“An outstanding structure with some flaws”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed November 5, 2012

We lodged in Villa Augustus with two kids for two nights (Family rooms).
The biggest rooms are located in a wooden cottage in the garden, they are spacious and sport a castle bunk (kids were loving it).
The Hotel has a dependance where they built a large restaurant, a shop where bio products are sold and a cafe. Stylish and nice to the eye.
However, we noticed that the room wasn't totally clean, you won't find hairs under your sheets, especially if they are not yours.
The Restaurant is neither bad nor great, service is above average however.
Personnel in the hotel and in the restaurant was extremely kind, to be fair, we found that everybody in Dordrecht is kind.
Besides the flaws, we recommend the hotel, it's a nice staying.

“Really great experience”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed October 27, 2012

Everything about this hotel is excellent - from the reception to the rooms (garden room overlooking the formal garden) to the restaurant to the setting in beautiful gardens. Every member of staff we encountered were professional and friendly and nothing was too much trouble. The food in the restaurant was first class - we experienced breakfasts and dinner on 2 nights. Would thoroughly recommend the whole experience at this fabulous place.

“A first class lifestyle rather than Hotel”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed September 27, 2012

Stayed here combining a holiday with a business trip and really enjoyed it. Had a room with patio doors opening onto the garden patio with own seating and table right outside. A walk through the kitchen garden to the restaurant for excellent breakfast and evening meal. Had lunch one day too and that was equally good. Not cheap but you got the best of everything - although very quirky and homely.
Very handy for waterbus to get around - it is a 10mins brisk walk to get there along the canal bank. Well worth using the waterbus to get around in this area, and don't be surprised to see the massive Noah's Ark nearby!?
Would go out of our way to stay again.

“Best hotel experience....ever. Worth a detour to Dordrecht!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed September 17, 2012

This hotel is so wonderful. It was the first time my husband and I had been back to Holland since 1999 and it was a special time for us. The staff made us feel so welcome...we arrived very late with small children and we were fed in the restaurant beautiful fresh food. The garden is absolutely amazing, one of the gardeners showed my son the vegetables which was a delight. We stayed in the garden room - very clean, beautiful bathroom and the best mattress of any hotel I have stayed in (and there have been many). Best of all was to wake up and to look across the bridge to a life size Noah's Ark which we visited and the children and we loved the amazing experience. Cannot recommmend highly enough.

Room Tip: Try a garden room that backs onto your own lawn. Beautiful.

“Very nice experience, and a few remarks”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed September 14, 2012 via mobile

The Villa really is 'the other hotel'. The resemblance with the atmosphere in Hotel New York in Rotterdam is striking. Rooms vary greatly, depending in which part of the hotel you are. Avoid staying in the rooms close to the reception if you are a light sleeper. Super shower in the room, which causes some flooding of the bathroom. Dirty spots on the floor. Great and very helpfull staff. Diner in a very popular (full) and huge restaurant. Breakfast not very extensive, but absolutely great quality. Can recommend this place to everybody
