Great location

Stayed here en route to Schiphol. The room was in a kind of houseboat on the lake. It was a comfortable room - the wifi was great. The surrounding area seems to be a nature reserve. I’d definitely stay here again.

Not wheelchair nor vegan friendly

4 night stay The hotel’s hot water pipes run under the floor which heat up the room - so hot we had headaches. There were no curtains in the window meaning daylight wakes you up. There is a steep slope to the room plus a metal bar making it difficult for the wheelchair to go into the room. The hook to hold the door open is difficult to access. You can hear ‘everything’ going on in the next room. On the plus side, the doors are wide enough for a wheelchair once inside including the bathroom. The staff seemed friendly enough but unable to provide solutions.

Remote and in the middle of a beautiful landscape along a freeway, this seems like a Dutch Cracker Barrel, but with a hotel. The rooms are floating on the water and have a gorgeous view! BE ADVISED: in the summer, the rooms DO NOT have air conditioning and sit right on the water. They are HUMID AND HOT. It can be very difficult to sleep

Cute little cabin

Nice little cabin on the water - no tea/coffee facilities in the room but onsite not too far away - very hot so would have liked a bit of air con - couldn’t leave the door open as our room didn’t have the door net for the mosquitoes (but other cabins did) nice quiet area even though it is directly on the motorway - it’s a bit of a pain having to do an extra 8K just to get to the right side of the carriageway but not far for Amsterdam central and there’s a park and ride on the way in

Great accommodation. The hotel is part of a motorway service station so there is nothing around in the area apart from the hotel ans the restaurant. The rooms were really nice and on the lake. The food was good in the restaurant.

Scenic waterway view and good restaurant.

The hotel room was on a platform on a nature area in a canal. There is a restaurant where you check in. The food was good and service was excellent. It is located directly off the motor way exit ramp. You do have to be careful of the hotel name because there is a Haji on the opposite side of the motorway. It is a 10 km trip to the other side hotel.
