Hotel berhampiran Three-men statue, Vaals

A no-frills, nicely decorated, well located, clean hotel. Nothing bad to say (except that a more thorough take at cleaning the upper shelf of the wardrobe would be welcome). But everything else was really optimal. I did not need to interact with the staff at reception during my stay, so I can not report on that. The girl who checked me in was efficient and polite, and that was all the contact I had with the reception. I spent interesting evenings at the bar tasting several gins of their rich gin menu, and the two waiters I interacted with were very helpful and professional. I had a ”room with a view”, not the lowest price-range, and it was perfect for one person, although it was a double. The bed was indeed double, but the closet would have been on the small side for two people staying more than a couple of nights. If I have to point something out is the lack of a light curtain in addition of the thick, darkening curtain that the room had. If you did not want to be seen by neighbourghs in the building in front, the only option was to close the curtain, which was very effective in darkening completely the room. This at midday seemed a bit too radical. But the summary of my experience is that I will come back to this hotel if ever again in Aachen.

Absolutely fantastic staff. Could not do enough for their customers. Checking them in, serving beers, serving food. Only 2 staff members on a busy F1 weekend. Very hard working, a credit to the brand. Thank you ladies

We stayed here for a night and it’s basic and fine. The breakfast just had the necessities like some eggs, bread, cheese, ham, etc. but it was good. They also had a nice coffee machine so if you want to drink a cappuccino you can! While the breakfast area was small, it was enough to seat quite a few guests. When we arrived (I believe it was around 8:30am) there were tables that were not cleared yet and during our breakfast only one of those tables was cleared and cleaned which is something they could improve so the guests don’t have to stare at trash all the time. The room did not have a fan or an airconditioning, which is fine, but we also could not open the windows at night because they did not have screens and there were quite a lot mosquitoes and other unwelcome guests waiting to get into our room. The windows were also extremely dirty which is quite disgusting since they open inwards. The beds were clean and the mattress was soft and surprisingly comfortable! The bathroom had soap and showergel/conditioner attached to the wall and the showerhead was small but powerful. For the elderly there was a chair in the shower so you could sit down. The towels were clean and there were two shower towels per person. (the smell in the room also gave away a lot of elderly stay there) The surroundings of the hotel are beautiful so for people wanting to cycle or hike its perfect. Outside the hotel is a seating area where you can drink something. The seats were comfortable and there was plenty of shade. While you drink your cold beverage you can enjoy the view of a small lake and fountain separating the hotel from a main road. We read online this was a 2 star hotel but it was worth 4 stars. In our opinion everything was fine but compared to other 2 and 3 star hotels we stayed at it is definitely not worth 4 stars. Definitely a hotel to consider for an event so you basically only have to sleep there. Don’t expect too much. + comfortable mattress + nature + fresh breakfast - cleanliness - check-in - heavy old school room key

We were nicely surprised by this new (or recently refurbished?) family-run hotel. It is very cozy, laid out in a ”motel” style where each room is entered from either the courtyard or a courtyard balcony. We did not use the swimming pool but its use was offered. The courtyard garden and surroundings are beautifully kept and fit well with quite picturesque neighbourhood of Eynatten. There are five restaurants within a walking distance if you happen to arrive, like us, on Sunday night when the hotel restaurant is closed. The breakfast was very good and when there was a slight confusion as to the time the brakfast started, the family started running around and managed to start the breakfast within minutes after our (early) arrival to the breakfast room. The location close to the highway makes it a nice place to stop on a long journey.

The two stars is for the skiing facilities and a kind member of staff who filled a kettle with boiling water so I could have a cup of tea in the evening. The rest is not worth the money!! The rooms are over priced. We had a studio with 4 beds upstairs (one double, two twins) and sofa bed downstairs. The sofa bed cannot be used by friends as it’s right next to a toilet and shower with glass sliding doors, no privacy and you would be woken during the night with people going to the toilet right next to you. There is no kettle, tea/coffee in the room and the cafe doesn’t offer any take away hot drinks. Nor do they offer a selection of caffeine free teas so it’s impossible to have a drink whilst staying unless you have their limited range. The room isn’t serviced daily, strange for a hotel. The photos showed a desk, but there wasn’t one, might not be an issue for some but my children were revising for exams. Worst of all is the food. The cafe menu is full of ultra processed rubbish that comes from the freezer and the quality and taste is awful. If you are staying for a few days you are stuck with this menu as nothing else was open for lunch. Dinner - the hotel charged myself and my two children (aged 11 and 13) €33 each for a buffet dinner - €99 for 3. For this privilege we were offered a tray and 6 choices, to be served canteen style. This was rice, couscous, mixed veg, chicken, salmon or beef stew. Plus bread. Pudding was a few pears and oranges served whole and unpeeled and plain yoghurt you can spoon into a bowl. Not a buffet, this was a canteen with very limited choice, no puddings or icecream. No drinks except fruit cordial and water. When I complained to the staff that for €33 they should be offering some proper dessert options they said they would get some icecream from the cafe but then hid in the kitchen and didn’t come out for the rest of the service. I had to hunt down a staff member to order a glass of wine and was asked to pay for it before leaving. However when I left there were no staff insight and after 10 minutes I got fed up and left. I’ve no doubt it will be added to my bill of €99 even though they said it couldn’t be added to my bill and I would need to pay separately. €33!!! For one main. How can they justify that? The ski facilities are great and ‘some’ of the staff tried to be helpful but it’s clear there are serious failings in how the hotel is run. I won’t be returning and cannot wait to go home and enjoy some fresh food that’s not filled with UPF’s and costing €33 per plate

In een prachtig gebouw een prima en royale economykamer gehad. Goede douchefaciliteiten. De medewerkers aan de receptie zijn voorkomend. Gevraagd om een waterkoker en kregen toen meteen de vraag of we ook bekertjes en theezakjes wilden. Wij konden vanuit hier weer heerlijk uitgerust verder met de Dutch Mountain Trail.

Service was goed. Kamer compleet. Ontbijt goed verzorgd en ruime keus. Helaas hadden wij de Kamer boven de Irish Pub. Dat is knap waardeloos. Tot 4.00 uur geen oog dicht gedaan. Ondanks ramen dicht ventilator aan, ook geen airco, en was erg warm....Deze kamers boven de pub zouden eigenlijk nuet gebruikt moeten worden......

Bastion hotels zal ik zeker niemand aanraden, wat hier gebeurd is ver onder de maat dit zowel in beleid als in service als in kundigheid personeel. Mij overkwam het volgende: Ik woon in Zoetermeer en kreeg voor het weekend het bericht dat mijn vader plots overleden was. De uitvaart zou op dinsdagmiddag zijn. Ik ging op zoek naar een hotel om dinsdag te overnachten omdat na de uitvaart nog een familiediner gepland stond. Op het internet zag ik op de site van Bastion staan dat als je een kamer via een andere site goedkoper aangeboden ziet worden je de eerste nacht gratis kreeg. Nu ik inderdaad een goedkopere prijs zag was het voor mij een goed idee hier gebruik van te maken om zo al op de maandag naar Heerlen af te reizen. Geprobeerd e.e.a. te verifiëren maar Bastion had alleen een nummer voor doordeweekse dagen en ik moest beslissen. Hierop heb ik het filiaal gebeld en de situatie uitgelegd (dat ik voor de crematie van mijn vader kwam) en alléén naar dit hotel zou willen als ik de dag eerder gratis kon verblijven. De receptie vertelde dat ze het ging navragen en ik zou teruggebeld worden. Expliciet gevraagd om mij dit zondag en uiterlijk maandag ochtend vroeg te laten weten. Maar ik hoorde niets en belde het hotel (waar je heel lang in de wacht staat, ook al is er geen bezetting) Ik zei dat ik niets had gehoord en nu moest gaan rijden en sprak af dat ik ter plaatse wel zou horen of het nu akkoord was en anders elders mijn intrek zou nemen. Eenmaal aangekomen was er een zeer vriendelijke receptioniste die ik vertelde dat ik niets had gehoord maar alleen zou blijven als ik gebruik kon maken van de actie. Dit was geen enkel probleem er werd een notitie gemaakt, dat ik a) betaald had en b) ik twee nachten zou blijven. “So far so good”….. Maar het werd een drama, de eerste avond met honger naar bed. Ik had in de middag de menu kaart al gevraagd (forse prijzen) en liet mijn oog vallen op iets waar ik echt trek in kreeg: Oma’s gehaktballen geserveerd met gekookte aardappels en verse groenten van de dag. Na wat familie bezoek het restaurant van het hotel bezocht. De dame in de bediening vroeg mij of ik wat wilde drinken. Ik vroeg welke rode huiswijn er geschonken werd wellicht kon ik kiezen tussen een Merlot of een Cabernet o.i.d. “We hebben zoete rode wijn “was het antwoord van de dame in de bediening. Ik zei dat ik dat absoluut niet dronk “wilt u dan een zure wijn “was tot mijn ontsteltenis haar antwoord… toen ik zei “ik wil graag een droge “keek ze me meewarig aan en beende naar de bar, bekeek een paar aangebroken flessen waar ze kennelijk zelf ook geen vertrouwen in had. Vervolgens dook ze in een kast en toverde daar twee flessen uit en schonk een glas in, en eerlijk gezegd bleek het een zeer acceptabele huiswijn. Toen bestelde ik de gehaktballen (van Oma) en vroeg wat de dag verse groente waren, dit zou broccoli worden en ik vroeg expliciet of het geserveerd werd met gekookte aardappelen, daar ik geen zin had in friet die ik om me heen op de borden z

Interesting, entertaining place! Efficient, friendly and satisfying… Car parking should be available closer by. The hotel itself is well designed. Please watch your TV channel list, half of channels are not available. Overall recommendable - Keep it up!
