Reviews for Best Western Plus Turnhout City Hotel
Review 1:The fact that the rooms needed cleaning as we arrived at 4pm. There were only two staff on duty. The breakfast was cold. The door lock didn't work.
Review 2:Location
Review 3:All great for us, if you're a light sleeper or hate trains, ask for room in front of hotel. Rooms at back overlook rail line.
Review 4:Friendly helpful staff, great location near train station and easy walk to centre of town. Comfortable well equipped rooms, with complimentary wine.
Review 5:The bathroom light is bad, I don't like to take a shower in completely dark shower room. Breakfast is okay, but fried eggs and bacon were cold.
Review 6:Clean room, friendly staff
Review 7:Beds kept rolling away. We had a room at the back. Outside there was a bus lane and a train station. The noise was minimal but the location wasn't ideal.
Review 8:Nice location with parking space in the city center. All drinks (water and wine) and snacks were free in the room.
Review 9:The breakfast was good quality but looked unorganized... it was a bit of an adventure to find everything you would like for breakfast. And some sort of small bin or extra plate on the table for the rubbish would have been good.
Review 10:Nice clean rooms, friendly staff... although directly at the station not too loud and busy
Review 11:1 room didn't have a working hairdryer and the other didn't have a working aircon but we didn't mention it until checking out so they didn't get the chance to put it right unfortunately.
Review 12:friendly staff, lovely extra touches like complimentary tea, coffee, wine and chocolates.
Review 13:Nothing really
Review 14:Receptionist who seemed to do everything was great, parked the bike right outside the front of the hotel door for free, if you arrived by car you'd have a problem. Centre of town a five min walk away, did the job.
Review 15:The room was hot with no visible means to switch on the air conditioning. The hotel was next to the station and noisy at times. There was no one in reception on the day we left and we did not have time to wait longer than 10 minutes.
Review 16:Good shower and lots of choices at breakfast but mostly pre-packed.
Review 17:the room my grandparents stayed in was not very big BUT it was beautiful full of nice treatments and clean. The lady at the reception was very friendly and helpful. They loved it and will come again
Review 18:A little noisey at night, but it was Saturday and we were just passing through on business
Review 19:As a converted old railway station the hotel had real charm, nice not to stay in a plain box
Review 20:Our room was close to reception and we heard everybody coming in and out the whole night, lots of noise. There wasn't any food left when we arrived for breakfast, it was refilled, but very slow, we waited very long.
Review 21:The staff was very friendly.
Review 22:Didn't like the pillows, found them uncomfortable. Breakfast was a bit chaotic, I think they were understaffed. All available tables were not cleared/cleaned, food and juices were pretty much empty. Everything got filled in the end, but it took a long time. Also a tip, close the kitchen door when washing dishes.
Review 23:Free wifi, room was very nice, friendly staff
Review 24:I find many hotel beds too hot, even with the window open for ventilation. This then let in traffic noise, but that was not too bad at night.
Review 25:Good value and quality. Wide choice of breakfast items. Coffee machines took a little learning at first.
Review 26:We liked the quirky feel of the hotel. For once their was a full length mirror and a plug so you could do your hair with straighteners whilst looking in mirror. Right next to station which was great and trains didn't wake us either.
Review 27:Hotel has no car park, but there is paid parking right outside.
Review 28:Rooms were quite large and clean. No despite despite proximity of railway station. Breakfast very comprehensive. Staff very friendly and helpful, almost a family atmosphere. Will definitely stay here again.
Review 29:Breakfast: not very good quality. Boiled eggs, scrambled eggs and bacon were cold.
Review 30:Free basket of wine and chocolate. Tea-making facilities. Next to the railway station.
Review 31:beds not very comfortable two single beds were pushed together to make a double bed but both beds had single bedding on , the breakfast was not very inviting ,everything was cold and the milk for cerial was not chilled, the rooms not very well sound proof , the shower not very powerfull and water came out slow
Review 32:located next to train station , nice outdoor seating area ,
Review 33:Great location Nice room - well equipped, lovely having a balcony area. Generous welcome basket/in room facilities and breakfast very good. Staff polite and helpful.
Review 34:Very noisy location. Room very stuffy, no air-con Corridor to rooms was too dark. Chest freezer in dinning room blocking french windows onto terrace. No free parking at front of hotel to un-load luggage when booking in.
Review 35:Convenient location Comfortable beds Helpful staff Good breakfast Clean.
Review 36:Trains and busses right in front of the window, also people waling right by your window, the curtains had to be on the whole time
Review 37:Helpful staff, excellent breakfast, compliment bottles of wine and drinks in the room; very convinient if you come to the city by train - couldn't be a better location, also close to where I needed and wanted to go - Thomas More campus, Grotte Markt and the shopping street, the Beguinnage, museums
Review 38:It was ok- a bit pricey... but that how rooms are in Europe.
Review 39:The staff was great- very polite and helpful. The hotel is ok- rooms are nice, clean. Not much for parking. Restruants and bars within a short walk.
Review 40:parking is difficult
Review 41:free wine, tea coffee + soda inside for free. sunlight from roof
Review 42:Near to a bar so at night is noisy iut side . No ac and if you open the window at night is noisy
Review 43:The atmospher is good .
Review 44:Terrace doors not working, and toaster at breakfast time no good,

Review 46:Needed fan on all night as so hot
Review 47:Convenient. Helpful staff
Review 48:None whatsoever
Review 49:Fantasic room with balcony. Very clean and comfortable. The free bottles of wine were a nice bonus
Review 50:The friendliness of the staff. They truly went out of the way to help in any way. Great location!
Review 51:Senseo
Review 52:the price the breakfast
Review 53:The staff was so friendly!!! It makes your day!
Review 54:Some rooms too hot, air conditioning didn't work, breakfast room very hot.
Review 55:Staff helpfulness, good breakfast buffet.
Review 56:staff is really friendly and bed really comfortable... leffe 2.5€? get outta here!
Review 57:Pillow was too big and too firm. Bed a bit too firm but understand that personal taste varies.
Review 58:Pleasant and helpful staff. Gift package on arrival. Location of our room with a street balcony.
Review 59:If you want to sleep early, bring a 'white noise' app on your phone. This hotel is 2 meters away from a rail/bus lane. When a bus goes by outside you can touch it. This ends quite early, but there is an early train in the morning!
Review 60:I reserved a twin deluxe..(because of air conditioning). In this room was .. free, water, wine, chocolate... Very pleasent room. I had a good walk in town and then a pleasent evening. The Japanese Resto next door has good food (also some standard fare) although it was very slow to eat there. The thing that impressed me most; I bought a soft drink from the vending machine (front desk has only wine and beer!) and sat on the back terrace. The front desk attendant came all the way back to ask if I would like ice, and brought a bowl full of ice from the kitchen. Choice for breakfast was very good.
Review 61:No room service, no restaurant (they do have a breakfast buffet and they will order take out for you), only showers, not baths. If you are on the railway tracks side of the hotel, very noisy (quiet on road side as long as you close the windows)
Review 62:immaculately clean with new bathrooms: friendly staff: free water, tea, coffee and wine in the room. Very central in Turnhout- if you have to be iin the town on business, it is absolutely fine
Review 63:the parking outside the hotel was odd in the fact that you had to pay for it between 9 am to 6 pm (Mon - Sat). Maybe the hotel could offer free parking for people staying at the hotel? There was an alternative parking area close by, but just a thought/suggestion.
Review 64:Staff polite and helpful
Review 65:Breakfast wasnt Ideal. Main issue was receptionist was also the cleanerwhich meant there were periods when she wasnt at the front desk
Review 66:I found my stay enjoyable, free bottles of wine were appreciated, Freewifi was great and most importantly having adapters for my uk powersockets was a life saver. Toilet in the reception was also very nice
Review 67:I booked a double but got twin singles and could not change because my wife wanted a smokers room. Noise was a bit of a problem and your site did not state that the location was virtually part of the Railway station with a major bus stop right out the front.
Review 68:The room was a good size and the price included breakfastthat was a good value, unfortunately the hot breakfast was cold.
Review 69:Did not know there was a gym until last day. Staff should go thru aquick hotel tour/guide during guest check in.
Review 70:Proximity. Nice and friendly staff, willing to help.
Review 71:Parking was not straightforward, very little paid parking outside the hotel (and you need coins). There was a multistorey car park (credit card payment possible), about 5-10 minutes walk, but it would have been helpful to have a space close to the hotel to drop off bags etc first.
Review 72:Convenient locations close to the station, not noisy, clean comfortable rooms
Review 73:Strange smell of smoke even in non-smoking rooms (maybe because of the wall-to-wall carpet). Only one reading lamp in a double room seems strange. Breakfast; varied choice, but very neglected; all things supposed to be warm were cold (eggs, pancakes, scrambled eggs). Also, no staff to clean tables, so used plates etc on several tables gave a sloppy impression.
Review 74:Very nice rooms and furniture. Good location, parking close. Close to the centre, easy to find. Beautiful breakfast room.
Review 75:For any reason wireless was not connecting that time. Was a bit annoying but not the worse thing. Still a very good point of view of the hotel
Review 76:Good staff and very available
