Fletcher Hotel Restaurant De Buunderkamp

We just stayed overnight in this hotel. It is a bit off the road, somewhere in the middle of a forest/green zone. Our booking has been promoted from a regular double room to a superior room free of charge, which was nice. The room was really spacious with fancy red leather armchairs, large bed and a very roomy bathroom, which included both bath tub and a shower. Positiv: huge front windows (down to the floor) with a large balcony attached. The room was really huge. Quite modern renovated bathroom was also a good. Neutral: located quite far from the main roads. Driving late at night through the narrow forest road to the hotel was a bit unusual, though google maps works well. Parking can also be challenging if you arrive late (we came after 10 p.m.) and found only the tiniest and narrowest of a parking spot A couple of furniture pieces were quite shabby, though nothing very dramatic Negativ: the mattress on the bed was too soft for us, which might work just fine for someone else. The room had a side door to the next room. Though the door was safely closed, in the morning you could clearly hear people conversing just behind that side door, which gave us the impression, that someone might be just about to enter our room. Of course nobody entered, but it was a bit weird. Overall if you are looking for a good price stay overnight, this hotel will work for you. Especially if you appreciate a quiet place in the middle of a natural environment.

We booked this hotel for the weekend. The entrance was more or less inviting, the girl at the reception was ok. The corridors had a rustic look, which we liked. However, the room was a disaster. It smelled of mold, the carpets were dirty, the bathroom was more or less clean, with an unpleasant smell and some cobwebs, and the shower had little water pressure. The cupboard above the clothes was full of dust. I understand that it is an old hotel, but they should be more careful with cleaning. The breakfast room was the best room in the hotel, the breakfast was good, and the man who was organizing it was very friendly.

Check in - the gentleman on reception was excellent and helpful. We went to our junior suite. The room has air fresheners, I assume their intention is to mask the smell of drains. Not working! The meal we had on the first evening was excellent as was the service. Breakfast was chaotic with an inadequate buffet and people queueing at the coffee machines for too long. We had been out for the day and returned thinking we would have a beer in the sun before going back to our room. By the time we finally got our beers, the sun had gone. We had to ask twice for service and eventually a waitress appeared and started clearing tables and serving someone else before coming to us (yes she knew we were waiting) she clearly made it obvious she had a problem with us. We have no idea why. We moved inside to the lounge area and she appeared twice to check with others and clear tables totally ignoring us even though we wanted more drinks. My wife was not the first to complain about her apparently. Every Dutch interaction we have had has been really good until now.
