Hotel berhampiran Sint-Laurentiuskerk Westende, Middelkerke

De locatie van het hotel lag ons wat moeilijk,we hadden over het hoofd gezien dat we bijna 2 km van het centrum van Nieuwpoort en de dichtsbijzijnde tramhalte waren. Parkeren op het terrein van het hotel bleek €17 te kosten per dag,zijnde €0,80 per uur,we hebben daar wijselijk voor bedankt en onze wagen langs de straat gezet ( gratis) Op het hotel was niets aan te merken,alles was in orde,maar dat mocht dan ook wel voor de prijs die we betaalden in volle seizoen (eerste helft augustus) Ontbijt is €18 per persoon en per dag...maar was uitgebreid en constant was alles bijgevuld,alleen spijtig dat het Engels ontbijt zo goed als koud was,blijkbaar werkt de warmhoudplaat niet goed ( ?? ) Drankjes zijn heel duur in het hotel,merkelijk duurder dan in het centrum va Nieuwpoort.

The Leopold is an internally stunning hotel, usefully close to the beach and the Kursaal. I realise that the shape of the rooms is dictated by the shape of the building, but mine had some annoying quirks. For example, no soap at the wash basin, so you have to leap across the room into the shower to squeeze some from the wall-mounted dispenser. The towels are in the toilet. There is no flat surface to write on. One of the shelves wastes space by gluing a tissue box in the middle. There are three electric sockets, one halfway up the wall, so there is nowhere to attach the kettle, and two you have to get down on your knees to use. I am too old for that. Sorry to nitpick. The staff are mostly lovely, but if you are on reception and on the phone, at least acknowledge the guest standing in front of you, trying to check in, while you are completing your phone call.

We stayed for 3 nights from 24th to 27th November. Check in was easy, parking was good but a space must be pre booked. The room was basic but comfortable and clean. Staff were friendly and the bar was cosy and very well priced. I would definitely stay again as the location is ideal and the price was reasonable. Breakfast was very expensive but there are cheaper options locally.

Derrière une façade art déco se cache un très bel hôtel, entièrement rénové et magnifiquement situé à 50 mètres de la plage. La décoration est superbe, l'hôtel est super propre. Les chambres dans le jardin sont parfaites, calmes et assez spacieuses avec une belle salle de bain et une petite terrasse. Le .petit déjeuner est peut-être un peu cher pour ce qu'il propose mais tous les produits sont frais et bons. Quel dommage que cet hôtel ne propose pas un restaurant, ce serait un plaisir d'y manger. Le seul problème vient du stationnement, ce n'est pas la faute de l'hôtel mais celle de La Panne. Petit bonus, les chiens sont les bienvenus

Séjour en cpuple pour fêter nos 4 ans, dans ce très bel hôtel. Super bien placer dans un endroit très calme et à 800m de la plage seulement ( 10min à pied en suivant une magnifique rue ouverte ) Déjeuner très copieux, on a absolument tout apprécier. Très bonne fréquentation, donc très calme la nuit. Chambre espace suffisante et moderne, salle de bain moderne également, peut-être un petit peu trop petite quand mmême Lit et matelas confortable. On entends un peu le bruit extérieure, sûrement un simple vitrage en fenêtre. Bref si on reviens dans cette magnifique ville, in choisira sûrement encore une fois cet hôtel. Vive la chaîne Ibis, une valeure sur.

I stayed at Hotel Astoria with my family in August 2022. This is one of the priciest hotels in De Haan which itself is an expensive city. To start with the hotel does not have a step-free entrance, quite shocking in this day and age so if you are travelling with lots of luggage, have a family with a push-chair (like us) or a wheel-chair user rule out staying here straight away. There are about ten high steps to access the hotel, staff offer no help instead they actually look at you like you are a nuisance. At arrival, the check-in staff tried to charge us for the extra bed in the room without bothering to see the booking so be careful if travelling with a family. We were told we can have a complimentary drink from their bar. When trying to claim this offer the staff makes you feel like you are a freeloader, pure rude behaviour followed by a list of drinks that the offer doesn't cover. Basically you can only have a beer or a soft drink. They say they have parking on premises but it's actually just free off-street parking. On the day of our departure there was a fare in the city center so we had to park our car 2miles away. The staff prefers business from walk-in customers in bar and restaurant over hotel guests. Attitude towards children was specially cold and distant, again making us feel like we are causing them extra work.
