    A little disconcerting to have a clear glass door into the shower enclosure from the bedroom. Make sure you are staying with someone you don't mind sharing your ablutions with. 😁

    This hotel exceeded all expectations. It was ideally located and a fabulous find in this wonderful city. Quirky, beautifully decorated with elegant rooms and stunning restaurants. I would like to revisit in summer when I'm sure the courtyard garden will come to life.

    Room small and no sink in the seperate and tiny toilet (was in main bedroom area) felt strange, but balcony beautiful

    Courtyard, restaurant, decor, breakfast; all superb. Bike storage also excellent and worry free.

    The stairs up to our room very pretty steep, especially with luggage, but the hotel personnel instantly helped with that. Parking costs 35 EUR, wich I find quite expensive.

    The hotel is located very centrally, so you can walk to all the sights and restaurants. It is in a beautiful old building and the whole hotel is furnished very tastefully. Our room was spacious enough, even had a little terrace and the bed was very comfortable. I would also like to mention the hotel staff, they were extraordinarily welcoming and nice. I would love to stay there again and next time try the restaurant in the hotel.

    It would be nice to have a second table to use for a laptop (the desk was small for two people). More, and brighter, lighting would be a plus as well.

    We liked the historic building that had be very sensitively repurposed into a lovely hotel, especially the exposed wooden beams that had been kept in our top-floor room. The front desk staff were very kind and helpful, both for checking in and out.

    I genuinely cannot think of anything that could be changed or bettered

    There was an error - of my making! - in the booking. However, the receptionist made the appropriate arrangements and we spent the night in the Bridal Suite ! The receptionist not only recommended a restaurant for dinner, but when we arrived at the restaurant there was a very thoughtful card from the hotel wishing us a good evening. Having worked in hotels for many years, there is no doubt in my mind that she is one of the best receptionists I have come across. Breakfast is a mixture of buffet and a la carte service and was good and plentiful. Gouda is a beautiful town and this architecturally and historically important hotel building is one of its joys

    Charming slice of luxury hidden in the center of Gouda old town. A true hidden gem. 100% recommend. The restaurant Lizz (which has just got its first Michelin Star) was a lovely surprise. I am very pleased they had a table for an unsuspecting walk-in.

    There is not a vast amount of hotel accommodation in Gouda and, as we were on foot, this hotel was our best choice. However, it is expensive. That is not to say that we felt overcharged in any way. It is a luxury hotel. If I had to criticise, I would have to say that the lack of a hand basin in the toilet is a mistake. Also, who but the extremely young and glamorous would want a mirror on the back of the toilet door?

    This hotel is in a beautiful very old building that has been sympathetically transformed into a gem. The check in staff were friendly and helpful. The hotel location is not too long a walk from the railway station and you are right in the old town. Our room was quiet and peaceful and had every comfort. The hotel restaurant is really exceptional and the inclusive breakfast was lovely. The hotel smelled wonderful. There have been a lot of remarks about the ‘en-suite’ layout of the bedrooms which make it sound as though you are showering or using the toilet in full view of the other occupant. This is not the case. The toilet is in it’s own room and the shower is a large walk-in arrangement behind a solid wall. Only the hand basin is in full view.

    The hotel has some pre-bookable parking spaces in a carpark called Klein Amerika Parking Lot, which is a bit of a walk to/from the hotel.

    This hotel is an absolute gem, with beautiful rooms, beautiful courtyard and fabulous staff. The breakfast was amazing, with a fab selection of menu options. The location couldn’t be more central, with the market square, shops, restaurants and bars all a short walk from the hotel.
