Van der Valk Avifauna Review

For young and old, young and old, male or female, fathers and mothers, grandfather and grandmother .......... There is something nice for everyone. With a little bit of rain it is a lot less crowded than with dry weather. We have been busy all day. Have been able to do just about anything. Already bought tickets by family. So only a parking coin purchased at the park.
I AM SO ABOUT THE EFTELING FOR ALL CLEARANCE!

Some stays I found a bit sad. A loft with bars. The stray Pelicans were great!

Hee nice hotel spacious and very clean room.
There friendly staff. Top

Old-fashioned hotel. May get an update in terms of design. Not much to do in this hotel.
The great thing is that you can enter avifauna even if the park is closed, the disadvantage is that many places like the monkeys are also closed.

Avifauna knows how to do it. Friendly service reasonable prices and always good decor, modern yet cozy.

nice room with very nice balcony, where the Ostriches and Cranes walk by your balcony, that is cozy.
good food and friendly staff.

Beautiful bird garden. During the demonstration, many birds were allowed to fly freely and returned automatically after the show. Care is taken with love for this park and much attention has been paid to the birds but also to fun things for the guests. You will not be knocked over with souvenir shops or restaurants. It is really a bird park focused on the birds (with 2 monkey species and 1 red panda)! Highly recommended !!!

Well-kept and spacious room. Also free access to the connected bird park, which was nice to kill a few hours!

Stayed in the hotel a few times now. Beds are really comfortable and it's great that you can go around the park for free as a guest. There is a casino on the side and a good bar. Restaurant is also very good.
Issues I have found on the last two trips are that the room service menu does not have much choice and quite exspensive. And on two stays I have been badly bitten. I am not sure if these are from Gnats or mosquitos. But there where a lot of bites on both occasions, even with the window closed.

Good room, excellent breakfast, and free visits to the bird park.

Nice and well-kept park. Not too big, but certainly not small either. Beautiful animal enclosures and beautiful animals. The playground also does very well with the children. Had a great day.

Great location, tasty drinks, always good service and a perfect place to meet or, in my case, have intake interviews!

Family room: no air conditioning. Bathroom smelled like urine and had mold on the wall. There is no bulkhead behind the bed with the pillows. So your pillow falls off at night. Restaurant and reception are not in the same building. Clumsy. All in all it's ok. Little past glory. Had consumption when reporting odor and mold.

Lovely place with so many species of birds. Perfect to visit with you children!

Excellent reception, food quality always remains good.

Delicious food with chirping birds in the background

It was in the right place at the right time.
The hotel is nice as is the restaurant. The room was noisy though mostly due to loud slamming doors

Nice place to walk through for seeing varieties of worldwide birds

Nice staff, cozy, clean rooms with good facilities. Quiet location, however, the elevator is noisy, so we changed the room.

The 5 stars are especially earned for the life and cooking dinner. Two people from our company have a resp. gluten intolerance and a nut allergy. What an excellent handling of this. The chef was nothing too much to guide them in what they were allowed to eat and regularly came up with something tasty that was allergen free. The service was also super friendly. Even gluten-free sandwiches for breakfast. Nice to hear it was taken into account so well. We have already spent the night at the hotel. It is not the nicest Van der Valk hotel, somewhat outdated, but that should not spoil the fun. Always very nice in combination with the bird park.

Super service! We were with a large group but everything went smoothly and streamlined. The food was delicious

Excellent breakfast. Customer friendliness is of paramount importance. Clean room. We were only unlucky with the weather, rain and the bird park was unfortunately closed due to Covid19. You can take a lovely walk there and enjoy nature.

Nice and beautiful you can enjoy yourself there for a mid week, food nice quite a lot bye

It is a pity that everything is closed due to the corona problems.
But the room and restaurant are fine.
Worth repeating.

Always fun, Van der Valk and Avifauna next door is just great!

Put volunteers without cause on the street because they go on vacation if it does not suits them

Friendly and the rooms were spacious and tidy, nice that lift cooking buffet

This place is addictive and you want to keep coming back

Great park for little money and you can have a good lunch there

Have eaten delicious in the restaurant van der valk will definitely come back.

One of the many Valk hotels, not the best in terms of the rooms, situated at the Avifauna bird park. Rooms are spacious but the decor is somewhat dated. The reception is not in the hotel building itself but across the street with the Avifauna cash register. Looks a bit strange and there is no control over who goes in and out of the hotel building. We have stayed here twice so far and in both cases we were not impressed by the cool business-like nature of the receptionists.
On 2 August 2019 we had dinner in the restaurant outside the bird park on the public road. The main courses, veal liver for my wife and the mussels for me were not very refined but good quality and more than adequate. The dishes were served with vegetables, baked potato slices and French fries of very poor quality. Furthermore, I must say that the condition of the men's room is no longer possible: really old junk who is far from fresh.

Good hotel and staff, interior needs a update. Rooms are good though.

Alphen aan den Rijn bird park. All you can eat dinner. We are at our beck and call and it was wonderful to be there.

As true vd Valk enthusiasts, you must have "done" the primal mother of the hotel chain.
And again not disappointed.
Nice hotel, good staff and a fantastic kitchen.
The Avifauna bird park is a pleasant addition to the concept.

After the visit to the Vogelpark we went for lunch at the Van der Valk restaurant. Service was well arranged and very guest free. Our daughter of 1 had her own food at sight which we were allowed to heat up without any problems. After lunch I asked if they had a remote place to breastfeed my daughter. Unfortunately they didn't have it. Without further questions they had arranged a room through the hotel so that we could breastfeed our daughter in peace.

Very nice hotel with friendly staff and a good restaurant and good breakfast with lots of choice and on Saturday a Live and cooking evening in the restaurant of bird park Avifauna.

Aged hotel without air conditioning, restaurant is good

Nicely kept cozy family park with birds and (half) monkeys

Nice reception, much possible and bird park was above expectations. Fun for all ages!

As always very nice to come in this park. Very large there is always a place to visit ...

No air conditioning in the room and no fridge. The carpet is quite tired and there are also some dirty sticky spots on it.

A nice park to walk around and enjoy a delicious brunch

Great, inexpensive accommodation, and expensive restaurant.

Been a nice day out. Beautiful animals that you don't always see in a zoo. However, I suspect that some animals have too small a cage, but then they fly loose in the bird show.

Rooms are big but not clean. Just like the bathroom. Breakfast is plentiful and tasty. Beds are worn out. You notice that the springs press through. OK for 1-2 nights, but not for holidays.

Beautiful and comfortable, a great opportunity for a different and exciting day.

Today 7-2-2020 delicious food.
Highly recommended to eat there once.

Nice park especially in the spring many nesting storks. Nice cozy little terraces with eateries. Maintaining the gardens could be better.

Very cozy only very warm in the room! No air conditioning available
