Het totale plaatje, het onderkomen de locatie, de ouderwetse

The room were too hot like sauna and the ventilator couldn’t improve much, there was no room service, furthermore the staff are not so friendly and

* Réservation express via Booking moins de deux heures avant d'arriver, pour une dernière nuit imprévue avant de rentrer en France, après mes vacances en Allemagne, avec un tarif "dernière minute" très compétitif * Une vraie joie de revenir dans cette abbaye deux ans et demi après ma dernière visite, le décor reste exceptionnel * Hôtel très calme, j'ai donc bien dormi * Bonne connexion WIFI dans le bâtiment 6

Le confort de la chambre dans le bâtiment 6 (où je n'avais encore jamais dormi par le passé) est encore plus spartiate que dans les chambres individuelles au dessus de la réception, mais comme je connaissais déjà cet hôtel je n'ai été ni surpris ni déçu.

Locatie. Prachtige binnenplaats, waar je tot 's avonds laat heerlijk kunt zitten onder genot van een drankje. In een historische omgeving die je raakt.

Zalig ontbijd en lekker bier

De gevraagde artikelen (kinderbedje) was niet klaar en heeft wegens te weinig personeel nog tot 20u geduurd voor we er een hadden….en ondanks alles netjes betaald was kwam de dame van de receptie in het midden van de eetzaal even zeggen dat er een rekening niet betaald was…. Was beschaamd…. Vond dit niet professioneel…..

Locatie

Geen koelkastje op de kamer en het barretje buiten ging al om 21 uur dicht terwijl er nog heel veel klanten buiten zaten.

Mooie omgeving

🇬🇧 ENGLISH ABDIJ HOTEL ROLDUC, KERKRADE Have you ever wanted to feel like Harry Potter, a medieval monk, or Adso from The Name of the Rose? Then welcome to Abdij Hotel Rolduc. The formula is simple. Arrive during daylight. Take hundreds of photographs. Photograph the abbey. Photograph the gardens. Photograph the towers. Photograph yourself staring thoughtfully into the distance as if you’ve discovered inner peace and enlightenment. Upload everything to Facebook and Instagram. Your friends will think you’ve spent the weekend in a magical European retreat. Little will they know. Because once night falls, reality arrives carrying a medieval battle axe. For the princely sum of approximately €150 per night, you are invited to experience the authentic monastic lifestyle. And by “authentic,” I mean sharing toilets and showers with complete strangers. Yes. One hundred and fifty euros. Shared facilities. In 2026. At that price I wasn’t expecting Buckingham Palace, but I was at least hoping for a toilet that didn’t require a small pilgrimage through monastery corridors. The room itself resembles a monk’s cell that has survived several centuries, two world wars, and at least one failed renovation project. The walls appear to have been constructed from recycled parchment. By midnight, you’ll know more about your neighbour’s lungs, digestive system, sleeping habits, and personal life than some members of their own family. The gentleman next door spent the entire night coughing with the determination of a Victorian tuberculosis patient trying to break an Olympic record. Every cough, sneeze, snore, creak, and mysterious nocturnal sound arrived in crystal-clear audio. Dolby Surround Monastery Edition. The furniture appears to have been sourced from a government office that closed sometime around 1972. The smell is a fascinating blend of old cigarette smoke, damp stone, and the lingering spirit of several million Dutch croquettes. Outside, breathtaking.
