Hotels near Mont Chèvre, Kerkrade

We stayed for 2 nights, the room for 3 was basic but very spacious, comfortable beds, how ever the bathroom area has no door, the wc and shower both have a glass door that you can totally see through, and hear everything, very embarrassing! The hotel is very big and the food is great, breakfast, dinner, drinks- all nice and not too expensive. The service was not good, our room wasn’t ready when we got there, and when we finally got to it, the third bed wasn’t ready (no towels too), the breakfast payment was very hectic, and finally when it rained they wouldn’t open the gate for us to go in the parking area because “the parking is flooded “, after 5 (!) calls on the intercom, we managed to drive in and found a small puddle, not even close to a flood (our other car wasn’t even wet!). It was really stupid and rude and just unnecessary.

Excellent! We arrived a little early but it was no bother and we were checked in swiftly by a very kind and professional receptionist; she was very helpful too with a great sense of humour. The rooms are very nice, big and clean and the bathroom is big, with a choice of shower heads and a separate bath. The breakfast buffet offers A LOT of options and I was impressed, it would have been perfect if they’d have served vegetarian sausages but that’s me being incredibly picky. Check out was swift plus you can also check out online or leave your keys in a drop box. There is ample parking and the location is very good as you are just off the motorway between Belgium and Germany. We booked directly with them so they offered us a little treat which was super nice. I thoroughly recommend this hotel; the parking, rooms and staff are very, very good!

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

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

I stayed here, with my brothers, for 4 nights/5 days to meet up with 2 other brothers and family/friends. We had an excellent stay, made even better by the service of Nina and Marcus who were very, very helpful, friendly and NOTHING was ever a bother, especially Nina. They are an absolute assett to this hotel and I hope the hotel recognise this. Everything else within the hotel, including staff, accomodation and facilities were great. Nice (small) pool outside, within walking distance of the town centre (20 mins approx) Danke Mercure Europlatz

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.

I stayed for over a week at the Novotel in Aachen while on a business trip. The hotel is ideally situated next to a great shopping area. Parking is super easy and you need to use our card key to access the elevator. The same card key access is required to enter the lobby after hours. Seems very secure and safe. Front desk staff were very friendly and helpful. My room as an ”executive” room on the 4th floor, was on a corner and had floor to ceiling windows. What I liked: - Very quiet room - Comfortable bed - Mini-fridge with window and free daily drinks and snacks (5 Item selection including wine and beer) - Great desk setup with memory foam chair - Good TV with external HDMI input - Real glasses in the room - Bathroom wall mounted soap dispenser + other amenities - Nespresso machine with pods and cream To improve - WiFi, even though i was on the premium plan, the signal was weak to moderate - No USB ports - Water pressure just ok - Bathroom sink has not much counter space - AirCon only goes so low (perhaps 24/25?) as other reviewers have noted TIP: If you arrive on a Sunday to Aachen, almost everything is closed, however, towns in Netherlands are as close as a 20 minute drive and most stores are open from noon on Sunday

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 loved the location. Not a bad walk from the train station and heheh you are just at the edge of the good stuff- an old German restaurant next door, the Cathedral a block or 2 around the corner. The bar wasn’t as appealing as some as the other Motel Ones I’ve been too- a little more business feeling. But I’ve come to love the color and decor scheme of this chain. Always super quiet and serene.

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.
