The former palace, now the hotel, exudes a leisurely atmosphere from the inside out. The hotel is located in the old town of Utrecht. It is very convenient to go everywhere. There are ample parking spaces. It is worth staying and experiencing.

It would have been so nice but. Beautiful suite with all what we need. But unfortunately, I didn't sleep. Mattress too soft, too warm under the cover and too cold outside. Heard the neighbors at 5 am talking normally just behind the wall... Breakfast amazing.

Beautiful large room and bathroom decorated in old but tasteful style. Very friendly staff who kindly arranged some laundry for me even though they don’t normally offer on the weekend. The key for me was the bar and bistro - it was cold and wet outside and these were cosy, friendly with excellent food, wine and service. A truly treat experience.

Kost wat, maar dan heb je ook wat! Alles klopte, keurige ontvangst, mooie kamer, welness goed geregeld en een geweldig ontbijt. Het pand is echt schitterend, de kamers en het restaurant zijn wel wat klassiek, maar wel heel netjes en schoon. Prima bed!
