“Pleasant”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 11 March 2007
1
person found this review helpful

We stayed at the Courage in Nijmegen for one night in February 108 Euro for a river-view room incl breakfast (parking garage 8Euro / day)

The hotel is located centrally next to the city’s casino on the river. In contrast to the kitsch lobby our room was decorated in classic style and colours. Newly refurbished it felt clean and pleasant. Although nothing truly special we would certainly recommend the hotel in comparison to any corporate chain hotel.

The evening’s desk clerk went out of his way to help us. He even printed out a detailed map describing the route to the restaurant we had chosen (het Savarijn – to be recommended - modern, comfortable 32,50 Euro 3 course).

Breakfast was of relatively good quality with a reasonable selection.

- paid public parking. It might be worth to inform at the hotel about the best option
- if you are driving make sure you have detailed directions the sign posts are not the clearests

“Brilliant setting, peaceful hotel”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 18 August 2006

Travelled by train through Holland: this hotel is a 10-15 minute walk from the station and an interesting walk too - though we didn't have much luggage which made it easier. The view over the park from our room was very pleasant, and although they only serve breakfast there are many places to find dinner/drinks just along the river bank.
Lots of different levels within the building so you need to concentrate walking around!
But even after an evening spent watching boats go by sitting at outside tables right by the river we got back with no accidents!
We would definitely stay there again if in the area.

  • Liked — location
  • Disliked — uneven flooring in places - need to concentrate
  • Tips/Secrets — Unless you plan to stay in the room a lot, its cheaper i think to look over the park - just as pleasant as the river which in any case you can sit out by!

“Personal Touch, Family Run”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 12 July 2006
1
person found this review helpful

Great location down by the river with great river views. The road was a little too loud to keep our window open all night, but the A/C was really good and quiet. Bathrooms were large and clean with a large shower. We loved sitting at cafes on the river or even in our room and watching the river barges heading up and down as the sun took its time setting over the river.

The Courage is family owned and run. They were very friendly and helpful. They also rent bicycles and there is an outstanding path along a dike (to Ooy) just upriver from the big bridge. It's also an easy bike ride to the University Medical Center if that is the reason for your stay in Nijmegen. Highly recommended.

“Still great.”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 14 May 2006

person found this review helpful

Stayed at Hotel Courage in 2004 after it had just opened. Having stayed there again recently, I was impressed that this hotel is still as clean and pleasant as it was 2 years ago. This is a small family run hotel and has a local charm to it. The hotel does not have a business center but does have wireless internet. Great breakfast is included. The hotel is located right on the river boulevard in the center of town. Lots of great places to eat and drink are mere steps away and the center of town is a couple of hundred feet away. Parking is problematic (as it is in the entire city) but ask the desk clerk as they can loan you a license to park in front of the hotel.
