Enlarge letters A A Downsize letters A AThe hotel is like a typical commuters or Arbeitshotel. There is also very international guests. The hotel is spread over two floors with approximately 80 rooms. On the ground floor there are the reception, a bar, the dining room with a small terrace and a smoker's room. In front of the hotel you will find free parking. Everything made a clean impression. I found very pleasant the free and very W-LAN access.
Location
The hotel is on three sides to major roads limited. So while it is easy to reach, but you would suffer from traffic noise especially in the mornings cut. The connection to the A76 is about 500m away. In the immediate vicinity there are several shopping, altough we only a short exploring furniture and clothing stores. More shopping possibilities on street toward downtown Heerlen.
The service is the absolute strength of this hotel. The front desk is always multi-lingual staffed and always friendly and courteous. Wishes and suggestions they always were handled immediately. No fault in the room cleaning.
Gastronomy
Here, I can only comment on breakfast. The hotel also offers evening over the hotel's restaurant food, but we did not use it. I can only say that it look very appetizing and reasonably priced in the upper class sort. The choice is very rich, there every taste something suitable for everyone. The drinks at the bar are approx Gastronomiedurchschnitt the region (0.5 liter beer for 4 euros). Breakfast is 11.50 euros per. P.. Quite expensive but you but also surprisingly good. Besides meat and cheese was also salmon. Rührrei and bacon were also available, also there was the possibility to preparation from the fried eggs. Boiled eggs as well. In addition there are various juices, teas and coffee. Everything was immediately refilled and if not, was a short note to the service and the fault was removed. Breakfast is from 06:00-09:00, dinner until 10:30 pm. On request the hotel also prepares Lunchbeutel to, at the price though - I guess I can't remember exactly remember (approx. 7€). The atmosphere in the dining room didn't invite for longer lingering, it wasn't disturbing, since it wasn't a typical prefer these.
Sport & Entertainment not available
Room
The rooms are a bit small, but for 2 people but perfectly adequate. Next to two twin beds (width about 90 cm) are added a desk with two chairs, a small TV, a stocked mini-bar, a kettle and a walk-in closet with large mirror available. The safe was for free in the room. In the bathroom there was a shower only. As the sales of these is kept very narrow, should be provided with showers must be careful, if not the entire bathroom flooded. Because of the small windows open it in the rooms quite dark. The proximity to three main roads from about 5 hours with reinforced must be expected traffic was disturbing. For this reason I can only the rooms facing the back (odd numbered), as there isn't all that bad. As some guests arriving by late at night and the hotel a bit noisy, the rooms at the back of the course from the best. Overall, the hotel features no highlights, optically everywhere is very simple.
Tips and recommendations
The hotel is with 70€ per night (single room) but very expensive, compared to other hotels in the region but on average. For a stay for a break passing through on a business trip or as sleep possibility is based on the good service still highly recommended. If you can manage it should be considered when a afternoon arrival the N581 and n281 avoid at all costs. At this time by the roundabouts will absolutely amateur working Verkehrsposten controlled, resulting in long jams. We have 6 the A76 exit to the hotel (500 meters) over the two roundabouts 25 minutes. It is across the street in de Cramer maximumly through the industrial area.
