Lovely friendly hotel.
This is a lovely hotel with big rooms which are very clean. The staff are very friendly and helpful and nothing is too much trouble for them. The food in the restaurant was beautiful and good sized portions. We will definitely be visiting again!

Disappointing
Room was extremely small with children’s single bed. First room I went into the washbasin did not drain. They moved me into another room after I already unpacked. I stay at various Van Der Valk hotels quite often and usually get free upgrades. I didn’t even know rooms this small exist outside of Japan!!

It was clean, good WiFi, balcony and close to my job site. I had the do not disturb sign on my door most days but the staff still left a bag with fresh towels, coffee and soap every time. Great hotel. Could t ask for more.

Nice, modern hotel but pricey for room service
Nice hotel which is kept modern and in good decor. I've used this hotel a few times over the years which reflects how comfortable I am with it. In room wifi worked well. Overall it was a nice place. Only 2 negatives, one that when you walk from reception to your room you are often walking all the way through the restaurant which is weird. Also the hotel has a €10 tray charge for room service. I feel this is very expensive and penalises business travellers like myself who can often be travelling alone and rather than lose most of the night being waited upon can instead be productive working in their room and grabbing a quick feed via room service.

Great value for money
The Van der Valk hotel in Drachten appears to be on the older side and the room, furnishings and fittings are perhaps a little dated. However, it's still spotlessly clean and a very pleasant place to stay. The people are super-friendly and we had no complaints during our stay. Our room service dinner was excellent and good value for money.

Fine hotel with bowling next door
We had a fine stay, but we parked at the back of the hotel to be closer to the room (plenty of parking, by the way) thus coming in by a kind of odd entrance that went to the hotel and the very smokey bowling alley. It didn't give the best impression, although the hotel was very nice otherwise. The halls were very narrow and we had to walk pretty far to our room and go through several doors to get there (not ideal with an infant and several suitcases) but the room was clean and nice. Free wifi was great - no problem Skyping with it. Nice flat walk-in shower with large drain so no clogging. I thought it was a good solution, but a tub would have been nice to be able to give our baby a bath. We didn't try the breakfast or the restaurant, but the lounge looked really nice walking through.

Goed hotel
Vond het een beetje gedateerd, maar wel allemaal netjes. Was niet helemaal goed schoongemaakt, haren in het bad. Ook waren de handdoeken die we in het bad lagen niet gewisseld. Mbt ontbijt ben ik bij andere,vd Valk beter gewend.
