5/5 - Excellent
Utrecht is the perfect alternative (and base in The Netherlands) to Amsterdam - which is so heavily run-over with tourists - you still get to enjoy the canals & get a feel for the local culture in a much more laid back city.

Room was very clean and lovely. Great view and comfy bed too. However, the room was sometimes quite cold even when the heat was set to the max

Nice clean room, friendly staff. One minus point, there is no outside covered area for the smokers. I know they are a dying breed but to pretend they don’t exist is not cool.

We’ve been coming here for the past 3 years and always request the same room. Unfortunately, we didn’t like the room we were assigned this time. They probably gave our room to someone else
