Our 5 year anniversary at Best Western City Centre Den Bosch

Breakfast - Best Western Hotel - Den Bosch

Prosecco - Best Western Hotel - Den Bosch

For our 5 year anniversary, we decided to book a room at Best Western City Centre Hotel in Den Bosch.
We booked the Deluxe Room and when we arrived at the hotel, I (Demi) was surprised by Nick with a super romantic room with heart balloons, a bottle of prosecco and other decorations. This was already an amazing start of our citytrip to Den Bosch.

The staff in the hotel was absolutely wonderful and very friendly. They even congratulated us with our anniversary and they were very helpful as well. The breakfast in the hotel was a buffet with a large assortiment of bread, cheese, eggs etc. The only thing which was a bit disappointing was that the coffee machine wasn’t working properly during our whole stay.
Furthermore, the room was very beautiful and included modern facilities such as a touchscreen for setting the do not disturb sign and putting the lights on and off.
We also had a rainshower (with a touchscreen as well ) which was absolutely great! We slept very well in the bed and we had an lovely stay in this hotel.

The staff, the breakfast and the room were amazing and we would certainly like to revisit this hotel again in the future. Therefore, we definitely recommend this hotel!

Bagels & Beans – Takeaway review

10/12/2020

Recently, we decided to order two bagels at Bagels & Beans since we were really graving for some lunch.
We hadn’t eaten at Bagels & Beans since last summer due to the pandemic. Therefore we were very happy that we were able to order through takeaway.

Hotel Schaepkens van St. Fijt – Worst experience review!

Hotel Schaepkens van St. Fijt – Worst experience review!

Room View - Hotel Schaepkens van St Fijt

Bedroom - Hotel Schaepkens van St Fijt

Bedroom window view - Hotel Schaepkens van St Fijt

Bathroom - Hotel Schaepkens van St Fijt

During our citytrip to Maastricht and Valkenburg last July, we stayed in Hotel Schaepkens van St. Fijt in Valkenburg.
Upon arrival we were a little bit to early to check-in and therefore we received a drink voucher to get something at the bar.
When we checked at the reception if our room was ready, we were asked to check if the room was cleaned ourselves which we thought was weird.
But since we were very tired, we went to the room to check if it was clean and hereafter we went back to the reception to tell them that it was clean.

We were quite disappointed about the room since it was very outdated and hot and it there wasn’t any fan or airconditioning. We also had separate blankets, the room smelled odd and the shower worked very badly. We booked the Superior room and we had expected a lot more than this. The only positive thing about the room was that it had a beautiful view and that the bed was good.

Furthermore, the breakfast the next day was a disaster. We visited it during the pandemic and it was like COVID-19 didn’t even exist here. Everybody was walking around and touching all the amenities on the buffet and it look very dirty as well. There were no walking routes or markings on the floor and
social distancing wasn’t a thing. We were absolutely shocked.

Luckily we only stayed here for one (overpriced) night and we never experienced such a bad service and hotel before. Normally, we always try to see the positive in every situation but this left us no choice than to write a bad review.

Townhouse Designhotel – Maastricht

Nick Riethoven — Thu, 10 Sep 2020 16:30:14 +0000

While visiting Maastricht, we stayed in the Townhouse Designhotel for 3 nights. Townhouse is a beautiful and cozy hotel in the neighbourhood Wyck and it is within a short walking distance of the citycentre.
Authentic hospitality and ‘Limburgse gezelligheid’ are the key words of this hotel, but then in a modern way.

When we arrived at this hotel we directly felt at home. At check-in we received a cup of homemade soup and the staff were very kind and happy to tell you everything that you need to know about Maastricht.
The hotel is furnished in a modern/vintage style to make it feel like a cosy home. An perfect example is the lounge. The lounge has comfortable seatings, a fireplace and books and games within reach.

We booked the extra large room for the ultimate comfort and we must say that the room was incredibly gorgeous!
Especially the bathtub was so nice that we used it almost every day! Furthermore, the room included a huge king-size bed which slept absolutely wonderful. We also loved the the wall in our room which was covered with cute notes about the hotel and Maastricht.

Moreover, we booked our stay with breakfast included as well. Due to the pandemic, the hotel had a form where you could choose from 3 different breakfast menu’s instead of a buffet. If you want anything extra besides the menu you could just check a box and they will bring it together with the menu. This system worked very well and gave us a very safe and pleasant feeling.

Although we have not made any plans yet to revisit Maastricht, we would definitly book Townhouse again. Everything was amazing, clean and well organized.
From check-in to check-out, we had an outstanding experience!

We would like to know what hotel gave you the best experience? We might visit it in the future

Boutique Hotel Corona – Best hotel in The Hague?

Nick Riethoven — Thu, 27 Aug 2020 16:30:00 +0000

A week ago, we visited Boutique hotel Corona for a short city trip to the Hague (Den Haag). The hotel is the oldest 4-star hotel in the Hague and it is situated in the city centre close to most of the important sights.

When we arrived at the hotel, we were directly greeted by the receptionists. All of staff, especially Martine and Stan, were very professional, friendly and polite.
This gave us a very good first impression of the hotel. After a smooth check-in, we were guided to our room on the first floor.

The Room

We got a beautiful, renovated superior room with everything we needed for an amazing stay. Also, our bags were already brought to our room since we couldn’t check-in directly. We absolutely loved this extra piece of service.
Our room had a personal welcome card from the team, chocolates and a special Corona Hotel ducky we called Cory (Corona and Ducky). All these amenities made us directly feel at home.
The room was spacious and very well cleaned. We slept absolutely wonderful in the bed and the rain shower was lovely as well. Due to COVID-19, there was no breakfast buffet but everything that we needed was served directly to our table. The ‘Buffet-at-your-table’ was very nice. We had an amazing stay at this hotel and from check-in to check-out we received excellent service.
Therefore, we certainly recommend this hotel to anyone who is going to or is planning to visit the Hague. You will definitely receive an outstanding experience at this hotel!

We would like to give special thanks to Lisa for making everything possible!

Martin’s Brugge

Nick Riethoven — Thu, 14 May 2020 18:00:00 +0000

Recently, we have posted a lot about all the restaurants we visited during our trip to Bruges earlier this year.
A few of you asked us where we stayed at during our visit. Therefore, we decided to dedicate a full review about the accommodation in Bruges.

We booked a Superior room at the hotel Martin’s Brugge for two nights. The hotel is located in the city centre and this allowed us to walk to every sight within a very short amount of time and distance.
The hotel consists of multiple connected buildings which makes it one large maze hallwaysystem.
Close to the end of the maze was our room. The room was absolutely beautiful with modern aesthetics. We slept very well on the soft bed and the next day we were ready to see what the breakfast buffet had to offer.
We were happily surprised by the large assortment of breads, cheeses, juices and the warm and cold food options. There was plenty to choose from if you ask us.

To summarize our stay, we loved our stay and were pleasantly surprised by the quality of the room and breakfast. The staff is very friendly and they are happy to accommodate you with any information that you need about the city or the hotel. If you need a place to stay in Bruges, we absolutely recommend you to book your room at Martin’s Brugge for a wonderful stay.

Mortlach Diner at hotel Indigo The Hague

Nick Riethoven — Mon, 25 Nov 2019 19:00:00 +0000

We were invited to attend a special diner at The Vault in the basement of the @hotelindigothehague . The diner was themed around the whiskey Morthlach (@worldklaas ).
Via Nick from @thehaguecocktailweek we got in touch with the organizer of the event, Stephan.
The diner consisted of 3 courses with a cocktail based on Mortlach. Instead of wine pairing it was cocktail pairing. Every course we had a beautiful matching cocktail.
The diner started of with a poached tomato filled with mozzarella cream and a Mortlach Manhattan created with Mortlach 12, vermouth and orange bitters.
After another speach from Michael we got our main course. A very tasty entrecote with port sause and spinach cream together with a whiskey sour cocktail. Both were amazing! As a desert we had a grand dessert consisting of raspberry, pannacota, strawberry and sour with a glass of Mortlach 20. It was an incredible night, learned a lot and met many new people. The food and drinks were fantastic and unique. The vault and Gold Bar are definitely a place you should visit! Great ambiance, lovely staff and good drinks at the bar.
