Hotels near Streetart by WABe Akazia, Aachen

I have stayed in this hotel quite a number of times and consistently the quality of my stay has been high. This time was no exception. The staff was very friendly and helpful. The room and the bathroom were spotless and had everything I needed. The WiFi was complimentary and worked really well. The signal was strong and stable. There was one thing that I'd like to see changed though. You need to register every day, but the login process is confusing. After you've agreed to the terms and conditions and clicked on the button to get the free WiFi, another window pops up and it wants to know things from you. This is however not needed to sign up for the WiFi and seems to be purely for marketing purposes. By clicking on the right link, you can skip it. The room was not all that large, but the space was definitely adequate. There was more than enough space for my clothes and other things. The water boiler plus complimentary tea and coffee was convenient, just as the very large safety deposit box that easily fit my 15” laptop, plus other belongings. The work desk was small and especially with a regular chair, not suitable to work at for a longer period of time. The TV was small and had a limited set of channels, but that was not so relevant for me. A detail, but really useful, is that there are sufficient power outlets and at the right place. This makes it very easy to charge your devices. The bathroom was on the small side, but fully functional and the water pressure from the showerhead was more than sufficient. Only minor thing that I've noticed in the past too, is that it requires some engineering creativity to keep the showerhead in the right position. This should definitely be improved. It is annoying and unnecessary. Last, but not at all least, was the breakfast buffet. I really enjoyed it. This is mostly a continental style buffet, but with an amazing amount of choices, including various types of fresh and very tasty breads, yoghurts, fruits, cheeses, juices, cereal, etc. This is a great example to other hotels how to serve a healthy, yet delicious breakfast.

I spent three nights at the Hotel Regence, Aachen, in March 2024. I took a Queen Room on the fourth floor, which was fine for a short break. The multi-lingual staff were excellent, attentive, engaged and professional. Although the hotel does not offer an evening restaurant service, the staff recommended an Italian restaurant in town for supper. The hotel breakfast buffet was superb. Wifi is available throughout the hotel. I would happily stay in this hotel again.

Nice hotel at a good central location. Our room was spacious although quite warm (no airco). Shower facilities were ok, but the toilet space was extremely cramped. The bedding was not 100% clean. The service at the reception was very friendly. Excellent breakfast, lots of choice, omelettes or fried eggs on order, with super service by Abdallah. No parking, you have to put your care in one of the (very busy) parking garages nearby.

I stayed with my family at B&B Aachen recently. It was recommended by a friend. The staff was amazing and very kind. They were very accommodating while we checked in, making sure our families were all staying in the same floor. The rooms were very clean, spacious with comfortable beds. Parking entrance is in the back of the hotel. We made sure with the staff that our rental SUV fit the parking elevator. Location couldn’t be any better. Central, close to the main square, shops, and restaurants.

We were looking for a hotel within easy walking distance to the old city. And with a good breakfast. Innside was modern and comfortable. The rooftop breakfast was good with a great view. Note that the restaurant and rooftop bar are closed Sunday and Monday. We were given a choice of room on the quiet side, or city view. Our fourth floor city view room was great, but a lower floor would not be much of a view. Front desk staff was quick, friendly snd helpful with directions, suggestions and reservations. The city has great charm, history and the Christmas market was wonderful.

After all, it is five stars and the hardware is good. The room is big enough and the breakfast is rich enough, especially the friendly staff. The underground car park is very convenient, with 16 Euros overnight, and it is 16 Euros when you go in and out several times during the day. The only thing is that there is no medical first aid kit, and the child has fallen without a disinfectant. . . . There is a park nearby and children like it.

I couldn’t find anything I didn’t like about this hotel or location insofar as location, cleanliness or staff. In fact, the breakfast was so far superior to ANY Hampton at home (in US) as to be comical. Huge assortment of choices. The room was huge, quiet and very clean (think floorboards, bathroom tile, and closet!) Alas, they have (unfortunately) adopted the US practice of using COVID to cut costs. There is apparently no housekeeping on weekends, so they put a cart out with supplies. Give me a break. The ersatz fireplace in the lobby is silly and the sliding bathroom doors at European Hamptons continue to annoy. But overall, a very superior product

Though we weren't expecting our rooms to be in the Kasteel itself, the accommodation in the modern blocks was corporate and dingy and though described as ”deluxe with a balcony” had no views of the ancient pile or anything of particular interest. To be honest, I have stayed in more interesting Travel Lodges in the UK and paid half the price. The whole place oozed mediocrity, from the check-in clerk who volunteered no recommendations on how to experience the Kasteel which was, in effect, sealed off to tourists, to our bathroom which had no natural light or air and a shower situated in the bath. All very disappointing. Dinner in the Old Water Mill was marred by a delay of 25 minutes before we saw a menu and extremely long gaps between courses which we put down to a shortage of kitchen staff or maybe a lack of english menus; both seemed plausible. The food itself was high quality/mid-range though definitely not gourmet or fine-dining. Oddly, Limburg wines were not included on the wine list but a very limited number of bottles from the best promoted vineyard in the region were available by the glass on request. The entremet was literally inedible though I appreciated the free glass of dessert wine I was given in compensation. Service had its faults such as asking us what we wanted to drink before we had been given any kind of drinks/wine list but was generally characterised by a sincere effort to provide attentive service. We opted not to have the breakfast buffet at 23 euros a throw and though the check-out clerk verbally acknowledged we hadn't partaken, somehow he included a line item on the bill ”breakfast excluded” which added 46 euros to the bill (yes, added) which we only discovered as we prepared to drive off. Utter stupidity and a symbolically apt end to our misadventure at Kasteel Vaalsbroek.

A stay in Castle TerWorm is really an experience. From the moment you get the field, you feel the special atmosphere. The castle has a beautiful garden, making you immediately enter a delicious “relax mode”. The service is top. The staff is friendly and professional, they make you feel welcome. Eating in the restaurant was a whole culinary experience, the dishes were creative and each plate was a picture. The wine choice was excellent, including expert advice from the sommelier. TerWorm offers a unique experience where luxury, comfort and gastronomy meet. It is the ideal place for those looking for a special outfit. Absolute advisor!!
