Hotel Staats is not only luxurious but also offers a gorgeous interiour with a lot of eye for detail. The a**osphere is very relaxed, with those working at the hotel going about their work in a calm manner, it isn't loud at all and very effective. The whole process from check-in to check-out was easy. The room we upgraded to (presidential suite) was very nice with a comfortable bed, separate seating area and all in all a real experience. We ate in De Ripper restaurant on our first night, a restaurant that offers educational/work opportunities for young people. The whole evening was excellent, food, service and a**osphere, it all was very good and a must do for anyone staying in or nearby (but why not stay at Staats?). A special mention for Amber (who served dessert) and looks forward to travelling (dont forget to go to Cardiff!) and to the early team that did breakfast. It was lovely, made to order omelettes and a lovely selection of breads and other items.
