 Disappointingly dull breakfasts by Dutch standards Also layout of breakfast rooms very awkward too much walking back and forth between table and buffet Why not have the buffet by the middle windows at the front Breakfast staff seemed to be hurrying us and started clearing the buffet earlier than stated in the hotel literature 
 Room 47 and the view on the tranquil tree lined canal from the window lots of birdsong in May The reading rooms downstairs the library and bar The warm welcome on arrival all the front desk staff were exceptional Good sized and well appointed bathroom for two Overall a superbly well run quiet and relaxing hotel created from 17th century houses and only five minutes from the buzz and the trams
