Store Restrup Slotshotel

Beautiful place for having a celebration with family, friends or colleagues. It is a very special building, with lots of antiques and old paintings in perfect conditions. It really feels like you are having dinner in a castle. The food was really good and the service was excellent. The only issue could be that there is only one toilet. The park around the building is beautiful.

I was visiting Aalborg for business and had to stay here due to all the local hotels being booked for a fair. It's about 9km outside Aalborg and seems to be favoured as a wedding venue. The hotel has an interesting history but really needs a lot of money spent on updating the facilities and decor. I was put in a room in a separate annex which is a couple of minutes walk from the main hotel reception and dining. The room was musty, very small and with no facilities such as tea, coffee or water. WiFi would not connect due to a poor signal and the shower in the morning was barely warm. View out the window was an open air swimming pool full of algae and bent rusted metal. Food was limited in terms of the menu but excellent and staff were welcoming and helpful.

Nice enough but worn around the edges. There was one toilet made available to over 50 of us. When that broke, we had access to another one toilet down the hallway which was shared by even more people. Disabled entry was limited - we had to lift a heavy ramp onto steps as staff would not help. Also no disabled toilet access and the toilets themselves were very cramped. Food was nice. Staff seemed miserable. It was an ok visit, but if I were to choose a location for an event, I would not choose here.
