Perfecte locatie voor een relaxt weekend weg in de natuur.
Pros:

Locatie was voor ons perfect. Je loopt zo de bossen in of de Veluwe op. Uitgebreid ontbijt inclusief glutenvrij en vegetarisch. Vriendelijk personeel. Je bent ook zo in Apeldoorn Centrum of bij Paleis 't Loo.

Cons:

De verduisterende gordijnen zijn niet volledig verduisterend. Mijn partner is daar gevoelig voor. Gelukkig heeft ze wel redelijk kunnen slapen omdat de bedden zeer comfortabel zijn.a

Heel fijn, ook met een jong gezin
Pros:

Heel erg genoten van het zwembad, de sauna en het heerlijke ontbijt.

Cons:

De airco in de kamer heeft z'n beste tijd gehad, we verbleven hier tijdens een hittegolf en de kamer was helaas erg warm. We hadden wel twee ventilatoren tot onze beschikking, dat scheelde.

Comfortabel, betaalbare luxe met veel gastvrijheid en fijn personeel!
Pros:

Alle medewerkers waren buitengewoon vriendelijk, alert, pro-actief en écht gastgericht. Wat een gave ervaring, en chapeau want wat is dat knap als het zo druk is én de temperatuur tm de avond +30 graden is!
De koffie/thee- en fruitwatervoorziening in de lobby van het hotelgedeelte is ook echt heel attent en gastgericht.
De kamers zijn zeer royaal, goede airco, geluidsdicht, fijne Bluetooth radio connectie én een verrukkelijk en veelzijdig ontbijt. Ik ben fan van Van der Valk Apeldoorn de Cantharel (en dat terwijl velen denken... dat is toch zo'n oude vd Valk ;-))

Cons:

Niets, alleen maar lof

We hadden een kamer boven de afzuiging van de keuken, dat raasde de hele nacht door. Veel hinder van ondervonden.
