Superb hotel, extremely kind and accommodating staff. Loved the breakfast, free bicycle use, beach towels, beautiful garden and walking trails. Dinner was of good quality and reasonable value, especially the wine. The hotel is well positioned relative to the town centre and swimmable Almind Lake.

Dejligt ophold. Vi spiste i orangeriet, bare en hovedret og dessert, det smagte skønt, men ventetiden var meget lang. Det søde personale undskyldte på grund af travlhed, der var helt fyldt op. Hovedpuderne er ikke ret gode og sengetøjet (dynerne ?) var alt for varme. Vi havde vindue og dør halvåbne og det var 14 grader udenfor. Dejlig morgenmad med hjemmebagte boller og skønne omgivelser. Der er en kort gåtur ned til åen med masser af liv og både.

Schone en ruime accommodatie. Wel ouderwets en gedateerd. Internet is zeer langzaam, onveilig en soms niet goed werkend. Ontbijtzaal ongezellig met veel grote tafels. Goed voor 1 of 2 nachten. Voldoende parkeerruimte. Prima personeel.
