I stayed in the Golden Tulip from the 18th- 21st June with Friends and was there to attend the British rock Band 'Muse's' concert in Nijmegen on Saturday 19th. The Hotel is lovely, modern and clean and set on lovely grounds in the countryside just outside the City. The rooms themselves were comfortable, spacious and were cleaned every Day. There was no charge to use the Safe provided (well done!) but would be a little concerned at the small Balcony Fence of the Apartments considering how tall the Dutch are and I'm only 5"10! Elsewhere the Hotel Bar was friendly and well stocked !. The Contintental Breakfast Buffet was tasty and took care of the Appetites of 4 hungry Irishmen. We all slept like Logs in a nice quite relaxing Hotel and did I forget to mention the Staff? They were all nice, helpful, polite and efficient and did not mind our lack of Dutch. All in all, we got very good value for our Money and this is one Hotel I would be very happy to stay in again. Thanks to all there.

We stayed one night and frankly could have stayed a few more simply for the "get-away" nature of the hotel. Surrounded by green and gardens, the hotel allowed us to relax and sleep peacefully. We had gone to meet a relative who was traveling with a group and was staying there - thus, we had expected an institutional atmosphere but were pleasantly surprised.

What other reviewers disliked- I FOUND APPEALING! While on an auto tour of Europe in many towns and cities, for our one night stay, this nice, peaceful place in the the woods was a pleasant change. If you wish to see the city of Nijmegen, and have no car, STAY IN THE CITY! I found the staff friendly, the good food was better than at chain-hotels. The spacious room was a comfortable simplicity...not luxury, but not worn out and cheap. The view of the large front lawn with gardens and a pond and tall trees was inspiring.

I am not one of the "old and retired guests" that others refer to in reviews about this hotel, but I do not need, desire or use a mini-bar, don't need to drink at a hotel bar until midnite (I'll go out to a real club!), and my tv doesn't need to be a 42 inch plasma.

This hotel is set in the woods around Nijmegen, in Berg en Dal. The hotel was perhaps nice several decades ago, but now has a very institutional feel. The restaurant is trying to be formal, but the food is average, and it closes at 21:00. The bar was able to have a ham & cheese sandwich made up for me, but was very basic. (Room service was also only ham& cheese). The service is fine, but the hotel there are no restaurants to walk to and very little to drive to without driving back into Nijmegen. Wifi is very expensive (€20/day) and the connection is VERY slow. The room is functional, but overall I felt that I was in some sort of dorm facility. All-in-all, a bit depressing.
