Hotel Dordrecht

The photo shown is the room we had. It was on the first floor, please note no lift, large with a balcony overlooking the garden. Usual continental breakfast but eggs and bacon available on request. Beautiful old house 10 mins to centre. ASk forroom at the back as it will be quieter.

Gorgeous mansion turned into a hotel. Very friendly and kind staff. Our room in the attic was spacious and so beautiful! Garden is nice! Includes breakfast and parking! It feels you’re staying at a castle

Our room was on the top floor with a River view. The room was spacious (not like most European hotels) with a nice sitting area and room to rest. At night we had a good view of the top of the clock tower. The twin beds were good, but the mattresses were foam rubber which did make for some soft edges when you tried to get up but it was comfortable.. The hotel was a old mansion which was refurbished into a hotel. There are photos on the walls of the ancient rooms and decor. There was no built in A/C but the hotel had added a moveable A/C unit (for summers) that definitely cooled our room. Plus, the swing open roof windows brought in a nice breeze. The bathroom was a good size with complimentary personal items (combs, toothbrush, lotion, etc.) I would give it five stars except that there is no lift in the hotel so getting to a room with luggage was a bit hard...they do need to offer a "bell captain" to bring luggage up the stairs. The receptionist was extremely helpful and nice. She was pleasant to work with and offered us the things we needed. Around the corner (100 meters) was a good sized grocery store and personal needs store (Action Stores). Across the road is a peaceful walk to the river's edge and benches to watch the sunset right on the river and looking at the Railroad bridge. only two blocks away is the historic Grote Kerk. This magnificent church has kept alive the history, stories, and facts of Reformation's Synod of Dort (1618-1619) which drove the error of Arminus out of the church and established Calvinism as the truth of the Bible.WHile the original meeting hall was destroyed in 1700's the replica of the meeting hall and artifacts from that meeting are inside the Grote Kerk. For breakfast, they serve a general plate of bread, meats, and cheeses and then offer a cooked-to-order side of bacon, eggs, etc. You can eat in the dining room or—if the weather is nice—eat in the rear garden. Beware, there is an addition of rooms on the backside that is not inside the Mansion and is the normal standard rooms. I would advise spending the few extra dollars to have a River View room inside the Mansion. The rooms are good, sitting chairs are nice, a writing desk is in the room and good sized coffee table. Each room has a mini-bar, but with the grocery store nearby it was nice to have the cold fridge. A definitely destination hotel!
