    A very pleasant stay

    Very charming hotel, big and confprtable rooms, very nice staff, very enjoyable breakfast(the view is cute too) The whole atmosphere is a pleasure Plus the area is very calm which feels great too 10 minutes walk and you re in the active city center, perfect

    Nothing.

    “My tip: For architects, the Schroder (Rietveld) villa is around 15 minutes walk from the hotel. We alsi enjoyed the local cafes. Good to know is also that there is a supermarket close to the area ”

    The location.

    We have stayed at this hotel 3 times before and found it earlier simple but nice to the price. This time we had brought two friends with us. We got two terrible rooms under the roof. Unisolated very cold. The recept. who recieved us on the 28 of November in the afternoon fairly early(3 pm.) was unkind . We told him that we had stayed there before and expected the same service. Last time we payed about 80 Euro for a much better room, this time it was about 125, all too much. The next day a fri

    Highly recommended, friendly staff, very well run, value hotel

    Super Friendly & Helpful Staff, Rooms v comfortable & clean, Good breakfast menu plus free tea & coffee maker in reception. I genuinely liked this hotel & its service - a little away from town centre but in a v quiet, green and restful area. But easy to either use tram or bus into town (in minutes) or as I mostly did, just walk (10-15 mins max). I really recommend this hotel - no muss, no fuss, it really just works.

    Not for me, but steep stairs could be issue for less mobile people. (The steep stairwells are v. common in older Dutch urban buildings). But I was in top of building, so may not be problem for rooms on lower floors - may need to enquire.

    I recommend Oorsprongpark

    Clean and peaceful. Good spot and a beautiful part of the city.

    I could hear the next door (?) naighbor taking a shower and listening to radio. It wasnt too bad and the other residents were really quiet and this is the problem almost in every hotel. But for your information. It would have been nice to have fresh fruits or berries in the breakfast.

    “My tip: The restaurant in the next door (Mar?) was surprisingly good. ”

    A decent hotel for a 60 euro

    A decent breakfast is included. We arrived about an hour before check-in and were able to go straight to the room, which was nice.

    The rather narrow (apparently typical Dutch) stairs.

    Ideal stopover if your daughter/son is at Universiteit Utrecht

    Friendly staff. Ideal location between the city and Uithof where I had taken my daughter. Quiet and comfortable. I was surprised to get ensuite for the price. I hope to come back with my wife in October if the price is right.

    I like a very hard bed so the very soft beds were not so good for me. I asked if I could book again in October but the prices are nearly double.

    “My tip: Bring your bicycle or rent one straight away to enjoy Utrecht in full - I brought my Brompton folder. It's possible but difficult to park outside. The Westraven secure park and ride is easy to reach and only E4.65/day with tram/bus [or 20 min cycle] to the hotel. ”

    my main criticism is that the hotel is musty and smelly. I stayed on a warm and balmy evening and couldn't fully open the windows. The stale and unpleasant fusty smell in my room was overpowering and unpleasant.

    Good service, good location

    Excellent breakfast. Room was very light and enjoyed the free coffee during the day. Excellent bus service into the centre of Utrecht and a goods are on the street corner.

    Narrow staircase. Very narrow mattress. When I turned over I fell out of bed and the mattress landed on top of me!

    “My tip: Do not have heavy luggage which needs to be taken up the narrow staircase”

    This was a clean, comfortable room with a delicious breakfast.

    The beds are comfortable and the room is clean. There is good water pressure and lots of hot water. The breakfast is delicious.

    The room is very small. Internet was not reliable.

    “My tip: Be aware that rooms are upstairs.”

    Cramped and rather overpriced but suitable for a flying visit

    Easy to get to University on number 11 bus. Helpful staff. Very clean. BBC1 and BBC2!!! Quite nice breakfast.

    Small bedroom, my sink leaked. Dreadful shower!!! I actually couldn't wash properly!! Very cramped hotel outside of the bedrooms with lots of narrow staircases and no lift. Only really suitable for a brief overnight stop, nothing luxurious at all about this hotel. Overpriced at nearly 100 EUR!

    Basic business trip accommodation

    A reasonable basic accommodation for business nearby. Walking distance to some nice parks and to Utrecth city centre.

    Not always the cleanest; the breakfst and rooms are basic - you only want so sleep here.

    Room on the ground floor is Ok, but feels a bit like a basement room. The nice picture on the web of the terrace and garden overlooking the canal is history.......
