Hotels Near Thermae 2000 in Valkenburg

I was extremely satisfied by my stay at Thermae 2000. Located on a mountain in Valkenburg, the panoramic views and the natural beauty of the surroundings give a great sense of serenity. The hotel is very comfortable. Each room, fully equipped and well maintained, has a little terrasse with a peaceful view on the forest. Built as a pyramid, it is the only hotel I know that has a little funicular instead of a lift to go from one floor to another. The staff in general, and especially in the hotel and the various restaurants, are always smiling, polite and seem to care and be happy to work in this place. They will make you feel welcome and comfortable, and attend to your every request with a smile. The spa facilities are very extensive, super clean and well maintained, and you can choose from a variety of options to suit your mood and needs. There are pools inside and outside and a very large choice of saunas, steam baths and water treatments as well as lots of space outside to relax and cool down. Throughout the day, free group activities are proposed. The spa treatments are very professional and enjoyable. The therapists are skilled and pleasant. All the rooms are clean, well maintained and provide the perfect atmosphere to relax and feel pampered. I tried the gastronomic restaurant for dinner (« Pure”) and it was perfect. The Indian lady Executive Chef has a very inventive, superbly presented, sophisticated and tasty cuisine. It is a bit expensive but worth every penny. The dishes are creative, fresh and flavourful, and the service is impeccable and reasonably quick – although the restaurant was full on that night. (It is advisable to book in advance) Overall experience: Perfect for a special occasion. I believe, it is one of the best spa resorts in the Netherlands and among the best in Europe. I personally truly unwinded and enjoyed every minute of my stay.

The hotel is quite new, suitable for self-driving tours, and is far from public transportation facilities. Room equipment is simple. The parking lot is a little far away and requires an extra fee. It is recommended that after 8 pm, you can park in nearby roadside parking spaces without paying extra.

I was with my husband and we celebrated the 2nd portion of our honeymoon, a wedding gift from our friends and family. Our check-in was smooth and the staff gave us an upgrade to a junior suite with a note and some deliciouschocolates. It was lovely but not very sound proof from other guests. The room could use a few updates as well but the view was beautiful. The property is gorgeous with the château, sculptures, church, rose garden and natural surroundings. We enjoyed our Saturday night dinner at the grill and the service was very good. There are limited dining options on Sunday evening if you don't wish to leave the property. I had a massage with Maureen and she worked wonders on a troublesome back problem. A true professional. The breakfast buffet was quite extensive with local products as well but very busy. Not a calm environment with large groups and an impolite guest on her phone but we appreciated the quality of the food, options and service team. We enjoyed our stay but felt that for such an incredible setting, there was a certain charm lacking with such a whirlwind of comings and goings. Perhaps a future stay but not during peak season.

A fairly basic hotel, 10 minutes by car from Maastricht. The room was adequate. We had chosen, at a slight premium, for a bigger room, which it was. The bed was a bit on the soft side. Carpet had seen better days. Most likely some decades ago. Bathroom was the same. Everything worked, but quite outdated. Breakfast was okay-ish. Very frequent refills, but quality wise nothing to write home about. Staff is very friendly. Parking lot of the hotel is not easy to find when coming from the direction of Maastricht. Parking lot was also full. Good thing there is a huge parking lot across the street. The main problems: Staff leaves at 10pm. The front door is locked from the on. Which is not an issue as you are given a key. But the elevator also get switched off. Which becomes an issue in case you are not abke to use the stairs. This piece of information is not on the website. I had requested a room either on ground level or acces by elevator, but only found out after check-in that I could not use the elevator after 10pm. An email would have been nice to let me know that I would need to be in my room before that time. The noise. This hotel is old, and noisy (hence turning off the elevator at night). Earplugs are available/in clear view at the front desk. Which should tell you how often this is an issue. During our stay the couple in the room above us thought a 2am shouting match was appropriate. It was not. I’m glad we were able to book the room at a serious discount. Otherwise the rating would have been much lower. I don’t think we will come back.
