Hotels near Kapel O-L-V van Lourdes, Maasmechelen

The pillows are not comfortable. The heat stopped early morning and the room went cold and disrupt my sleep. There is room to improve the breakfast. Giving the exact time for the breakfast in advance and within short interval is hard to predict..most hotels give a breakfast time interval of 3 hours without fix attend. The staff are very awsum and give you the luxury impression. Very clean and calm. Location is very good

The grounds and buildings of this property are breathtakingly beautiful, like a film set that could never be real. The staff exude an air of formal, graceful professionalism. The surrounding region (drive the rural route to Val Dieu abbey) is comprised of mile after mile of impossibly beautiful agrarian hills and valleys dotted with perfect little towns like Teuven. There is a quiet restaurant and bar at the Chateau but the town of Valkenberg just up the street has a collection of livelier bars and restaurants. The buffet breakfast on the property is excellent. Visitors accustomed to the speed and sharp edges of modern life will need to adjust here. Time seems to move more slowly. Our rooms were gigantic, bigger than many apartments and the attached patio overlooked an orchard. The small kitchen had an oven/microwave, electric range and small refrigerator. The furnishings, however, were from another era. They were in pristine condition and comfortable and staying in the room was a step back in time by about a century. Not a complaint at all. Miles of nature and cycling trails start and end from the chateau that apparently sits within a wildlife preserve. The region appears to be a hub for competitive cycling and roads leading in all directions are calling to be ridden. Stay here, breathe the fresh air, wander through the trails and art installations. Turn down the speed of life. Don’t expect to come here for a dance club, fitness center or urban experience of any kind.

The good: - Excellent base to walk and bike in the beautiful surroundings! - Very good food in the restaurant, traditional French, price is something on the top. - Very attentive and pleasant staff, very good! - Good Wifi coverage and no streaming issues - The area of the Junior Suite is spacious enough - Not suitable for January, but the garden and outdoors look attractive. The bad: - The hotel is dated. - The junior suite was very dark, dark, not attractive and very unhappy furnished. - Uncomfortable sitting/bedroom. Not to get a good sitting. - The TV hangs on a screw in the door between bedroom and home room, particularly unhappy! Only Belgian broadcasters, too, take a Chromecast oid. - The beds, they are advertised with one big bed, you get two beds on wheels separately. Super uncomfortable. - The beds are extremely soft and smooth, through? - There is a lot of little and not properly prepared lighting It is really not a disaster, but certainly no place to go to celebrate something together ....

I was extremely satisfied by my stay at Thermae 2000. Located on a mountain in Valkenburg, the panoramic views and the natural beauty of the surroundings give a great sense of serenity. The hotel is very comfortable. Each room, fully equipped and well maintained, has a little terrasse with a peaceful view on the forest. Built as a pyramid, it is the only hotel I know that has a little funicular instead of a lift to go from one floor to another. The staff in general, and especially in the hotel and the various restaurants, are always smiling, polite and seem to care and be happy to work in this place. They will make you feel welcome and comfortable, and attend to your every request with a smile. The spa facilities are very extensive, super clean and well maintained, and you can choose from a variety of options to suit your mood and needs. There are pools inside and outside and a very large choice of saunas, steam baths and water treatments as well as lots of space outside to relax and cool down. Throughout the day, free group activities are proposed. The spa treatments are very professional and enjoyable. The therapists are skilled and pleasant. All the rooms are clean, well maintained and provide the perfect atmosphere to relax and feel pampered. I tried the gastronomic restaurant for dinner (« Pure”) and it was perfect. The Indian lady Executive Chef has a very inventive, superbly presented, sophisticated and tasty cuisine. It is a bit expensive but worth every penny. The dishes are creative, fresh and flavourful, and the service is impeccable and reasonably quick – although the restaurant was full on that night. (It is advisable to book in advance) Overall experience: Perfect for a special occasion. I believe, it is one of the best spa resorts in the Netherlands and among the best in Europe. I personally truly unwinded and enjoyed every minute of my stay.

We stayed here for 3 nights during Christmas, as we were visiting family nearby. The hotel and room do look lovely, as per the advertised pictures. There is ample parking and the breakfast is really good. However we felt let down after our stay. Our room (number 28) was really cold, all the time. There was no central heating, only an aircon unit that we occassionally got to blow out heat, but it never warmed the room completely. The bathroom was freezing cold and never dried fully. There is a wind up heating unit in the bathroom that needs to be wound up but it doesn’t dry anything. The bed didn’t have a proper matress, only a thin foam layer on top of a spring box set. Upon arrival (on 24/12), we didn’t receive the warmest welcome. We arrived in what seemed a closed hotel and had to ring the reception bell twice and wait a long time, before someone appeared and rushed us through check-in. It being Christmas eve, you’d expect something extra, a lovely message or an invitation to join the bar for festivities. But in the first sentence we were told abruptly the restaurant would be closed for the next couple of days due to Christmas. So it wasn’t the welcome we expected. All other moments we passed the reception/bar area, it was unmanned. During our stay, it honestly felt more like serviced rooms than a hotel. Which is fine if that’s what you’re looking for, but we booked a hotel during Christmas to get the hotel experience. Christmas or any other holiday should not be an excuse.

The room was very clean! No super big room but sure everything you need was present! Even free 2 small bottles of water and coffee and tea! Breakfast was top!! It was a buffet with a lot of delicious and very extensive! Amai! The hotel was very nice to make a good job, and the hotel was very nice to make a good job. The hotel is just at the station but you have no burden of train noise! Our window was often open and we really have no trains to pass! We will certainly go back to that hotel!
