    Great location, friendly staff, very good food albeit small menu. Quality of the dishes is outstanding, good value for money. So glad this place has reopened. Great for lunch and drinks too.

    The quality of food here was really good. Actually i was expecting another so-so restaurant, but was pleasantly surprised by the quality here. Small menu but all worth it. Would recommend if you're hiking the area.

    We had a wonderful and romantic stay as newlyweds in the bridal suite overlooking the garden and private outdoor spa! It was super relaxing and especially in autumn, the colors of the trees and woods surrounding this place are absolutely stunning. I highly recommend staying (and dining!) here if you have something to celebrate with your loved one(s). Especially if you're from the Randstad or a big city. You'll have the best sleep of your life!

    We had dinner at the restaurant with 8, in a separate room. It was splendid, in every way. The service, the 4-course chef's menu, the wines and non-alcoholic options, the pleasant waiters, the atmosphere - just wonderful. Since we gor married at the Kastanjehof in 2010, a lot has changed, but we really like this new vibe in still a great location.

    Beautiful location, but the swordfish was dry. Okay, who orders sea fish in a forest - I should know better

    Beautiful place. The surrounding is majestic. People are very kind. The rooms and the hallways floors, however, need some work and renovation.

  • 3/5 Vincent V. 5 years ago on Google
    I stayed a night here and had dinner on the first evening. First, the staff is friendly and helpfull. The waiters all knew details about the food and the wines, which is a good thing. We sat down in a large group and were offered the three course menu (of course the meat eaters were really sad about the 'beet' Wellingtong). Our courses took about three hours to be at our table in total (each dish took about one hour). This was a bit slow but one must add that the dishes were really tasty!!! Good food BUT way too little portions. If one sits down for a total of three hours with only three drink moments (at the start, prior to the main and after the deserts) with no bread on the table or anything... I can only say that I was hungry when I went to bed, which is sad after such good flavours. The fries that should have accompanied the main dinner came 10 minutes after this course was allready consumed... so that was a bit meh too. Apart from this, all dishes had almost nothing on it except from what you orederd. Duck was duck and fish was fish with three tiny bits of vegetables underneath it. No bread, long sitting time and tiny portions = hungry Vincent. The hotelroom was nice, a bit old but nice (some of the paint was falling off in the bathroom). The bed was a bit warm but I had a good night sleep nonetheless and it was really comfy. Breakfast! Perfectly cooked eggs with the yolk still running a bit (spot on). Not much choice for the breakfast but all was really tasty and the coffee was excellent! I think it was good that there was not that much to choose. Also less to throw away! Overall: three stars :)
