Pros:

Ligging

Cons:

Muffe klamme kamer . Zelfs de lakens en het toiletpapier waren klam . Er kon geen raam open dus je kon het ook niet verhelpen . Het geld absoluut niet waard .

Just wasn’t able to rest this time. Hope to be able next time on the 28th of October as I always have before although I
Pros:

I stay there twice every other month and honestly I love everything

Cons:

I stayed one night to be able to rest because my mother was going to get operated The room Q1218 was great until the noise from the air conditioner was loud and I couldn’t sleep so had to call. The staff was very nice and sent someone fast. But I had to move at pm to another room on the 11th floor

I will be back though on tha room in the old tower in the 28th because on the new tower the room went up because of the boat show

Amazing location, price, and staff. 10/10 recommend!
Pros:

The room was comfortable, clean, and quiet. We were told there was a wedding reception on the floor below us but never heard a peep. We had a great view of the river and the bed was very comfortable. The staff was very friendly and helped us print our luggage tags for our cruise the next day. The location was fantastic and was in walking distance of everything you could need. I will definitely be back and have already recommended this hotel to others!

Cons:

The pool was closed for rennovations, which was disappointing as it was a very hot day and we were looking forward to relaxing in it.

Very good
Pros:

The hotel is exceptionally beautiful, the location is great.

Cons:

The staff at the Boathouse Restaurant was rude and could have explained the reservation requirement more politely and clearly. We understand that a reservation may be necessary, but the way it was communicated made the experience unnecessarily unpleasant. A more courteous explanation would have made a big difference.
