own ice box, towels and coffee!!

The room is very spacious, very big, clean and tidy, the restaurant is also delicious
