The area, the staff was ao friendly. I forgot something there and they were so accomodating in sending it to me. Very nice and pleasant staff, at the check in and at breakfast. Breakfast was outstanding, spa was perfect. We enjoyed and definitely will go back
Staff was amazing, rooms big and clean, generous gifts upon arrival and departure. Food at bistro was good and service perfect. A very nice pool and good service. Breakfast was very nice and service there very good. The surroundings were beautiful and serene. Will come back, would recommend!
Set in a beautiful location, the buildings and grounds are stunning. We had a standard room which was perfect for our needs, comfortable bed, lots of room. Couldn’t fault. Valkenburg is a very pleasant 30 minute walk through the neighbouring nature reserve.
This place is beautiful. The property is immaculate and it’s just tucked away enough to seem remote while only being a five minute drive to Valkenburg. We felt like we were royalty and the staff made extra efforts to encourage that feeling. I would definitely recommend this place and if I return to the area I would stay here again.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
It was a wonderful stay especially because of the surrounding and restaurant Les Salons. Unfortunately the rooms are a bit outdated and ready for some renovation. Breakfast on the room was mesiochre and it was quite noisy in the room due to upstair neighbours. But the dinner at the restaurant was marvellous and so were the service and surroundings.
The hotel was a good deal as the room was spacious and included items in the mini bar. You could also use the spa facilities.
However, if your rate doesn't include breakfast, it is 37.50€ per person! We went elsewhere.
We treated ourselves to dinner in the Salon. If you like fine dining with matched wines, you will enjoy the experience.
An amazing stay run by a rop notch family owned hotel group. Staff is superb. Bedding like a cloud of comfort. Restaurant is 5 star and even produces a delicious vegan course selection on request. Grounds are beyond description. Inner formal gardens surrounded by landscapes complete with wild horses! Excellent indoor pool and spa. Great place to take a nap. Will return for sure.

No AC, just a fan. Restaurant fully dinner booked for days before I arrived. Breakfast service was great. Pool area tidy. Carpet and wall paint aged. Tub was great. Housekeeping staff unnecessarily noisy and left multiple doors open while cleaning, flying bugs and brown spiders in the room after they left. WiFi constantly down. Office staff though exceptional, professional, helpful. The early and constant church bells on the weekend were unexpected and the primary reason I will not be returning.
