Anonymous Business travel: modern rooms in center of historic district

9 November 2011

+ Convenient to historic sites, old walking district, boutiques and cafes. Great restaurant in lobby. Clean and modern looking room and bath.

- Very noisy at night due to students and to the bar downstairs. Room quite uncomfortable to use: little closet space, no hooks in bath room, shower floor does not slope toward drain. No place nearby for breakfast if one does not want a hotel breakfast.

Francis Coleman A big surprise in a small package!!

+ I would say that the hotel is "hip", which does not appear on your list. The staff were great and very helpful to a visitor. The size of the room suprised me, they were bigger than expected. And they were very quiet and I did not hear the bustling restaurant scene.

- The wireless internet had spotty service. It worked better with my newer iPad than it did with my older (3 yrs) laptop.

Nick Good deal / location/quality for both business or personal

+ We enjoyed our stay very much.

- We were surprised at check out that the breakfast was charged whether we ate it or not. Adjustments were made, however, we would have preferred knowing in advance.

+ Really excellent service. The Wifi didn't work well, and in a split second a cable was brought for broadband.

- The furniture is very scanty. Our double room had only a single desk chair. On the other hand, they did quickly bring another chair (also a desk chair, though)

Anonymous Lovely spacious bright room.

+ Lovely large room with high ceilings and lots of light. Great location in quiet street but in middle of old town centre.

- Would have been good to have a bath and a bathroom without a window to see inside it! Breakfast quite expensive also. Wi-fi signal not good in room, and apparently not in most rooms but given connection lead for laptop.

+ We had a well appointed room with a nice bed and modern bathroom. The hotel is located a very short walk to the canals near the centre of Utrecht. Walking with luggage from the train station was easy.

Roberto Well situated in the historic centre, friendly staff and nice room

+ Location is superb, rooms are newly decorated and comfortable, breakfast is very good.

- Badly designed shower, no surfaces in the bathroom to put cosmetics, etc.

Gerlinde Bedö Nice pearl in the city centre

15 March 2009

9.2

+ fantastic ambience, new furniture, excellent bed, everything available, free Internet access (however nor used, as we were on a leisure trip), surroundings

- windows are not well isolating from cold and noise; breakfast was not included in price

Folgert J.H. Meijer New promising hotel, but they have still to learn a lot.

21 December 2008

5.4

+ The hotel has an excellent location to explore and enjoy Utrecht. The restaurant and bistro are really popular. We had a drinks and snacks in the bistro and that was good. We could get a taxi for 55 euro from the hotel to Schiphol, which is a bargain if you consider the Dutch taxi rates. Normally you have to pay double for that trip.

- It looks like staff and management have still to learn a lot about how to manage a hotel: the daily cleaning was done only for the half (e.g. service items from the restaurant were not picked up, shampoo and soap for the bath room, and mini bar items were not renewed, you could use the elevator only if it was not claimed by the hotel staff etc. The breakfast that the hotel offered was poor and without any ambition, but fortunately there were a lot of places around the hotel for having breakfast. Wireless internet is maybe possible if you can catch the signal from the router of the neighbors. They gave us a cable and that worked well. Our impression is that the Court knows very well how to run a restaurant and bistro, but has still to learn a lot about running a hotel business. Maybe they will learn that and than they can grow to one of the best hotels of the city.

B & RJ Cosy place in the heart of Utrecht

+ Hotel is very well situated in the heart of old town. Has a fancy restaurant - very busy, free internet connection. Friendly staff.

- The rooms could be maintained in a better way (loose handles on the door as well as cupboards).

Tramasure The place to have a nice stay!

+ The breakfast is great, lots of choices!!! The place is well decorated.

- We booked a room with bath and had a room with a shower (we didn't mention it because the shower was great!).

+ Friendly staff, large rooms, comfortable beds, great wet-room showers.

- Rooms on the street-side of the building were noisy - smokers and drinkers outside at night, and early-morning rubbish collection lorries. Windows need better sound insulation.

borghuis Nice place

+ clean, new, cool design, lively place

- noisy - thin walls.

Martin New and stylish but somewhat overpriced hotel in a central location

1 September 2008

6.6

+ - central (and theoretically rather quiet, but see below) location; perfect to explore the city - stylish modern, clean and well equipped rooms

- - given that this is a new hotel I would expect in this price range that doors and windows are more soundproof; note that there is a restaurant bar on the ground floor which adds to the noise level in the evenings -

cnn Excellent hotel

+ The hotel is beautiful and the room was large and comfortable. Wonderful bed, wonderful colors. Modern,beautifully urban, and spotlessly clean.

- There are only two minus points that kept the hotel from getting a 10 in service. These are housekeeping issues. First, there was no extra roll of toilet paper in the bathroom (a bit of a suprise when needed and there was no subsitute in the room such as facial tissues). The other housekeeping issue was that the linnens were all stored right in the hall at the elevator of floor three. This made the entrance to the floor look unsightly and congested.

Alan Francis Cyclists need not apply. Hard to find.

+ None

- We found it in the pouring rain after some searching because the name of the hotel is not displayed anwhere visible to the street, nor is its address. We did not stay because this hotel does not have any place to store bicycles. This is the only hotel or bed and breakfast we encountered in Netherland, the land where bicycles outnumber people, that could not accommodate bicycle touring people. The reception was totally unreceptive and unhelpful. We found another hotel in the center of Utrecht a few blocks away (Apollo) that took great care of us and our bikes, and was less expensive.

+ Very centrally placed with friendly and helpful staff. Clean and the bed was most comfortable indeed. The room was spacious and with plenty of storage space. Very competitive price so good value. Would visit again. Sally was very helpful with our check out and assisting with bags to the car.

- Despite asking, via e-mail, we were not provided with suggestions for parking and a route! I understand they are fixing this issue! However once we found the hotel, the helpful reception staff suggested the Kruisstraat Parking. Secure, only 10 mins walk away and 16:50 Euro per day great. Machine takes only 5 and 10 Euro notes - beware. No mirror for make-up but an image of Patty Hearst - Victim, Hostage and Convict!!!!

+ Bed excellent - large and very comfortable - and room spacious and attractively modern. Staff very pleasant and helpful.

- Minor details let down the overall standard - no tea/coffee facilities in the room, and having to ask for a second bedside table in a double room.

+ Bijzonder klantvriendelijke receptie. Heel net en verzorgd. Een adres dat je makkelijk als aanrader aan vrienden en familie doorgeeft. Een hotel zoals een hotel hoort te zijn. Een echt (oprecht!) aangenaam verblijf genoten.

- Nabijheid van kerk die voor 'geluidsoverlast 'verantwoordelijk is Maar laat het duidelijk zijn : de pluspunten van het hotel zijn van die aard dat een hotelgast deze overlast er echt wel bijneemt.

Hetty van der Burgt Super vriendelijk personeel, fijn hotel, lawaai aan straatzijde

+ in het centrum, heel vriendelijk personeel, netjes en verzorgt hotel, zou er volgende keer weer boeken maar dan alleen aan de achterkant van het hotel (i.v.m. geluidsoverlast en dat was niet eens in het weekend).

- Aan de staatkant erg veel geluidsoverlast vooral van jeugd en dat was niet eens in het weekend. Ze zouden geluidsdempend glas erin moeten laten zetten, dan is alles opgelost.

- ik heb zelf erg slecht geslapen door een bruiloft die die avond plaatsvond. Veel lawaai tot 1 uur 's nachts. De receptie doet af aan de rest van het hotel: erg krap en weinig open.

Roos Suurmond Geweldig weekend

+ Mooi hotel, lekker rustig en van alle gemakken voorzien. Erg vriendelijk personeel en heel erg schoon. De airco stond ook op een goede temperatuur aan toen we binnen kwamen. Wat ook erg fijn was gezien het een warme dag was.

- Het ene matras op het bed was harder dan het andere dus het lag op ongelijke hoogte. En als je achter elkaar of wat langer douchte liep de hele badkamer onder.

+ Dit hotel werd ons aangeraden door een vriendin en ons verblijf is goed bevallen. Nette kamer, snelle service bij receptie en ontbijtbuffet. We konden veel eerder inchecken dan op papier was vermeld. Goed te belopen na een feestje in het centrum van Utrecht.

+ Mooi aangekleed hotel. Prima prijs kwaliteit verhouding. Vriendelijk professioneel en jong personeel. Midden in het centrum van utrecht, 40 meter van de dom

- Ze hebben helaas geen parkeer garage.. Dus moet je elders parkeren. 24 uur is 32 euro maar daar hebben ze dan wel weer een reductie kaart voor bij het hotel. 27 euro betaal je dan voor 24 uur.

Sabine Papies Teuer, aber zentral und sehr gut

15 July 2010

+ Die Lage des Hotels ist angenehm zentral. Das Zimmer sehr schön, allerdings für 145€ ohne Frühstück auch teuer. Um ein ruhiges Zimmer zu bekommen, mußten wir diese Preiskategorie wählen. Das Frühstück war sehr gut, allerdings war der Service eher dürftig, für jede Tasse Kaffee mußte jemand vom Service gesucht werden.

- Der Service könnte verbessert werden. Mehr Personal einstellen?

Jorgos Stamou Leuk trendy hotel in hartje Utrecht

+ Leuk trendy hotel, hippe kamers (mooi strak ingericht, goede bedden), leuke kleursetting (paars). Geweldig buiten lounchen op het rechtbakplein. In hartje Utrecht. Prima bediening, leuk ontbijt voor een normale prijs.

- absoluut minpunt is dat de hele badkamer compleet blank komt te staan tijdens het douchen!! (tot aan de drempel van de deur). Daar moet echt wat aan gedaan worden.

Anonymous Mooi hotel in drukke, lawaaiige omgeving. Weinig nachtrust mogelijk.

+ nette kamer

- We hadden gevraagd om een rustige kamer. Er was zoveel lawaai buiten dat we tot vier uur in de nacht wakker hebben gelegen. Bij het uitchecken bleek dat er genoeg kamers aan de achterkant vrij waen die wel rustig gelegen zijn. Ze hebben alleen niet naar onze wens geluisterd. Niet klantgericht dus. We gaan hier nooit meer naar toe.
