Reviews and Ratings
The hotel rooms are spacious with very good beds, but the door didn't fit the frame well, making it noisy to shut at night.
The hotel offers great value for what you pay, with friendly service and a charming location close to the city center. The rooms, although in need of redecoration, feature beautiful views of the countryside and spacious bathrooms.
I found the hotel to be conveniently located within walking distance of the charming center of Sluis, making it easy to explore the area. The rooms were disappointingly below standard, lacking air conditioning and in need of redecoration. The service was friendly and helpful, although there were some inconsistencies during my stay. The dining experience offered a good selection, but there were a few aspects that could be improved. Overall, the value for money was reasonable but not exceptional.
