Nice hotel and not far from the Wildland zoo

Nice hotel near the zoo. Although not as close as the other hotel, but it's a good alternative for better price if you are going to visit the Wildland zoo with the kids. Room is clean and comfortable.

Nice!

Great Price-Quality ratio, very friendly crew. Easy access by car due to hotel's car park right outside the entrance. Slight drawback regarding the food in restaurant; the steak wasn't quite up to expectations, the dessert was however utterly delicious. In all, we were very pleased with our stay at this hotel.

Vi havde booket 3 værelser, for to overnatninger. Vi ankom i december og der var ingen varme på værelserne, den første nat sov vi alle med tøj på, og på toilettet/bad var der ingen varmekilde. Desværre tog det pynten af et ellers godt ophold.

Lage TOP- Zimmer FLOP Der Eingangsbereich, sowie das Ambiente im Restaurant und Bar war ansprechend. Das war in den Fluren, sowie in den Zimmern anders. Das "Deluxe-Zimmer" war mit einem Low-Cost Zimmer vergleichbar. Das Zimmer war klein, eng und mit einem uralten Bad ausgestattet. Im Badezimmer gab es kaum Ablageflächen, die Armaturen waren angerostet/ angelaufen, wir müssten über den Wannenrand der alten Badewanne klettern, um zu duschen. Das Bad verfügte über keine Pflegemittel, außer Seife. Im Zimmer selber gab es einen Wasserkocher, welchen wir in dem verkalkten Zustand nicht verwenden wollten. Es gab keine Mini- Bar und noch nicht einmal eine Flasche Wasser. Nach Reklamation an der Rezeption und Nachfrage, ob es sich dabei wirklich um das Deluxe Zimmer handelt, wurde uns mitgeteilt, dass die „Normalen“ Zimmer noch älter sind. Unsere mitgeteilte Unzufriedenheit und Kritik wurde gehört, jedoch wurde Nichts unternommen, um uns zufrieden zu stellen.

Eksklusiv restaurant

Spændende hotel. Selv om værelset vendte mod befærdet vej, var der ingen støj grundet lydglas måske? Ved åben vindue var der vejstøj, men da værelset har aircondition, var det ikke nødvendigt. Dejlig restaurant med lækker mad.

Het is een mooi hotel, maar wel erg gehorig en niet echt gasten die midden in de nacht rekening houden met gasten die om 2.45uur al wel slapen…. Maar heel vriendelijk en behulpzaam personeel. Als we nog een keer gaan dan boeken we wel 2 kamers, een familiekamer viel ons erg tegen
