The location is fantastic, with the entrance right on the ground floor of a shopping mall. It's incredibly convenient to just grab some things and take them straight back to the hotel. It's also only about a 5-minute walk from the central station, though you do have to go to the second floor of the mall from the station and then find an elevator down to the first floor to reach the hotel entrance. The staff were amazing, and most of the breakfast items were uploaded (presumably meaning they were readily available or well-presented). The hotel's only drawback is the terrible soundproofing. You can clearly hear people walking upstairs, and even a door closing next door makes the table in the room shake. If you don't mind the noise, this hotel is definitely the top choice in Utrecht.

Well…Someone entered our room in the middle of the night as they had a copy of our card (I don’t know how). After reporting it to their staff, we asked to change a room. He came up to understand the situation and told us to stay put and call him again if someone tries to enter again?! Of course, we rejected his proposal and demanded a change in room which he did do so. After all, we were offered free breakfast but 0 explanation or investigation into the matter even after probing. Room was pretty big tho

This hotel is far from the city centre, but there’s a bus from Utrecht Central Station (Bus 73). The hotel was cheaper than hotels in the city centre, that’s why we chose this instead, haha. The room style was retro 1980s, but everything is fully functional, so it doesn’t matter to us. The room size was big too, and there’s a bathtub. Breakfast was quite OK, and since it’s not easy to find anything to do in the morning in Holland since most shops and restaurants are still closed before 10 a.m., we just added this last minute for €19.50/pp. Next time, it’s better to book a room with breakfast when staying in Holland. I always forgot this.

Located in the centre of Utrecht. Perfect to explore the city, Domtoren and behind church (see the beautiful indoor garden), terraces on the old hill or in the streets behind it or if you like shopping or walking by the city. The room was modernly furnished, with a nice shower and toilet. Bed was a bit hard (personally). Abundant restaurants and cafes in the vicinity. The Street food club was a pleasant and fun atmosphere. Parking was made in p+r west straven in IJsselstein and 15 minutes by tram to central station and 15 minutes by hotel. Surely located in the city center.

The hotel offered an overall satisfactory stay. Breakfast was acceptable, with a reasonable selection. The location is a bit far from the city center, which may be inconvenient without transport. The room was fine and met basic expectations. Staff were polite and adequate. A plus point is the availability of a car park, which is convenient for guests with cars.

The location is great, about 10 minutes walk from Utrecht Central Station, next to the Queen's Store, other large shopping malls, shopping streets, and a few minutes walk from the central church and the city canal. The hotel has a rich variety of breakfast, the only drawback is that there are steps from the door to the front desk, which is not very friendly to tourists with large luggage.

In terms of hygiene, the shower wasn't clean (hair from previous guests). The location is excellent and easily accessible. The service is excellent, and even with bacteria (enterococci) in the water, they do offer bottled water. Breakfast was a bit behind schedule on Sundays, not quite prepared for peak times. The breakfast menu could be better structured. They do have parking, but they could do with some more maintenance in the parking garage due to clogged drains, which cause water to pool on the deck, resulting in large puddles.
