Top Nijmegen Hotel Reviews

Mercure City Nijmegen Centre Hotel

8/10 Good

"business friendly"

Hotel De Bilderberg

10/10 Excellent

"Very cute hotel in a beautiful area with loads of trees and nature. The historical museum re the 1944 Market Garden history is very close by and was one of the best museums I have seen. There are great restaurants around as well. This hotel is just a quick 15-minute bus ride to Arnhem which is a cute smaller city with loads of great restaurants. The hotel has a restaurant which has a wonder buffet breakfast that won't disappoint. The restaurant also has service Monday - Saturday in the evening. We stayed on Sunday night so were not able to try out the restaurant's food in the evening. The hotel is wonderfully set up with loads of areas for a nice coffee or drink. The only thing is the hotel does not have air-conditioning. So, the room was a bit warm even with the fan. We didn't mind but for some people this may be difficult."

Golden Tulip Hotel Central

10/10 Excellent

"Exceptional breakfast and service"

City Hotel Haarhuis - World Hotels Crafted Collections

8/10 Good

"Breakfast not good not bad, dimner generally excellent"

Holiday Inn Express Arnhem by IHG

8/10 Good

"Comfortable beds in a spacious room. Great location in the centre and easy to park on site although it did cost 32 euros a day. Breakfast choices were good, hot and cold. Lots of shops and restaurants just round the corner. Abit of noise at night from outside as people went by our room but the location was worth it. Really friendly and helpful staff."

Van Der Valk Hotel 's-Hertogenbosch - Vught

10/10 Excellent

"We had a wonderful stay, even though it was only for one night. The hotel is absolutely beautiful, with a lovely atmosphere, and everything was perfect. Our room was clean, comfortable, and well-equipped. The staff were friendly and welcoming, making us feel at home from the moment we arrived. We really appreciated the peaceful surroundings and had a great night's sleep. We would definitely stay here again and highly recommend this hotel to anyone looking for a beautiful, comfortable, and enjoyable place to stay. Thank you for a great experience!"

What is a historic hotel like in Nijmegen?

A guest who chooses a historic hotel has the opportunity to stay in a place officially recognised with a national historic designation. Historic hotels throughout the world can take the form of castles, stately homes, palaces or even pubs, lodges, old police stations or skyscrapers — any building that's been identified as being of special interest. These types of hotels in Nijmegen typically preserve original characteristics like traditional architecture and period features in their communal spaces or guestrooms.

What is the difference between a historic hotel and a heritage hotel?

The two are similar. The term "historic hotel" is more common in the U.S., whereas "heritage hotel" is common in Asia and Europe. Historic hotels tend to emphasise the architecture and actual building. A heritage hotel draws meaning mainly from the cultural value that the place has and how it inspired the community.

Do historic hotels in Nijmegen have modern facilities?

Yes. Every effort is made to preserve treasured traditions and historic facades, but hotel interiors are fitted with modern conveniences and safety features. Guests should expect the popular amenities you'd get from a hotel such as Smart TVs, WiFi and updated bathroom facilities. In Nijmegen, booking a historic hotel doesn't mean you will stay in a place that's uncomfortable for guests or simply rundown.
