Nol in 't Bosch

Liked · The location is optimal - the forest and nature is the big selling point of this hotel. Waking up to birds singing and walking through the forest is a great experience when not used to this. The Parking is spacious and easy to reach. Having our dog with us in the room was our initial point to decide for this location. Disliked · The hotel is old and absolutely not well maintained. It is not a 4 star residence at all - 3 at most. Rooms are spacious but not cleaned very well - we had a gigantic non-disclosed stain in the seating area - and the bathroom could use a deep clean as well. Renovations have been done on small scale, like new tiles in the bathroom, but substantial changes like double-glazing (the current single-pane glazing is causing a draft!) or the carpets really need some TLC. The breakfast is very limited and based on products that could be procured cheapest (imho), and placed without any love. The restaurant part is rather nice, the breakfast hall is (again) in need of renovation and a lot of love. The dinner-menu is limited for vegetarians, both vegi main courses are cheese-based so we didn't bother to dine-in. The kitchen might be able to support other options, but we didn't ask for that, and decided to go to a near-by restaurant. With check-in several important points were not communicated (like the fact that we had to hang the "please clean room" sign on the door to have the daily cleaning done (which btw was only changing towels and making the bed, not changing it). The second day we found a paper under the information folder that stated this - when asking the reception this paper should've been placed on the pillow. Apparently the TV system is being replaced (status March 21st 2022) so only 3 local channels were available. Our biggest concern: while entering the Hotel in the evening you hit a wall of cigarette smoke, at first I thought there was a cigar lounge in the restaurant, but it seems that the owner (who apparently lives on-site) is a heavy smoker. Even because of the earlier mentioned draft in the room, the smoke came all the way up into our room. Not nice having a dust and smoke allergy. In 2 of the evenings we fetched 2 glasses of Champagne from the bar, while checking out we had to pay 12.50€ per glass of Champage - this seems a bit steep for the location.

An excellent traditional small hotel in a lovely area and very friendly and efficient service.

Service of the hotel personnel is really below expectation and seems very disorganised. The hotel design is very outdated and not facilities not well maintained. The location is very nice but I would not recommend this hotel to family or friends.

Ontzettend genoten van de gastvrijheid, de sfeer die dit hotel uitstraalt, de mooie natuur rondom, maar vooral het vriendelijke personeel die zelfs als de kok ziek is de honneurs waarnemen en zich inzetten om ons toch een heerlijk 3 gangen diner te serveren, hulde aan Rik en zijn collega ( waarvan we de naam zijn vergeten) we komen vast eens terug. Succes Ans en Frans

Leuke rustige plek, leuk vriendelijk personeel en goedeten en ontbijt. Helaas erg gedateerd en oud, maar wel schoon.

Det var som at træde ind i en anden tidsalder. Stedet var total nedslidt, ingen komfort, ingen kaffe/the muligheder på værelset. En larmende ventilator på badeværelset, som blæste håret tilbage når man gik ud på badeværelset og som larmede så må vækkede hele hotellet om natten når man skulle på toilettet og ingen mulighed for at slukke den uden at slukke lyset. Absolut ikke tre stjerner værd i forhold til prisen. Dårlig morgenmad i koldt lokale.

Mooie locatie met vriendelijk personeel. Heerlijk bed.
