Guest Reviews
- Janet (8/5): - Basic accommodation near two supermarkets easy walk to efteling theme park
- Tina (8/5): - Wir waren das zweite Mal hier und dieses Mal im Altbau untergebracht. Das Zimmer war großzügig, jedoch sehr warm. Zwar gibt es einen Deckenventilator, das Fenster lässt sich jedoch nur kippen. Daher ist es rund um die Uhr sehr sehr warm.
Das Doppelbett bestand aus 2 Einzelbetten, die sich immer wieder verschoben haben. Bei einem Doppelbett eher ungüstig. 2 von 3 Duschgelspendern waren den ganzen Aufenthalt leer.
Nichtsdestotrotz ein tolles Hotel, super nah an Efteling mit netten Angestellten.
- Bilal (8/5): Decent size for the price - Basic option, close to Efteling
- Sabine (8/5): - Perfect accomondation to visit Efteling. You can park there and it is only a short walk to the park.
- Verified traveler (8/5): - Uiterst goed gelegen, net wat je nodig hebt!
- Saverio (10/5): - Tutto bene, solo il blocco dove avevo la camera era un po' da sistemare nei luoghi comuni.
- Ahad (2/5): - Closed when we arrived
- Ian (8/5): - Very close to Efteling, No air conditioning, just a fan stuck on one setting, budget accommodation and nothing extra
- Solenne (6/5): Séjour Efteling - Chambre sale et mal entretenue
Moisissure dans la douche, drap avec des cheveux.
Le personnel est souriant et sympathique
- Kevin (8/5): - Ideal for what are requirements were, would recommend. Breakfast was a great selection, rooms are comfortable.
- Sophie (10/5): - Accueil très agréable.
Il faudrait réparer le gouttière extérieure car nous avons eu de la pluie et nous avons eu les cliquetis de l'eau tombant sur la lumière extérieure.
Pas très bien isolé phonétiquement.
- Dick (10/5): - Nette plek, sfeervol.
- Sang-Hun (10/5): - Super wenn man zum Efteling Park geht.
- Thilo (6/5): - Lage für Efteling perfekt. Personal sehr gründlich. Zimmer ziemlich abgewohnt.
- Elinor (8/5): - Staff at the guesthouse were really helpful and welcoming and have good recommendations of places nearby. Was a bit unclear where to go on arrival and would have been nice to be emailed before we arrived so we knew to check in at the partner property
- Wolfgang (4/5): - Leider waren wir nicht im Haupthotel, sondern im Altbau untergebracht, ein Nebengebäude einen Block weiter. Der ist geschätzt seit 25 Jahren nur nur notdürftig renoviert worden. Alles war veraltet und es war heiß ohne Ende und gab keine Klimaanlage. Ein Deckenventilator brachte kaum eine Wirkung. Im Haupthotel war die Rezeption von den Deutschkenntnissen mittelmäßig, je nach Personal. Das Frühstück und das Abendessen im Restaurant war eigentlich nicht wirklich gut. Es gab englisches Frühstück mit Fertigprodukten. Genauso war es beim Abendessen. Die Bar und der Spielbereich waren schön. Die neuen Zimmer im Haupthotel konnten wir leider nicht begutachten.
- Martine (6/5): Chambre dans un fournil... - Accueil non chaleureux par le personnel, chambre horriblement chaude avec un ventilateur qui tourne trop lentement donc difficile de dormir, propreté de la douche douteuse, par contre chambre très spacieuse et literie très confortable donc dommage pour la chaleur étouffante de la chambre..
- Saskia (8/5): - Kleine, aber feine Unterkunft, kostengünstig und in Laufnähe zu Efteling.
Einzig der Schimmel in der Dusche und die etwas schwierig zu schließende Tür zur kleinen Terrasse wären ein Minuspunkt.
- Martin (8/5): - Nice Hotel, close to the Park, superfriendly personal and ok for to stay close by the park
- Manuela (8/5): - Das Zimmer war sauber nur etwas klein für 4 Personen. Das Badezimmer war auch sehr sauber. Es gab noch so eine kleine Terasse mit Sitzgelegenheit. Wir waren für eine Nacht da und im ganzen hat alles gepasst
- Jake (10/5): - The property's proximity to Efteling is great! Perfect to spend a day at the park then unwind at the hotel's various lounges and restaurants with excellent staff! It's easy to get to and from Hotel de Kroon and the GuestHouse hotel. Overall we had a great stay!
- Verified traveler (8/5): Nice stay - We enjoyed our two nights. We were in the economy part across from main hotel. Chose because of begging closer to Efteling, only a 5-8 minute walk to entrance.
Lovely room, modern and clean. Shower bit weak with pressure.
Staff we saw and spoke to were very friendly and helpful.
Buffet breakfast really good selection.
- Magdalene (6/5): - Zu teuer für 1 kleines enges Zimmer
- Anouk (6/5): - Prima hotel voor een nachtje!
- Damelza (6/5): - 3 night stay in a twin room.
Pros: Free ample parking, genuinely a 10 min walk to Efteling, great supermarket on site, nice staff at reception / restaurant, clean bedding, hot shower etc.
Cons: This hotel is an offshoot of the larger hotel opposite, which presents itself much better. My room (14) was in what felt like a youth hostel and the windows overlooked various flat roofs. Didn’t look like the photos. Doors slam shut and noise could be heard from the boiler all night. Unfortunately we came back after a long day to find our room door wide open after the cleaner had been in. They’d turned the lock to avoid it shutting (I assume) and didn’t reverse this before leaving. A scary moment!
I’d stay here again, but not in this old building. The bigger hotel opposite looked much nicer. This place reminded me of a school trip situation! I saw some signage downstairs that said ‘budget hotel’ or similar and this wasn’t clear when I booked.
- Kieran (8/5): Great value and clean hotel. - Perfect budget accommodation. Link to guesthouse hotel provides excellent facilities and service.
- Bert (8/5): - Het was zeer netjes en goed vriendelijk personeel
- Hamid (6/5): - Zu teuer ,zimmer klein, nicht mal Wasserkocher oder Kühlschrank im Zimmer gewesen.
- Jacqueline (8/5): - Was goed en netjes
- Anouck (10/5): - Fijne locatie, dichtbij Efteling met prima ontbijt
- Miriam (10/5): - De kamer is voldoende. Enige nadeel is dat ik naar de overkant moet voor n kop koffie
- Angelo (8/5): - Leuk en mooi ingerichte kamer
- Marieke (8/5): - Prima verblijf, lekker diner en ontbijt.
De kamer was volgens verwachting, misschien alleen een keer de kitrand in de douche vervangen.
Verder was het wel schoon en oogde alles vrij recent opgeknapt.
- Noortje (4/5): - Veel geluidsoverlast van deuren die dicht slaan en pratende mensen op de gang. De verwarming tikte aan een stuk door. Badkamer erg klein, geen raam en moest een flinke opstap maken. Kamer erg warm ondanks dat we verwarming hadden uitgezet en geen raam dat veilig open kon. Matrassen veel te zacht.
- Patricia (8/5): - Keurig hotel, goede bedden, lekker ontbijt.
- Carolus (8/5): Goede ligging en verder keurig hotel - Prima ligging op loopafstand van de Efteling.
- Sabine (8/5): - Great budget hotel close to the Efteling. Clean and renovated rooms. We did not use the added breakfast which you get in the hotel next door but instead went to get some things in the Albert Heijn which is next door.
- Joseph (8/5): - Prima locatie voor een (paar) overnachting(en) bij een bezoek aan Kaatsheuvel e.o. en/of de Efteling!
- Roy (10/5): - Nette en schone kamers. Op mooie loopafstand naar de Efteling. Makkelijk te bereiken met de auto. Heerlijke bedden.
- Claudy (10/5): - Tres belle chambre manque un peu d acoustique
- Jan (8/5): - Basic hotel in Kaatsheuvel naast allerhande winkels. Parkeergelegnheid ruim aanwezig. Late incheck mogelijkheid ook ideaal icm bezoek Efteling. Voor de prijs kan je soebatten of er ook een ontbijt bij zou moeten zitten. Kamer was overigens zeer ruim.
- Paula (8/5): - Prima kamer, goede matrassen.
Alleen een opmerking over het inchecken, daarin staat beschreven dat je dat kan doen vanaf 1500. Dit is pas om 1600, onze kamer was al klaar dus geen probleem.
- Hanne (8/5): - Alles was in orde en verzorgd. Wat we wel enorm hebben gemist is een kleine koelkast. Zeker met warm weer. Om water en beleg koel te houden.
- Martin (10/5): - Nice Hotel, had everything you need for an short stay! We visited the Efterlingen park … nice place to have fun!!! Rooms are quite good, clean and quite! Park in short distance, about 750m away!
- Kyra (10/5): - Vriendelijk goed personeel en heerlijke matrassen!
- Manon (8/5): - Nette zeer schone kamer. Wel krap en warm voor 2 volwassenen en 2 kinderen.
- Degryse (10/5): - Het is een aangenaam hotel, vriendelijk en behulpzaam. De kamers zijn proper en net!
- Sita (4/5): - De kamer was prima voor 2 personen maar met twee kinderen erbij veel te klein. En dat noemt zich op de site een luxe kamer. Helaas voelde dat niet zo. De bedden 3 en 4 moesten uitgeschoven worden waardoor je als ouder je bed niet meer uit kon komen en het bed paste amper daar omdat er ook een bureau stond. En als je bewoog rolde die weer gedeeltelijk onder het bed. Dus voor familiekamers zeker niet een voldoende! Voor de rest was alles prima!
- Esther (10/5): - Wij hebben een erg prettig verblijf gehad. De kamer was schoon en alles was aanwezig wat we nodig hadden!
- Peter (6/5): - Mein Zimmer war alt und abgenutzt.
- Jan (8/5): - Kamer en voorzieningen oké.
- Marco Franz Josef (8/5): - Nettes Personal bis auf einen jungen Mann am Frühstücksbüffett, der offenbar ein Problem mit deutschen Touristen hatte. Da wir fliessendes Englisch sprachen (was er offenbar nicht verstand), zuckte er nur die resignierend die Schultern und stellte jegliche Kommunikation ein um uns danach permanent den Rücken zuzudrehen. Schade. Seine Kollegin war dann umso bemühter, aber so ein unhöfliches Verhalten konnte auch sie nicht mehr wettmachen. Sehr, sehr Schade...
- LEONARDO GONZALO NAZARENO (10/5): Bom - Quarto confortável, boa localização, tem um mercado de lado, estacionamento gratuito, fomos caminhando para Efteling.
- Natalie (4/5): - Wir als Familie würden da nicht nochmal übernachten.
Viel zu eng
- Nicole (10/5): - Moderne, schone kamer met fijne bedden. Op loopafstand van de efteling.
- Gaëtane (4/5): - Dure kamers
- Rosana (8/5): - Buenas instalaciones. Habitaciones muy confortables
- Verified traveler (6/5): Habitacion diminuta. - La foto da la apariencia de que la habitacion es mas grande pero el cuarto es diminuto. No tiene aire acondicionado y era demasiado caliente.
- Karen (2/5): - Good location, nice restaurant , room is so hot its unbearable . No fan provided in the middle of summer and there is only a back door for ventilation which unless you open fully you can’t get enough air in. There is an an option to have it on a slight slant leaving the door then locked however in the middle of the summer it isn’t enough.
We had no choice but to leave the door fully open which is not safe and secure. Each room leads onto a small patio which is over gown and you are able to walk to each property. By this being in place and our door open to Cool the room down we had one of the other guests coming into the patio area and approach our door. Completely unsafe and by having something simple like a fab provided in the room this could’ve been avoided.
When asked if there was a fan staff declined. Unfortunately between 4 of us we got about 2 hrs sleep which isn’t ideal when you have a long journey ahead of you.
Other than being ridiculously hot in the room it was clean, beds were comfortable and overall a nice place to stay. One added benefit would be a drinks vending machine as nearest place is the other hotel bar/ restaurant across the car park.
- Rijk (4/5): - Beds are really thin and bed linnen made from sweaty material. No airco. Heating far too hot. The guest house looks nice but they have not invested in proper beds.
- stephanie (6/5): Good value for the price - Check in and personal very friendly
Supermarket very close
Bed very comfortable
Free parking on the site
5 min walk to efteling
But omg no insonorisation !!!
- Theodorus (8/5): - Great location near Efteling including parking.
Needed to get get room key at a different location, 50m away. Hotel itself was a bit ghostlike compared to that location
- Verified traveler (8/5): - Quiet vicinity .. homey feeling.. pillows are soft matteess great!! We enjoyed our stay!
- Verified traveler (8/5): Great location for Efteling visit - We stayed at Hotel De Kroon for one night whilst in the area to visit Efteling Theme Park.
As we arrived by public transport into Efteling Bus Station, we made short five minute walk by foot to the hotel.
We stayed in a corner room with a balcony over the entrance to the hotel, which we utilised in the evening after buying some drinks from the nearby Albert Heijn supermarket.
Our only criticism of our stay was that as the weather was hot and the room didn’t have any air-conditioning (only a ceiling fan) we didn’t have the best night’s sleep with it being warm.
We didn’t use the bar and restaurant facilities at the hotel choosing to eat out in Kaatsheuvel.
- Verified traveler (6/5): Fine for families with young children - Lovely little hotel, with very friendly staff that I would say is made for families with young children as it closes down at 10pm and you're moved into the darkened breakfast room. On more than one occasion kids would come down after 10pm wondering why everything was in darkness. As we weren't getting back from Efteling until 8,30pm (late opening times) we ate across the road or via Lidl. If you're a little on the large size you'll find the single beds very narrow.
- Eva (6/5): Could do wirh a makeover - Reception closed between 13.00 and 17.00. Old family hotel. Playroom for children, but untidy snd neglected.Beds and cushions uncomfortable.
- Verified traveler (10/5): Very Good - The room was shiny and clean, nice breakfast and very nice staff.
- Elida (2/5): - Very disappointing
- Robert (10/5): Pefrect place for family going to Efteling. - Perfect spot for a family vacation at Efteling park. Easy walking distance to the park and also to the restaurants in town. Extremely friendly and helpful staff. Room was cosy and comfortable. Playroom for the kids was a bonus so parents can have a coffee or a beer in peace.
- lynda (10/5): excellent location - lovely small hotel very close to efteling many thanks to all the staff especially rudd for helping me out
- Stuart (10/5): Great hotel for Efteling - We stayed at this hotel for 2 nights while taking the children to Efteling, which is a 10 minute walk away.
The staff were really friendly and welcoming, full of recommendations of where to go and practical tips.
The family room was comfortable with two single beds and a bunk bed for the children. Downstairs, there is a coffee machine offering complimentary drinks, and a play room with table football and air hockey.
Breakfast was continental, and there was a good choice of food.
There is plenty of parking, and the hotel is about a 10 minute walk to the smallish town centre which had a few places to eat.
- Michela (10/5): - Upon arrival at Hotel de Kroon, the staff was welcoming and incredibly helpful in showing us around the hotel, and giving us advice on dinner locations. Most of the staff we interacted with had some connection to Efteling, and gave us their thoughts on how to organize our day in the park. The hotel seems to have something for every age group, and is particularly family-oriented, but has a bar and free coffee and tea in the lobby, which we definitely took advantage of during our rainy stay. I highly recommend this hotel to anyone considering an alternative to the costly Efteling hotels.
- Verified traveler (10/5): Lovely friendly hotel near Efteling! - We stayed at this hotel for 3 nights due to the proximity to Efteling. It was a perfect location, being only 5 minutes walk from the theme park and bus stops.
From the moment we arrived, we felt very welcome due to the friendly English speaking staff who were super helpful. The room was basic but had everything we needed for a pleasant stay. The beds were softer than I prefer but only a minor point, as it was still comfortable.
The buffet breakfast included was the usual continental style with plenty to fill us up before a day in the park! The hotel had excellent WiFi in the rooms. There was a supermarket around the corner and several restaurants nearby.
I would recommend this hotel to anyone wanting to stay near Efteling.
- Ken (10/5): Great Little Hotel, Great Location Near Efteling - From Amsterdam we took the train to s-Hertogenbosch, which took about 50 minutes, then switched to the 300 bus directly to the Efteling parking entrance (another 30 minutes). Getting to Hotel De Kroon was a 7 minute walk in the opposite direction from Efteling.
We had a corner room that was very nice and included a private balcony.
What really set this hotel apart from others we've been to was the staff. In particular, Ruud and Vieveke, who we feel really went out of their way to make us feel welcome.
Hotel De Kroon is located in the town of Kaatsheuvel - It has a wonderful combination of old-world charm and modern conveniences. Much less hectic than Amsterdam.
- Emily (8/5): Perfect location, hot room - The only reason I would give this less than full marks is because there was no air conditioning and the wind never made it into our room and the bathroom was boiling hot!!! The location to the Efteling was PERFECT! The staff was AMAZING! I would recommend, but bring a fan or stay in the cooler months!
