Short walk to the local shops. Lots of parking spaces never s struggle to get a space. Tehre was a wheelchair ramp up to the hotel reception. A 10 pin bowling alley shares the car park. It had a secure bicycle lock dedicated building, accessible with your room key card.

Our reservation was lost by the hotel. They found a room for us but not a deluxe room as we had reserved. Our new room was at a lesser cost but it was a much smaller room than we had booked. Also two twin beds not a king bed as we had booked. An apology would have been appreciated but none was offered. Other than that our stay was comfortable.

The location is great. Right on water, easy walk to downtown restaurant and shopping. The main problem we had was that the lady at the front desk was rude. We called on phone to ask if we can get a extra blanket. She rudely and abruptly said NO. I asked if we can get a couple of extra sheets instead of a blanket. She just lost it on that and shouted NO, NO, NO. Yes, three times.

Amazing!!!

Our weekend was amazing thanks to this hotel and its service. The restaurant is definitely a huge plus point for the hotel with its closed and open terrasse and calming and beautiful interior design. The food was AMAZING and the staff were very friendly and profissional. There is an open buffet for every meal plus Live Cooking! Where the chef prepares different dishes right in front of your eyes! The hotel has also a seperate billiard and bowling hall with a bar so you really don't need to leave the hotel because you have everything you need. The check-in was very easy, we arrived after the opening hours and one of the restaurant workers gave us the keycard to our room. The room was spacious and bright and the bed was very comfy. Big clean bathroom with shower and room service cleaned the bathroom every day. The area is very nice and calm to have a nice walk around and it's only +-15 minutes drive to Giethoorn. I can only recommend this hotel and we are definitely coming back! Thank you Hotel ZwarteWater! :-)

Luxe kamer met groot terras aan waterkant is perfect. Ontbijtbuffet en avondbuffet uitgebreid. Entree was rommelig ivm verbouwing, maar daar niets van gemerkt. Mooi terras aan water. Hier voor 4e x geweest. Een keer zelfde kamer boven partycentrum, dat was vervelend.
