Hotel Papendal is a no frills contemporary yet comfortable basic stay hotel used for the Dutch Olympics team. Amazing value, but you get what you expect. Food in the bar wasn't great, but plenty of places nearby to visit instead. Would recommend for a stay when visiting the Airborne Museum ‘Hartenstein’ in Oosterbeek.

Great Hotel in lovely grounds
We had a great stay at this Hotel. The room was spacious, well thought-out, and we had a lovely view over the extensive grounds. This Hotel loves sports, lots of facilities, especially for bicyclists. The whole building is full of light and space. Would definitely recommend. The staff were great - their English is wonderful!

1 night stay with a baby. There was no kettle but we were able to get it at the reception. The room was quite small and there were hairs on the floor and a few on the bed. The breakfast was great.

Confort des chambres très bien, mais on entend les gens qui rentrent et sortent, les enfants qui courent dans le couloir. Lits confortables.
Il manque des prises de courant et la
Belle salle de bain avec Baignoire. La lampe juste au dessus du porte bagages est gênante.
Petits déjeuners extraordinaires : Choix, fraîcheur, variété.
