Heart of Nijmegen
This little hotel is right in the heart of Nijmegen, a short walk from the train station and close to restaurants and nightlife. Rooms are small, but perfectly adequate and well-kept. WiFi works well. Warning: There is no lift so you will be hauling your bags up and down the stairs.

good stay, great staff
I found the staff very helpful and polite...considering we were there to visit a sick relative in the hospital they were more than accommodating. They let us check in early, after a 8 hr flight and 2 hr train ride, and gave us directions to were we needed to go, and the best way to get there. The hotel was clean, the breakfast was good.

Very kind and helpful staffs and good service.
It was my first to visit Nijmegen so my colleague recommended this hotel. It has very cozy room and nice breakfast as well as good coffees. Place is very close to bar or cafe area and also many shops around. Walking distance from Nijmegen station, around 500m, 5min.

Great location. About 5 minutes from the train station and right downtown. Very convenient to catch the bus or to stroll through the city center. Hotel is good, not great, but the price is right and the breakfast was perfect.

Good location, average hotel
The hotel is in a very convenient location, close to the station and within walking distance of most tourist attractions. Bars, restaurants and shops are also close by. Although the room was clean, it was very small and felt pretty stuffy on a warm summer evening (no air conditioning). The staff were polite, but the front desk closes at 10.00 pm, so it is impossible to receive phone calls after that. On my first day, I was also woken up rather early by a wake-up call I had not requested. All in all, not a great experience.

Convenient and up to date in Nijmegen center
We had a pleasant weekend at Apollo hotel. We were staying in Nijmegen to visit family and friends. The location was good - close to the city center yet easily accessible by public transportation and cars. There's a car park on the other side of the square, a few minutes walk, there's a few parking spaces in front of the hotel but if you're arriving by car they'll probably be taken (we got lucky). The hotel is on the main shopping street just off the main square which means it's busy and noisy but it didn't really filter through into the room. Continental breakfast was excellent and very Dutch but I missed Krentenbollen. The hotel desk is not staffed after 11 but that was never a problem for us. Hotel room was cold when we arrived (mid January) but heated up quickly - could they have turned on the heat before we arrived? The hotel and the rooms are clean and modern. Internet is fine although my iPhone couldn't connect, my laptop had no problem.

Very decent hotel!
The room was very large which was nice. Since this is a downtown area you should expect some noise from outside. It was easy to walk to the hotel from the train station. The staff were very friendly and helpful. Fior me it was important to have access to the internet and there is free access. If I go to Nijmegen again I would stay in this hotel. You have to be aware that there's a staircase (I'm not sure if there is a lift).

Small, but nice
A fairly small and quite old hotel, but fairly up-to-date decor. Room was a good size, bathroom (shower only) was kind of cramped but functional. Good buffet breakfast, good location. Inclusive WiFi worked well.

Convenient location but a little tired
Ideal location in the city centre, a short walk from the railway station with many bars, restaurants and shops close by. The hotel in general is OK, but could use a little redecoration in places. The room itself was spacious with an excellent shower room, but the bed was composed of two singles pushed together and the mattress moved during the night so that it was hanging off the edge of the bed by morning! It was also very warm in the room (the weather outside was pleasant) and there was no air conditioning. Leaving the window open was not really an option because of the noise from the street outside. There was a good range of breads, meats, cheeses etc for breakfast, but the hotel did not serve other meals (not a major problem due to the proximity of many restaurants).

Perfect location, reasonable price
The hotel could hardly be more conveniently located; it's a short walk to the Central Station and right at the beginning of the main shopping street on the other side. Additional points for the wireless network that worked flawlessly and for free.

In the heart of Nijmegen
My room was very clean, comfortable and spacious; it included a sitting area (small table, two chairs), desk and chair, and attached (small but adequate) ensuite. I booked a double, not realising that the bed would be two singles pushed together (friends have told me this is not uncommon in NL). The complementary breakfast is served buffet style - in addition to cold cereal and juice there were warm boiled eggs, cold meats, several cheeses, fresh and stewed fruit, multiple types of bread, and spreads. The staff were at all times friendly and courteous, unobtrusive, and knew each of the guests by name. I stayed at the Apollo for a conference, which was convenientally held only a couple of minutes away. The hotel is a short walk from the railway station and close to buses; it is also opposite a large bicycle storage area.The Apollo is on a major shopping street, right on the central circle and close to several pubs and restaurants. This is fantastic for shopping, dining and drinking (there's a smaller supermarket about 5 minutes north up the Hamerstraat, and a larger one in a nearby shopping centre). I partiularly enjoyed dinner at Claudius next door - attentive staff, delicious food and a truly extravagant dessert! Unfortunately, though the hotel itself was quiet, the close proximity to these other facilities meant the street noise at night was quite loud. Had the windows been double-glazed my time at the Apollo would have been perfect; as it was, my experience was excellent and, should I return to Nijmegen I will also return to the Apollo.

Slitet hotell som inte alls motsvarar förväntningarna. Dålig säkerhet och lyhört. Till exempel så hade vi en uteliggare sittandes mot en av våra hotelldörrar inomhus en dag. Vem hade trott det?! Dessutom oerhört lyhört.
