Great hotel with excellent facilities and access to the local area, I found it peaceful.
Pros:

Everything was excellent, ease of finding the location, parking and getting to the room. The room was superb with large walk in shower and deep fall in bath, including bubbles. Tea and coffee facilities and mini bar provided all we needed. Never used the bar but they were very accommodating for my tea with cold milk needs. Snacks at reception also. Bus stop close to entrance for travel to Ossterbeek and Arnhem, running on the hour.

Cons:

Maybe a single mattress not two, and also didn't like I only booked two nights, I should have book more.
