What a peaceful and relaxing delight. The dining was exquisite. Well worth the trip and very easy to get to using only public transportation from Amsterdam. After taking a train, get a bus at Amsfoort. Eight stops later, it stops in front of the hotel Couldn't be easier.

My wife and i really enjoyed our stay and our dinner at the Echoput restaurant. We opted for a 5 course set menu with wine pairings for each course. Food and wine were both amazing and highly recomend a stay at this property. Very close to the Paleis Het Loo which we also enjoyed visiting.

It was a lovely stay

Hotel is very nice and personnel is friendly. The problem I had is with the severe lack of proper lighting. Use of LED fixtures is admirable but does not work for every location. Bathroom lighting is deficient. Some stairway lighting is also insufficient for safe decent. Bathroom door (at least in my room) does not open sufficiently.

This is a lovely hotel located in the middle of a forest. There are not a lot of shops or restaurants around it. The room was very large with a big bathroom. I stayed in winter and the room was very warm. The clean was good, although one day they took all the cups from the room and didn't replace them. You also need to ask if you want your minibar stocked. Breakfast is lovely with your eggs and sausage/bacon cooked fresh for you. Dinner in the bar was also nice (game focused menu). Staff were very attentive to my needs and moved my room when requested. The room facing the highway can be a bit noisy though the staff did say this stops over night, but I thought why take the risk when they had plenty of rooms facing the woods.

Great base for hiking/biking in Veluwe and visit to Apeldoorn area.

Nice modern luxurious hotel, nice for couples to do walking in forrest around. Great breakfast !

The rooms are spacious, but the decor very dark and cold. Black and grey .. Lighting insufficient especially innthe bathroom. This is supposed to be a Hotel gastronomic, but the dinner service was so slow, that it took 45minutes to get a menu, and after 2 1/2 hours the main course of a 4 course dinner was still not served...As we could not get the attention of our waiter who we later found in the foyer, we gave up and left. So we never had our dinner..! Disastrous.

I have been coming to this hotel for quite a few years now, and quite frequently as well, I may add. The hotel and its staff have never disappointed me and I always like to come back here. I am a frequent business traveler and I have seen my fair share of hotels around the world. This one stands out because of its smaller size, friendly staff and perfect location if you like tranquility and a beautiful forest setting and lots of crisp, clean forest air.

Everything about the hotel was great: service, comfort of the room, location on the doorstep of great walking and cycling routes. We had a room overlooking the road and there's no denying it: you hear the birds as well as the cars. But we felt that everything else overshadowed this (and yes I normally hate noise!). The bed was extremely comfortable and having a bath looking at the tip of the trees was very relaxing! The staff were extremely helpful, efficient and knowledgeable. The food was delicious both breakfast and tasting menu for dinner including paired wines. If we're back in the area we will definitely go back.

Had a lovely stay at the hotel. It is in a quiet area no shops or restaurants in walking distance. There is a bar, casual restaurant and a more formal restaurant on site. Staff were friendly and quick to service your needs.

Lovely hotel. Third time I have stayed here and I specifically choose it because it has an "away from it all" feel but is quite close to the town of Apeldoorn (which also has a quieter feel to it that than the big cities of The Netherlands). This area of The Netherlands is particularly attractive, with a forest and woodland feel which is a little reminiscent of parts of Germany/Scandinavia that I have stayed in. The hotel is surrounded by trees on all sides. The rooms are very well appointed, well kept, clean and comfortable, with pleasant views of the surrounding forest. Parking is easy and free. The bar and restaurant have good ambience and excellent food. The only negative thing about this hotel for me is that it is not located close enough to very many of the business customers I visit in The Netherlands. I wish this place was within 50km of Rotterdam!

The setting was beautiful, right in the Forrest near the Palace grounds. The hotel was easy to find. The landscaping and outside amenities were lovely. The restaurant food was delicious and the service, everything I could ask for. I would highly recommend this hotel!

Super. Restaurant ook echt aan te bevelen.

I was supper sick and they were very nice letting me stay in the room longer than check out and brought me up soup the night I checked in with no extra room service charge since I was too ill to go downstairs.

Personalized service - modern and clean decor - quiet and peaceful

This was a lucky pick on our trip. We thought we might stop and see a theme park and this hotel looked like it was nice but out of te way. Well we never got to the theme park because this place was so beautiful. It was located in huge forest all off to itself. it was so peaceful and beautiful we had a great break in our busy holiday trip. There was a nature museum and huge long trails everywhere. The time we were there it was raining but that could not hide the sheer beauty of the location in The Netherlands forest. It is isolated and has it's own restaurant on site otherwise the closest restaurant is about a 45 minute walk. Stores and other shopping is even further so, for us, a car was needed. That didn't take away from the beauty of the location.

Very good through out

Friendly and helpful staff

Fresh nature all around. Wild animals in the Royal Dutch Forest. Good diner and excellent design. All this is for a good quiet and relax holiday.
