Warm welcome
We’re personally welcomed and immediately escorted to our room. Room was modern and had a large balcony. Service was great! Food was good. No elevator and a maze of corridors and stairs to get to your room. Recommend this hotel and would stay here again

Heerlijk verblijf. Iets verder van het toeristische deel van Terschelling, lekker rustig en goed bereikbaar met de bus. Mooie fietsroutes in de buurt en meer dan voldoende fietsen te huur. Lekker eten en heel vriendelijk personeel.

Prima ruim hotel.
Prachtig hotel, goed gelegen in midden van het eiland. Mooie ruime kamers, met 2 relax stoelen. Gezellig en comfortabel, zelfs een balkon. Ontbijt goed, maar wel elke dag hetzelfde. Uitstekende fietsen te huur.

prima kamer en service, zeker in deze corona tijd. Enige opmerking is dat de kraan in de badkamer met een bewegingssensor uitgerust was. Dit is voor normaal gebruik absoluut onpractisch.

Fijn en mooi hotel. Van alle gemakken voorzien. Enige minpunt was dat er geen airco was in de kamer en de rest van het hotel. Voor de rest alles netjes verzorgt en super vriendelijk en behulpzaam personeel.
