Hotel Schmachtendorf

One night with a very professional frontdesk, a spacious and tidy bedroom and a very good breakfast.

I cannot fault this hotel. Everything was superb. We arrived from the overnight ferry to Hook of Holland. This place was perfectly positioned a couple of hours from the port for an overnight stay before exploring Germany. The car park was spotless. The reception staff were professional and very welcoming. All the hotel was very clean and airy. A lovely atmosphere. The room was very well appointed and, again, spotless. There was a lot of attention to detail: providing flannels, shower basket to hold our toiletries, movement sensor lights under the bedside cabinets, in the hallway, and in the bathroom perfectly dim so just enough light to get to the bathroom at night without having to fumble for switches, to avoid waking up the other occupant. Bedside light switches on the front of the bedside cabinet so you don’t have to be a contortionist to operate them. The breakfast was exceptional. Huge variety of hams, cheeses, breads, yogurts, and freshly cooked eggs which were perfectly cooked and a beautiful orange/yellow colour showing good quality. To top it off there was a tea station with numerous choices of leaf tea to self serve into teapots. They even supply specialist sugar to go with it! Eg unrefined sugar crystals. We loved it so much, we decided to stay another night and explore the delightful town. Not much there but lovely boulevards to walk down. We will come back here on our next trip to Europe.
