Find the Cheap Nijmegen Hotels

ZERO focus on service - it is all about squeezing every last penny out of visitors. Housekeeping refuse to change the towels - they ask for EXTRA MONEY to change towels. The rooms are €250 per night, but they only replace your towels for an extra fee. Greed hit a new low. They provide two old, thin, very very small, extremely poor quality towels for your entire stay. You’ll get better respect and service at a basic 2-star hotel. The condition of the room was also very poor. Damp/mould visible in the bathtub and the TV remote had old, stale food all over it. Bed linen torn, cheap and old. (See pictures) 🤢 This place needs to reevaluate how it operates and remember what service means. Everything they do is about squeezing that extra euro out of you.

This hotel is completely understaffed. It's ran by one front desk person who's never there, and a guy who's not in hotel uniform at night who plays poker with his rowdy friends in the lobby who doesn't want to help with anything. The AC does not work unless the outside temperature is above 18'C (for ”eco” reasons which is just a trick to save money of course). Meanwhile inside it's 25'C and you can not cool the room. There's no water bottles in the room. If you want to buy water, there's a vending machine, but you can't pay with bills or card. You need to pay with coins. If you ask the front desk for coins, he doesn't have coins of course. The cleaners did not clean for 2 days when we stayed for 4 days. So half the time there was no cleaning. Even when we explicitly asked the cleaners and front desk for cleaning and put the door sign up to clean. The gym has no weights, dumb bells, barbell. Just treadmill, bicycle, rowing machine. That would be okay, but it's not even cleaned once during our stay. It looks like this hotel chain is ran with the minimum staff and costs possible to maximize profits. But it's not a great experience. The building is functional and renovated and good though.

Great location at the river and in the center. Nice river view from small but comfortable rooms. The hotel is a former warehouse with lots of old details that add to the nice atmosphere. The whole building but also the breakfast and level of service represent the love of the host for his guests. Every hotel would wish such a great host.

I had a great stay here. Big room with a small kitchen, dinnertable and a sizeable bathroom. Everything clean and tidy. The room has a guesthouse feeling and not a bland hotel room appearance. Very helpful and nice staff. The guesthouse is in the middle of the city centre. 4 mins walk to the train station and 2 mins walk to the concert place Doornroosje, which was my purpose of the stay. One thing to note is that the reception is not staffed during night. If you need to check in or out after 18:00 you need to contact the staff beforehand. With your room card you can enter and leave the guesthouse at your will 24/7 so I had no problem with this arrangement. I will certainly book here again if I ever find myself in Nijmegen again.

I spent a Sunday and Monday night there; paid by my host (the university). Great choice on their part. The room was well appointed except for the somewhat small safe which would not accommodate my laptop. That said, the place is quite safe (access to the guest rooms via elevator that requires guest access card), so I just left it in the open. There's a coffee machine in the room and you can get extra capsules from the front-desk if need be. Toilet and shower are separate but, yes, as JapanGirl has mentioned, if you are not alone, you need to feel quite comfortable with your partner ... Wifi is stable and pretty fast, also on the ground floor/brekkie area, tv has some English language channels. Brekkie is fabulous and plenty. The ground floor is separated in about half a dozen areas and you can have brekkie in an ambiance of your choice. I had a colleague over for an hour to discuss one of her projects and ordered a cappuccino for her. When I wanted to pay for it, I was told that was fine. Everyone on the staff is super-nice and helpful. Good vibes. Really quite liked the place.

My week spent at the Hotel Pauw was good. It was located in the city of Nijmegen and was within walking distance of groceries and shops. It is very accessible to Primark, TKmax and other branded shops. The room was spotless. The only downside of this hotel is the poor and unstable Wi-Fi connection, and there was no room dining service. Although you can order food delivery, they did not allow it to be delivered to your room.

Bed was soft but comfortable as were the pillows. We were handed the key cards by a man sitting outside the hotel who then disappeared no staff in evidence till following morning. Safe in room was locked. Right in the pedestrian centre so unable to drive to the hotel. Parking in public car park 5 mins walk away. Charges only from 9am to 9pm. We arrived 7pm and overnight cast 10cents. Fine for an overnight stay. Despite being central the rooms were quiet.
