Best Hotels near John Bardale, Zutphen

Erg prettig verblijf gehad in dit fijne hotel. Het gebouw is prachtig en ademt geschiedenis. Het is niet gehorig en we hebben heerlijk geslapen. Zeer comfortabel ook dat het in het centrum gelegen is. Bij terugkomst deden we nog een roséetje in de Brasserie. Heel fijn. We dachten even last van de kerkklokken van de naastgelegen kerk te gaan hebben, maar die staan zo zachtjes afgesteld dat je ze nauwelijks hoort (als ze op het hele en halve uur slaan). Op zaterdagmiddag luidden ze even volop, maar dat doen ze kennelijk alleen bij een speciale mis of gelegenheid. Parkeren kun je voor de deur, maar dat is wel prijzig. Het is eenvoudig om een stukje verderop te parkeren tegen een veel lager tarief. Zutphen is zeer goed ingericht met veel parkeergelegenheid om het centrum heen zodat je in de binnenstad weinig last hebt van autoverkeer. Zutphen zit vol verrassingen en je vindt mooie dingen om iedere hoek. Wij hebben genoten.

Beautifully decorated inside, loads of space in the room. The staff were really friendly and helpful, ready to advise on any tourist information. Plenty of choice for breakfast (included in the price). We had lunch and dinner while we were there. Outstanding. Tasty and beautifully presented. They had a special surprise for dad on his birthday. It's in a very quiet, nature area. Not too far to explore the really pretty towns like Deventer and Apeldoorn. Very enjoyable stay.

Just a short (thankfully downhill) walk from the railway station (extensive rail and bus services give easy access to almost anywhere in the Netherlands) the hotel is an even shorter walk from the north bank of the Nederrijn with its shady walks and numerous restaurants. Very handy as there is no restaurant at any IHG Express. As I arrived mid-morning the room was not ready but the staff (more about them later) were happy to store my case until I returned that afternoon (and again after checkout before leaving on an afternoon train). The room itself was a good size with a large comfortable bed, a functional desk and chair and a comfortable chair. Air conditioning kept the temperature stable and the lighting was good - not the ”fashionable” near darkness of some. Bathroom was good with a spacious shower. Everything was spotlessly clean. Coffee and tea available. Breakfast is the only meal offered and is a fairly basic standard european offering. Meats, eggs and cheeses were adequate, yoghurt good, fresh fruit salad very good indeed. Coffee was machine provided and good with a variety of offerings. No hot options (standard with the Express brand) and I did not try any of the other cold choices. Although fairly centrally located with easy access to shops and all the usual facilities and infrastructure the room was quiet and peaceful. An Albert Heijn mini-supermarket opposite attracted small groups in the evening but was not a bother - indeed very useful for an occasional small purchase. All standard and as expected for the brand so why mark it excellent? I will come back to the staff who were unfailingly excellent - helpful, cheery and friendly (though never less than professional) and recognised me by the end of day 1. A credit to the hotel and its management. This is now my first choice when next in the vicinity

Every time I drive my partner to Holland we look for a Van der Valk hotel whatever our destination because we know exactly what to expect .. High standard quality of service , amenities , food, interior design .. and above all friendly and competent staff .. Hotel van der Valk Apeldoorn is no exception...Nice pool , very large and comfortable design room , very comfortable box spring bed, pet friendly hotel , a nice park nearby to walk your dog , and above all the famous van der Valk breakfast ... Smoked Salmon , muffins, various kinds of bread , croissants, cheeses , marmalades , waffeln with cherries marmalade , cold cutts.... and of course scrambled eggs with bacon or omelette ...

The hotel is located directly opposite the Arnhem Railway Station, and it is especially convenient to travel to other places. There are many restaurants, bakeries, famous food supermarkets in the Netherlands along the street downstairs, so life is also quite convenient. By the way, if you arrive at Arnhem by train for the first time, remember to go out to the underground floor. The two of us stupidly picked up our luggage and chose to take the elevator up and out of the station. As a result, we looked at the train station and the hotel. We walked around a big circle and actually went down the station. Go to the train station gate, the hotel is 100 meters from the gate If the hotel of the same grade is in Amsterdam, the price will be more than double. We consider working near Arnhem the next day, so we still choose to stay in Arnhem. The money saved is used for transportation and more than enough to eat a big meal. If you go to Amsterdam, take the train to Amsterdam Central Station in 1 hour, and there is a corresponding train to Schiphol Airport. The breakfast at the hotel was very delicious and the mattress was very comfortable... Overall, we were quite satisfied.
