The only comment on cleanliness was that it was generally very good bar the bathroom sink which required some serious attention.

Completely overpriced- horrible breakfast!
I booked this hotel because it said it has a spa including a sauna. This was a gift for my partner. The night was 150 euros excluding breakfast but because it was supposed to include the spa it seemed ok. When we arrived they told us that the sauna is not finished and that there’s only a pool. I had to pay 40 euros extra for breakfast which, to be honest is not very good. The tables were all dirty, nobody comes to clean then even if you ask for it. The food is not worth the price at all! I went to the reception to explain the fact that I booked the hotel only for the spa, and the woman at the reception said that I should read things better!! What type of comment is that??? I’ll never be back to this hotel... that is for sure! And I will never recommend it! They are Liers and they rip you off.

Great stay
We were in the building located just beside the main building. The room was large, clean and well appointed with a patio area to sit in as the sun set. Not much in area but excellent bus links to Leiden and The Hague.

An excellent family-run hotel. Would return.
Very good hotel, traditional in style that offers excellent food options in site, including an excellent produce store. Convenient location for visiting The Hague & Leiden; only wish we’d had more time to do it. Only downside was a small bag for medication was not placed in freezer the night before our departure as specifically requested.

Overall, the hotel cannot be faulted but it is unfortunate that smokers congregate under the canopy at the entrance, notwithstanding the fact that there are 2 notices indicating that it is a non-smoking area. Thus making it unpleasant for non-smokers entering and leaving the hotel.

Lovelt hotel, very clean and comfortable room. The service was excellent. Only one little complaint the double bed had two single duvets on it so it was a little cold.

The Hotel is located within a "Just off" city congestion and lies between the cities of The Hague and Amsterdam. It is a hotel that will not disappoint you to be sure. The rooms are very comfortable and the service certainly worth noting. The ONLY problem is if you rent a car for your trip and stay at this hotel property that parking may become a huge inconvenience. It is due to the hotel property operating 3 plus restaurants that results in challenging times. As tourist, we of course arrive back at the hotel evenings, just at the time conferences and diners do as well. Otherwise, I have stayed at other Van Der Valk's hotels and they have all been wonderful experiences. Not much to worry about, rather - ENJOY !!

Another excellent visit to the hotel!
Even though our stay was only overnight we enjoyed every moment. This is the second time we have stayed at this hotel and each time we have had a great room and enjoyed the hotel amenities. The hotel is ideally situated to visit the local attractions, and the beach at Wassaanar a short drive away. The deli at the side of the hotel is great to buy food for picnics and gifts to take home. I look forward to my next visit!
