リールホテル ヘット クルースター(Leerhotel Het Klooster)

Wonderful hotel. It is supported by students at a local hospitality college but honestly we would not have noticed. The rooms were clean and large, and the building is historic; even the key was a real key. The breakfast was quite good. Everyone was so nice. Minor complaints: the towels could be better as could the toilet paper! The hotel is also not readily accessible by public transportation. However, if you have a car, it is terrific.

The Leerhotel Het Klooser is an unusual hotel. The building is ugly, the inside is uninspiring and dated. All of which is perhaps not a surprise if monks used to live there. Next door is a conventional college along with a trainee catering college who work in the hotel. These trainee students make up a good percentage of the staff especially in relation to the catering. This is applaudable although they are a little dilatory at times. The main staff are excellent and very welcoming. The bar area wasn’t particularly functioning and the location of the hotel wasn’t nearly many places of interest. Especially if you are walking. Tips: In walking distance, if you want a nice bar and snacks then go through a nearby forest to the Fletcher Hotel. If you don’t want to lose 3 hours of your life in a drab environment, avoid the 4 course meal option.

The place where it is situated countryside and woods making it very relaxing.The staff is very kind, and having students in hotel hosting training is fun. The architectural structure of the hotel which maintained some of the original spaces makes it unique.

- We were disappointed that there wasn't help to carry our luggage. We were a group of 4 women, some of us 70+. - The facilities were clean and neat. - The meals were tasty but: - service was lacking i.e. bringing out water, asking if we needed anything else, and keeping the breakfast buffet in order and filled. We needed to 'work hard' at getting someone's attention to have another coffee.

The hotel building and grounds are very impressive. We were glad of an enclosed parking garage. The students were well supervised and did fine work (the hotel is staffed by the students of an adjacent college and their teachers). The dinner was also very good.

I spent 2 nights at this amazing hotel for a business conference. The hotel is a hospitality training college. All the people working there are the students and their tutors. The food and amazing fancy treats prepared by young people training to be chefs and was lovely. The rooms beautifully comfortable and contained everything you needed. The conference facilities were very good. It was all unique as it was formally a monastery.

Not being a Dutch speaker, I hadn't appreciated that Leerhotel meant learning hotel and that the hotel was run in term time by the MBO HotelSchool students who are studying how to run all aspects of the Hotel. A fabulous concept and provided a great customer experience. In addition to the unique building itself being a converted Monastery. From the checkin, the greeting and explaining the hotel layout, the background to the hotel the service and dining was first class. The dinner was amazing value for money and far better than most hotels/restaurants. I thoroughly enjoyed it and will hopefully return for another visit to Amersfoort.

Goede service.

Het was prima.
