Overall Ratings & Reviews Hotel De Gulden Waagen

Convenient

Lovely room in a great location.

I don't like leaving negative reviews but I really don't understand why this hotel gets a positive rating on Hotels.com. No breakfast available, the room was not properly clean. Other review sites mention these issues, so I guess it was my mistake not to check more closely before booking.... If there's no breakfast, why don't check-in staff make sure you're aware of this and suggest local options (I went to the excellent DownTown cafe/restaurant a few hundred metres away). On the upside, it's well-located, a nice historic building with reliable Wi-Fi (which often don't go together!). With better cleaning and proper info about breakfast, this would be a nice hotel...

Lovely building in one of the oldest streets in the city. Although check in was 'different' it worked really well and the gentleman who booked us in was very friendly. The public car park is a short walk away by the railway and you need to pay by cards. None of my UK Mastercard or Visa cards would work with the machines but my wife's Barclaycard did; no idea why but something to be aware of. You can get a ticket for the duration of your stay so no need to go back every 24 hours. There is no restaurant at the hotel but that is not a problem as there are dozens of cafes, bars and restaurants in the area, in fact we were spoiled for choice. The room was huge, as was the en suite and the bed was very comfy. The fridge was a bit noisy as was the air con but not enough to disturb our sleep although the local beers may have helped! Thoroughly recommended and will certainly be going back.

The room was quite spacious and very clean. The bed was so comfortable, I did not want to get up next morning. The staff also was very helpful. I will Definitely come back next year.

Service at this hotel is a problem. I arrived Sunday at 3pm. No one was at the reception - periodically checked until 9pm (there is a nice Galician restaurant across from it case this happens to you). Calling the hotel did not work - the calls went directly to voice mail, stating that the inbox was full... I had to find another hotel. Next morning I managed to check in, no apology. (Still working on getting a refund from hotel.com). The first day the room was not made, the rest of the week everything went well. Never saw staff except on check-in. The hotel location is great, very central. My room was very nice and clean. Air conditioning works well and is quiet. Coffee machine is good. One should be aware that if your room faces the street (mine did) it can get very loud until ~11 from the restaurants below. Bottom line: if the check-in would have worked I would recommend this hotel. Given my experience with the check-in I will find a different one next time I go to Nijmegen.

Great location on the square. Good service clean modern great size bathroom and A/C

This was our second stay and we won't be trying other hotels in Nijmegen any time soon. Friendly, comfortable, and in a great location.

It was very smooth and the room was great

Great area. Good service. Dated room.

Lovely hotel very well maintained and right in the heart of the city, my only criticism is that the reception is hardly ever manned so i had to telephone someone to check in, and when i went to check out just left the key but would have liked to have left my bags for a couple of hours as well but no one to take them.

Very comfortable beds, hospitable manager. Quiet hotel.

Lovely room interior, good en-suite, nice bed. Owner let me in for late check-in and was really nice guy. Good nights' sleep (despite some night club noise - it was a Saturday...). Property situated in lovely part of the town with numerous cafes for breakfast.

Great area - pedestrianized so no traffic. Easy walk to bars and restaurants Large room and bathroom (separate shower and bath)

The Gulden Waagen is a private family-run stylishly decorated hotel situated right in the middle of the historic centre of Nijmegen on Langehezelstraat. The rooms are tastefully decorated in faux-period style with all expected necessities; TV, Wifi, AC etc. (no phone). My bathroom had a nice shower and hair-dryer and magnifying mirror for shaving. Comfortable bed.. Breakfast only is offered at the nearby restaurant Het Lemke.. Although the restaurant itself is currently closed, that is where you can have breakfast. For rooms overlooking the street although having sash windows, they ask you not to open them, as the AC will keep the room fresh. I thoroughly enjoyed my stay and even met the charming owner on my departure. I will surely stay there again on my next trip! Well done!

Amazing !!! A very warm personal welcome, a beautiful hundreds of years old building in impeccable state, comfortable beds, clean and spacious bathroom, tourist advice for the old town, great breakfast in yet another stunning building a few doors further down the street etc. etc. This is the best hotel experience I've had in a very long time. The owner takes service to a whole new level. We loved every minute of it! When our travels take us to Nijmegen again, we'll definitely stay there again.

We had one night here traveling through to the ferry near Amsterdam, we really couldn't have picked a better hotel, it is immaculate, has AC, the owners are incredibly welcoming, and it's location is ideal. Be aware though the car parking is public, a four minute walk away, and breakfast is served from 9am which may not suit workers. This will be our go to hotel in future, thank you for a great evening and breakfast.

Nettes Personal, super Lage

Inchecken was erg raar. Kwam voor dichte deur en pas nadat ik nummer hotel had gebeld kwam er iemand open doen om in te checken. Daarnaast was airco stuk en werd deze niet gerepareerd. Verder op geen ontbijt na prima.

Prima verblijf voor 1 nacht - goede locatie - nette prijs
