Hotels near DeGroeneZakjes, Amersfoort

Ik verbleef één nachtje in dit hele nette hostel. Ik had de beschikking over een compacte, redelijk schone kamer. De kamer was eenvoudig met een (verrassend comfortabel) stapelbed een open kast en een tafeltje met twee stoelen. De kamer beschikt over een eenvoudige douche/toiletcombinatie met wastafel, de uitvoering hiervan deed me denken aan een camping., maar voldeed prima. Ontbijt was basic maar vers en okay. Het hostel beschikt over een bar en je kunt er (op reservering) dineren. De ligging nabij de Soester Duinen, in een bosrijk gebied is prachtig, klein nadeel daarvan is dat het centrum zich op enige afstand bevindt. Denk er wel om dat je bij een “basic-kamer” zelf je bed moet opmaken en je je eigen handdoeken en toiletartikelen moet meebrengen.

We haven't been back to this hotel for over 2 years and it was better than ever this time. We got upgraded to a suite as a Diamond member which is always nice. The newly renovated rooms are well done and super clean. It was nice to see that the hotel menu for dinner has gone back to a more classic Hilton style menu which we like. Based on this we decided to eat at the hotel and were very impressed. The quality of the food and taste were great. The waiter had a nice balance and flow. We had the Caesar Salad with chicken, Fish and Chips, steamed asparagus and the cheese platter for dessert. Breakfast was very good as usual and many of the staff from a few years ago are still there so felt like home. All in all a very well run hotel from top to bottom. It's a great base to explore the area in terms of hiking and biking.

Pros: The restaurant and its staff are incredibly nice, open until 9pm (past that, they only serve main dishes) and the meals we had were top notch; we even got a comp'ed appetizer. The pool and spa are open until 11pm and we took advantage of that. There is a table tennis table and a pool table. We had a few extra coffee pods and tea bags added to our closet that they had placed there as extras (no cost to us). You are also close to the Austerlitz Pyramid (just down the road), which is nice to visit (note that this is not the Austerlitz where the 1805 battle took place, just a monument built in 1804 by Auguste de Marmont's soldiers, renamed ”the Pyramid of Austerlitz” in 1806 after Napoleon Bonaparte's 1805 Austerlitz victory). Cons: The facility seems to be ”old world chique” and does appeal to a certain clientele. Due to the way this hotel/restaurant was built and added to over the years, it is quite the labyrinth. If you want to get to the pool, you will have to arm yourself with patience. Moreover, the signs are in Dutch only and the signage is not well done (see the pool reference). Breakfast cost at the time, 18.50 Euro and we skipped it, since there are a few supermarkets and bakeries in the area (car or bike required). Now, our main con was that we reserved a room for 4 adults and we confirmed with a King and 2 twin beds... the fourth bed was a foldable cot or ”camping” bed. The mattress was no more than 2 inches thick and 1 inch once you laid on to it. Needless to say that that person had a rough night. There is no food ordering from outside the hotel, like Uber. The Wi-Fi was really bad from our room. They limit you to 4 coffee pods (a day (based on our total occupancy) and you need to pay if you want more.

Hotel got a refurb this year, and looks nice on paper. Staff very service minded, BUT that is also to cater for a few shortcomings. * Pool/sauna great, but they lack pool towels. Asking reception or housekeeping for an extra one on the room is just cumbersome. * Restaurant 'Baron' has nice HB dinners, a la carte also looks fine. But nothing like an amuse or bread with oil with the drinks, then the wait for the meal courses is long. Great staff, they found a replacement dessert for us as the standard offer was not our taste. Spacious rooms, often with shared balcony. Great buffet breakfast. Good free walking and biking routes.

I hardly recommend this hotel ✨ The breakfast was very good. The staf was really lovely, always smiling and willing to help. The place was peaceful and beautiful. I loved the room as wel. The pillow I didn't like much (too big) but that's very personal I guess. The rest was perfect. It was silent and cozy. A big thanks for this weekend!

We have stayed there twice and both times the service and food was the best you could ask for. All staff are very friendly and helpful. The rooms are always kept clean and we always feel saft staying there and the price is great. If you need a place to stay in Zeist NL. you need to look no farther than the Hotel Theater Figi ” it's the best” Van and Linda Scott

I stayed in one of the luxury (superior) suites. They may cost a bit more, but I think its worth it. A complete home from home. Everything you can expect, a great bed, a shower with lots of power. Some free drinks in the mini-bar. Fruit and nibbles on the table. A nice sofa to sit on. (I suspect it can be transformed into an extra bed). The room itself is a separate building. The more standard rooms of in small blocks of about five rooms. This gives plenty of privacy. The rooms all have private access from the beautiful gardens outside. What was nice to see was that everything was being well maintained. The gardeners were busy, the patios were being cleaned, etc. All the chairs in the restaurant had been renewed. A great time was had.

Overall good, close to the company, will choose this hotel next time on business trip.
