Hotel Haarhuis

清掃がイマイチ。ヒーターの上に前のお客様のタオルがかかったまま。埃がテーブル見える。備え付けのエスプレッソマシーンは掃除していないので詰まってコーヒーが出てこない。6個あったコーヒー全部出なかった。チェックイン中受付は人によるがバイトみたいな適当な人に当たり、名前を伝えたが、予約はないですと言われておしまい。下の名前を伝えたら予約を見つけられた。お客様の数が多い割にレセプションに人が1人しかいないことが多く、対応が間に合っていない。高級店のつもりでいるようだが、ビジネスホテル。

Goed ontvangen door de nachtportier en een receptioniste, Tot aan de kamer is het hotel goed verzorgt. Eenmaal op de kamer lijkt het wel de jaren 80. Schimmel in de badkamer, meubel in de badkamer hangt te laag. Geboekt een tweepersoonsbed en wij kregen, twee eenpersoonsbedden met een dunne topping. Mijn vrouw werd met rugpijn wakker. Koffie op de kamer was echt onder de maat. Overal lag stof. Hygiëne was 5-sterren niet waardig. Volgende keer toch een ander hotel kiezen.

Great modern Hotel. Nice big clean rooms. Nice restaurant, bar and rooftop bar to enjoy a great view of Arnhem. Right across form the train/bus station on one side and City center on the other side. Perfectly situated for a nice time in Arnhem.

We stayed here from the 10th to 12 august while visiting arnhem. The proximity to the mainline station and central shopping area is brilliant. Hotel is easy to find, check in was quick and very friendly and the hotel is in good condition. We got the double and the single room. The single is very sparse, shower, toilet and single bed with not much else, double room was much better with a bath, 2 large single beds and much more space. The breakfast in the mornings was very tasty with a large selection of cold meats, fruit, yogurts, cerea, bread and spreads. There was also bacon, scrambled eggs and sausages, which were very good. We intend to return here on our next trip to Arnhem

Stayed in the Balcony King room - what a beautiful room. Peaceful balcony. Room completely new. Room service was excellent. Location is Right opposite Arnhem Central station, all the stores and restaurants a few steps away . Had the perfect overnight. Arnhem is lovely, only 1 hour from Amsterdam

The transport strike, on the 28th, meant I needed to stay in Holland a day longer than I'd planned to and I couldn't extend my stay at the hotel in Elst (see separate review), I'd been staying in. I had to be out of one hotel by 11am and couldn't check in here until 3pm, but the Haarhuis (Her House, in English) has storage facilities and that gave me the ability to walk around Arnhem centrum (centre) and visit the Airborne At The Bridge exhibition (see separate review), without having to drag my luggage around with me. In an effort to keep my costs down, I'd booked a single room (without breakfast, as there's plenty of shops and fast food places around Arnhem Centraal), but the receptionist did some checking and gave me a free upgrade to a double room, instead. The room itself was very light and spacious, but lacked air conditioning - which was slightly made up for by having opening windows and, being north facing, the room was shaded from the Sun for the most part.. Some have commented on the noise level in the rooms at the front, but it wasn't all that noticeable to me (perhaps, because the strike meant a there were very few buses, no Trolleybuses and few trains were running), despite having the secondary glazing open the entire time I was staying. It came with all the normal amenities, such as a wardrobe, flat screen TV and coffee machine (why no tea, though?). The bed was single beds, pushed together, but had a (thin, but very firm) double mattress on top and I slept extremely well. The bathroom, whilst small, was very well laid out - though, being a slightly bigger framed man, I did find getting in and out of the shower to be a bit of a struggle, as the door only opened half way. The water was hot and very plentiful and the soap/shampoo provided did mean I didn't have to go rooting around in my case to find my own. In conclusion, staying wasn't planned, but it's a lovely hotel, with very friendly and helpful staff, and I'm glad I booked.
