Nicely renovated, almost historic, hotel building on the Utrechtseweg in Amersfoort where, despite the ongoing modernization, it still exudes the atmosphere of earlier times.
We experienced our double room at the front of the building with balcony and view of the water tower (1912) as small and compact with a fresh modern look. Almost everything was there for what you can expect from a hotel room, it was clean and fresh but also had some disadvantages. The room was fairly noisy not only because of the passing car traffic on the Utrechtseweg, but also because of the sounds from the floor below right below our room where a drink after a course could be heard as being very cozy .. We should have found it and before 10.00 No more noise nuisance during the evening.
The biggest "annoyance" was the "ieniemienie" pedal bin, the only waste depot point in the room that invariably fell over when you pressed the ieniemienie pedal. TIP: purchase larger and more robust pedal bins and / or waste bins.
The simple shower cubicle was and remained simple, the washbasin unit gave a sort of "kitchen block feeling". I especially missed a spotlight or modest lighting to make up at the huge wall mirror, so the almost "stadium lighting" had to be turned on, so my hubby was immediately "lit up". The bed was small, a bit too soft but otherwise fine and the low chaise longue bench looks nice but it has almost given us both a double hernia when we get up
Furthermore, the breakfast made up for almost all the "other suffering" again: nice breakfast room with a beautifully presented breakfast buffet where nothing was missing.
In short, we have all had a great stay at the Best Western Plus Hotel Amersfoort so: "who cares about a ieniemienie pedal bucket"?
