excellent location. helpful and friendly staff. convenient rooms. good breakfast. very good value for money.

This hotel is very well located downtown and close to Central station. Rooms are quite small but well equipped and cosy. The staff is really nice.
The only negative points I found are the rate and the breackfast which is not at the right level of quality.

The location of this hotel is ideal for a visit to Utrecht, immediately adjacent to the university and near a range of quaint shops and restaurants. Rooms are somewhat small but comfortable, with many power outlets and adjustable light features. We were given a first floor room which unfortunately smelled a bit like sewage when the windows were open and also let in a good bit of noise from the streets. No room service or vending machines, though the rooms are equipped with small refrigerators. Some of the desk clerks were friendly and helpful, others a bit snarky and condescending. The restaurant and cafe attached to the hotel are good options for lunch, dinner or a drink.

We just stayed one night in this hotel. I was impressed by the exterior and it wasn't a far walk from the train station (a bus stop is just outside as well). However, I thought the reception could have been doing with a revamp. As for the room itself, it was fine although a bit gloomy. I was also a bit cold at night as the duvet is a bit on the thin side for winter. To be fair, I didn't ask reception for another one. I know they do offer a selection of pillows though.

As for the vicinity, the hotel is not far from the hussle and bustle. The cathedral is also not far away and I would recommend visiting the interior, and taking a tour of the Dom Tower (views from the top were amazing.... 8 euros a ticket). As for eating and drinking there is plenty of choice. We had dinner at a place called Olivier, a Belgian restaurant which was once a church. The food was decent and the choice of beers amazing. Sevice was decent enough too. If you like art/pictures, go to the shop 'Catch' beside the cathedral. It stocks a great collection of stuff.
