This hotel has a lot of character. The best is the guided tour by former guards, like 'our' Jos. The breakfast is good. The staff is friendly. The information about parking could be better, like with a map. Some rooms and places have a moldy smell. No great views from rooms as the prison was in a residential area.
This is an excellent choice of a hotel only 15 minutes walk from the railway station and centre of town. It used to be a former prison and has been tastefully converted keeping intact the basic architecture. The rooms are basic but clean and nice comfortable beds. Has an excellent restaurant as well. The staff are very friendly.
Very interesting way to conserve a landmark: a former prison.
Solidly built of course, and a quality restoration to serve hospitably.
The location, on the park side of town, assures quiet. Huge parking lot. The rooms are adapted from two adjoining cells, with simple but all essential comfort.
The large breakfast space offers all you could desire. The dining room offers quality, and the bar is well stocked - also quality. Price: very reasonable.
In spite of the price we agreed for an arrangement with golf and dinner of €172,- we had to pay €187,78. Ik spend many emails to let them see that they were wrong, but they pretended that they had extra costs (?). It was really disappointing!
Room we booked smelled really bad and was super dusty. Reception gave us a different room on the same floor which also had a really bad smell. We then got another room, on a different floor. It was an upgrade for free, which was very nice.
There was mould in the shower though and the room was not clean. For the price you expect more of this hotel. Loud noises at night from other guest. Location is nice, walking distance to the city centre. Breakfast is expensive and crowded.
Staff is nice but would not recommended this hotel.
