Hotel berhampiran Westerveldse Bos, Zwolle

When you approach through the forest and waterways this monster in a large pond intrigues. Located next to the old Waterloopkundig or hydrological research centre this building from the sixties with its concrete look, has been fully remodelled and modernized. Nice couches and surroundings created in the main entrance and the hallways. Plenty of parking space and possibility to stall your bikes and bicycles. One strange thing is that they demand immediate payment of the room (even when we had given a credit card guarantee) though you can charge bar and restaurant on the room. All rooms have a balcony overlooking the pond and they have a lot of space. They are modern and supplied with a safe and coffeemaker. Good beds and perfect shower. The lights for reading at the seats and for shaving at the wash basin are faint and don't really help. For the rest, no remarks to the rooms though the decoration on the walls is a little bit of everything. The restaurant offered a special asparagus menu due to the season. We assume they do more of these specialties. The normal dishes have a decent variety and there is the possibility of the chef's choice in meat, fish or vegetarian (recommendable). With the option of strolling alongside the old research objects in the moors and woodlands and the good cycling options, this new (opened at 31 March 2023) hotel is an excellent extra for the Fletcher brand.

Beautifully decorated inside, loads of space in the room. The staff were really friendly and helpful, ready to advise on any tourist information. Plenty of choice for breakfast (included in the price). We had lunch and dinner while we were there. Outstanding. Tasty and beautifully presented. They had a special surprise for dad on his birthday. It's in a very quiet, nature area. Not too far to explore the really pretty towns like Deventer and Apeldoorn. Very enjoyable stay.

Een mooi hotel, vriendelijkheid en gastvrijheid staan hier hoog in het vaandel. Kamers keurig op orde, schoon en netjes verzorgt. Door de eigenaar en echtgenote wordt samen met het team regelmatig voor de gasten een verrassing georganiseerd, zo hadden wij een mooie wandeltocht met begeleiding en onderweg lekkere warme chocolademelk met een warme gevulde koek. Het was wild dat op de kaart stond dus ook nog een keer extra verrast met hoornblazen door een groep jagers. Helemaal geweldig. Het wild arrangement dat wij geboekt hadden was ook voortreffelijk. Enorm genoten. Kwaliteit gastvrijheid en dit met een persoonlijke tint maakt dit een nieuwe favoriet op onze lijst

Wonderfully welcoming staff. Relaxed ambience throughout the property. Elegant dining rooms. Large comfortable bedroom with good amenities in the room. Very nice evening meal (for a separate price) and an enjoyable breakfast (included in the price). Excellent value for money (in the week). No lifts though so if you have big suitcases, this could be a problem (that said, the staff helped us up with our light bags). The room we had had steps down into the room which made it difficult getting out as you had to step back down to pull the door inwards. Would definitely like to come and stay at this property again.
