I've stayed at this hotel twice in the last 3 years, and it's a mixed bag. The location is perfect for exploring Valkenburg, just a few hundred meters from all the main attractions, but the rooms are not very soundproof - I could hear the showering in the next room. The hotel consists of two buildings on different sides of the street, with one being the main building and the other a dependence with additional rooms.

The location is very good for visiting the Christmas market in the caves and exploring Valkenburg. It's close to everything you might need during your stay.

The breakfast was nice enough to start the day, but on a quieter Monday morning, it felt like the leftovers were provided as there were only a few guests remaining.

I had a mixed experience at this 4-star hotel. The location was excellent for exploring Valkenburg, just a short walk to the city center, but the rooms had some noise issues that were quite irritating. The dining was a pleasant surprise with a variety of choices, but there were some inconveniences in the two-building setup.

The hotel's location was very central, making it convenient to reach all the places we wanted to visit. The rooms were not as quiet as expected but were clean and tidy. The dining experience offered a good selection of tasty dishes. The staff was accommodating, although the service could have been better. Overall, a decent stay with a few minor drawbacks.

The hotel had spacious rooms with balconies in need of refurbishment, though the pricing was on the higher side compared to other options. The property consists of two buildings, one on each side of the street, offering a mix of room types.

I had a great time at this hotel! The room was perfect for my family with small kids - clean, comfortable, and just the right size. The location was fantastic, close to all the main attractions in Valkenburg. The dining experience was good, with a variety of choices, but could use more variety for longer stays. The facilities were top-notch, making my stay even better.

The hotel is in a great location, just a few hundred meters away from all main attractions of Valkenburg. The rooms were a perfect size for a family with small kids, very clean and comfortable, but not really soundproof. The service was efficient, including room service and laundry options. Dining was fine on Saturday and Sunday morning, offering a nice start to the day. The facilities were adequate, but the tiny bottle of water was a downside.
