Heusden Gem Asten accommodation from AU$128

My favourite go to hotel on way home or out to Europe. Always a warm welcome, special requests listened to , staff super helpful

The hotel is on the edge of a business park but do not be put off by that as it is relatively close to bars and restaurants in adjacent Veldhoven. It has a large secure car park which has controlled access over night, worth knowing if travelling by motorcycle. The staff were really friendly and helpful and check in was a breeze. The rooms are accessed via lift or stairs to external balconies which means there are no internal corridors. We had a king size room with the usual huge Dutch bed which was really comfy. The shower room was bright and clean with one of the most powerful showers I've ever used; brace yourself. The only minor criticism is that the ambient lighting in the room was great but there wasn't any option for brighter ceiling room lights which may be a problem for some. Also the wardrobe was just a few hangers on a rail and 4 pigeon holes; some drawers and coat hooks would have been handy but we were only there for 3 nights and we managed. The hotel/reception/bar/restaurant are is very pleasant, clean and comfy with a mix of sofas, chairs and stools. We ate in there for 2 evenings (it would have been 3 but they don't do food on Sundays apart from breakfast; worth noting)The food was excellent with a varied choice on the menu plus daily specials. We made the mistake of not booking our breakfast when we booked the rooms as we weren't too sure if it would be worth it. Do it, it's cheaper if you do and you won't regret it.Great choice of cold meats and cheeses etc.
