Reviews for Mansion Hotel Bos & Ven
Review 1:No bad experiences but some of the facilities were only available at the sister hotel a short distance away..
Review 2:The whole ambience plus the quality of the staff and the food. Definitely the best hotel we have stayed in for some time.
Review 3:Staff were nice but overall the hotel felt a bit 'snooty' for us. Has that old posh hotel feel. If that is what your looking for you will really like it. For us travelling for 3 weeks in Europe with a baby we felt a little out of place here but we still really enjoyed our stay. Didn't like the double bed which was the usual 2 singles pushed together but mattresses didn't meet. Very soft mattresses but were ok once you were lying flat. WiFi was pretty slow at times.
Review 4:Location is excellent, 15min stroll into center where there are lots of restaurants and bars etc. Beautiful building in beautiful surroundings. Very close to forest walks. Centrally located in Netherlands - would be good base to explore from. Breakfast was excellent. Fire in lobby is nice and bar area is nice.
Review 5:This stay was during a difficult time for us. We were in the area to attend a funeral, and during our time at this hotel, we were treated with such respect and kindness. The room was beautiful with delicious room service. The staff was lovely and catered to our every need. One woman in particular took special time to find toys and special food for our 9 month old son. I think this is our new place to stay in oisterwijk.
Review 6:The premises were set in a beauutiful location on a side road in Oisterwijk, easy to find. Besutiful pond out front and well manicured property. Staff were extremely friendly. Meals we had were cooked to perfection. We used this property and location to travel to other parts of the Netherlands which we found to be centrally located. It is a location we would recommend to others. R&K
Review 7:The toilet bowl was stucked in such a corner that if you bended a little to the front you would knock your head against the wall! The breakfast was fine but I have seen more variety.
Review 8:Location, cleanliness, general service.
Review 9:Buffet breakfast was very ordinary and, well, a bit below average.
Review 10:Quiet and lovely location, friendly and helpful staff. Comfortable room with large windows and lots of light. Very attractive restaurants. Dinner was quite good but not exceptional - restaurant staff excellent.
Review 11:- The slightly soft bed, which were separate beds rather than a double. - The lack of a water cooker, tea/coffee facilities in the room. - We had a room on the 2nd floor, which was ok, but nothing special. We did expect more opulence and a few more amenities in the room for this type of hotel; after all it is rated at 4 stars.
Review 12:- The architecture and atmosphere of the 'English' style building - The very friendly staff - The excellent service - Breakfast - The location, the grounds and setting: Very peaceful and quiet.
Review 13:The rooms are basic and quite dated. The door was not closing well. There were quite a few "silverfish" bugs. Most annoying for us though was the noise: our room was over the restaurant area, which meant that until late at night we heard the loud talks of people coming and going to the restaurant. Then at around 7AM the scraping of the chairs began. The breakfast was a huge disappointment. It's a separate charge of 15 EUR per person, but it's not worth it. There was very little variety, mostly from tins and jars, no fresh fruits or vegetables. The bacon was extremely salty and chewy - couldn't eat it. We wanted to stay outside to enjoy the good weather, but we had to carry ourselves the silverware, napkins, cups etc. to the table outside, the staff couldn't be bothered. The silverware was not even cleaned properly. All in all, we were so disappointed that we cancelled our second day and moved to another hotel.
Review 14:The location is very nice, and so is the exterior of the building and the restaurant area. The bathroom was recently renovated.

Review 32:loved the location and peacefulness
Review 33:One receptionist was a bit abrupt when I requesteda wine opener as I can only drink organic produce which was not available at the hotel
Review 34:Views/staff/breakfast/room nice/cleanliness
Review 35:Such a good hotel should offer better quality towels (they are thin and too small) and toiletry for bath and shower(it is poor!) The carpet and chairs are quite stained, which does not give a good impression...
Review 36:The place where the hotel is located is beautiful and quiet. The breakfast is excellent! Wifi is fast!
Review 37:Something went wrong with the evening meal service. We waited an hour before anything arrived and another hour between course. Moreover the menu was extremely rich and there were practically no light dishes.
Review 38:The reception staff were delightful. The setting is beautiful countryside and a well cared for garden.
Review 39:Although food was good quility, prices could be described sliughtly on high side. Final bill for 2 nights was 2/3 food and beverages and 1/3 room price.
Review 40:Friendly atmosphere. Friendly people. Comfortable room although a tin bit warm at night. Lovely quiet location.
Review 41:Restaurant very expensive and the set menus offered very limited choice and which did not seem popular with either residents or locals. TV limited for English speakers (with only one channel - BBC World). Power sockets tended to be switched off with the main lights making charging a phone or laptop overnight a challenge.
Review 42:Secluded setting (in mostly residential area) but only a short distance from Oisterwijk town centre. Could walk it if weather nice enough (10-15 mins). Town offers very good choice of restaurants (offsets the negative of the hotel restaurant price). Excellent breakfast which was included in rate as was free WiFi. Coverage borderline in room but we were at end of corridor. Really quiet - both from external noise and also fellow guests.
Review 43:The staff manages a unique combination of efficiency and very relaxed service which truly makes this hotel unique in its category, It is real value for money.
Review 44:Due to the high temperature, not having air conditioned in the room,despite opening the windows, made it really difficult to sleep.
Review 45:The local is spectacular, in a small village and easy to prepareprograms.
Review 46:It is not a place to stay with kids during the day, there are no activities nor food suitable for young children.
Review 47:The front desk staff was extremely nice and helpful.
Review 48:Only real negative was intermittent wireless, but eventually helpful staff got it working.
Review 49:Beautiful old fashioned hotel with great facilities in room, and fantastic view overlooking the lake. Big bath and double washbasin and big bedroom. Staff friendly and helpful Cycle friendly, had a purpose built secure garage to store our bikes safely.
Review 50:my wife stayed again august 16, but she felt not the same as our first stay. the room was noisy (above the restaurant) and the breakfast was less nice.
Review 51:first stay was fine, we were together and felt very confortable. great mansion, great location (august 7-11)
Review 52:Friendly staff. Good rooms very clean, light and bright. Attractive sorroundings. veranda to sit out on and have a drink with a lovely view of the lake. Excellent food. Good wine. Easy parking. Pretty village near by.
Review 53:No negative remarks at all.
Review 54:The location is very nice for people like us who made a short cycling trip in the 'Loonse duinen' around Loon op Zand and the 'Kampina' reserve at Oisterwijk. We spent the night between both trips in the Mansion Hotel Bos & Ven. The quiet place, the nice environment, the high quality of the hotel and its personnel will stay in our memory and we will for sure recommend it to our friends.
Review 55:If one would like to have access to main city, it is quite far a way.
Review 56:The hotel is located in a very nice and calm environment. The building has a classic architecture and was beautifully designed. The room was spacious and luminous. The staff were very kind and flexible. The breakfast was served in a place with a very nice view over a pound and the quality of the breakfast was fine.
