Hotel Berg en Bos

Hospitality, cleanliness, food

Since we stayed during the hot part of summer, we were lucky to have a fan as our room would get hot during the day. Also, breakfast is included in the price. The staff are friendly. The hotel is also close to Paleis Het Loo and Apenheul! :)

I would say it’s a bit pricey for what you get. While the room promised electrical outlets next to our bed, this wasn’t the case with our room. Another thing is that you get small packets of shampoo/bodywash next to the faucet instead of hand soap, which was mildly disappointing. The worst part is the silence. Hotel rooms have quite thin walls, which means you might have loud neighbours. When this is the case, there is no on-site security/staff to enforce the quiet time (23:00) so you will have to ask that neighbour to respect the silence yourself. It was quite annoying. If you're taking public transport (from Apeldoorn Station), you will most definitely be taking the bus for 5 minutes and then having to walk 10+ minutes. Another annoying was that our room (on the first floor) was next to the outdoor seating area, which meant that people's cigarette/cigar smoke would get into our room. Finally, the hotel fails to mention that luggage storage is not available on Sundays, which was the day we checked out.

breakfast very good, staff extremely helpful and friendly. Overall hotel eas a bit "tired" but current owners are in the process of bringing things up to date.

Fridge in room not available.

The lady was so friendly, welcoming and smiling. Due to the location, it is quite silent there.

It is far away from the center and from train station but you know it before you book it. I stayed in a single-bed room for one night. The room was so small and bed is directly next to the wall and there is no covering layer on the wall. Breakfast contained simple things like jam, cheese, ham and boiled egg only.
