Reviews for Hotel Astel
Review 1:Friendliness and helpful staff made you welcome. Nothing was too much bother. For time of year they offered information on restaurants even though they have a braserie.
Review 2:We received a very warm welcome by the owners who were extremely helpful and accommodating. The buffet breakfast was varied, fresh and offered some delicious breads and croissants. We travelled with two young children so booked the family suite. It suited our purposes perfectly as kids and parents each had a bedroom and we shared a very spacious bathroom. We shall be returning!
Review 3:The hotel is close to the sea but you don't see the sea. The price of the room was a bit too much.
Review 4:The staff is always smiling and available. Very very nice people. Breakfast was very good.
Review 5:Pay Attention that you will be billed for the whole stay at the beginning of your stay, not at the end!!!

Review 35:Very friendly receptionist who heard we spoke in English and immediately switched to English as well. We only went for breakfast at 9.50 (breakfast is untill 10) but there was still plenty of food available. We stayed till 10.45 eating breakfast and no-one kicked us out. We could just take our time. The rooms were big and bathroom as well.
Review 36:- nothing
Review 37:- very friendly an competent staff - very beautiful hotel - very clean services an rooms - very good breakfast - very beautiful presented
Review 38:We have stayed at the beach hotel in De Haan previously and I guess we were spoilt .
Review 39:Family run hotel. The son greeted us in reception. Highly knowledgeable and very helpful. The hotel has been wonderfully renovated and very high quality.
Review 40:large quantity of chipped crockery being used at breakfast. sound proffing in rooms not great is you have noisy neighbours
Review 41:very comfortable and clean, Staff very helpful and friendly
Review 42:The rooms had no room number! View from out of my room very sad and enclosed. Elevator very small. This is more a pub with rooms and not a real hotel. Much too expensive for what you get.
Review 43:Hotel was clean and fine but way over priced for what we got. Reasonable double room rate with breakfast would be 100 euros per night max. Double beds were actually two singles side by side.
Review 44:Relaxed atmosphere Good breakfast Casual staff Nice location in the summer
Review 45:nothing really.
Review 46:the attitude of the Whole staff. The assistance they all had offered,especially arranging an early breakfast for us on our day of travel.
Review 47:Lack of seating/meeting area and lack of Dedicated car park.
Review 48:Clean,practical rooms. Excellent breakfast. Very hospitable family run hotel well located for all facilities in De Haan. Wonderful beds!!
Review 49:Sometimes the room design makes things awkward (e.g. the rooms are a bit too dark).
Review 50:Very very friendly and helpful staff. Excellent service. Good food at reasonable price. Very clean hotel, pretty design, very new and modern. Close to the beach (3 minutes). Close to downtown De Haan (10 minutes). Plenty parking places around the hotel. The family room offers plenty of space for 4 people. Mindful of families (e.g. baby carriage fits in lift, changing table available in the restaurant, possibility to rent a baby bed).
Review 51:Everything was great.Only request would be more attention to 'eco-friendly' points (e.g. avoid individual packaging of soaps in bathrooms, butter, etc. at breakfast), no indication of energy source, etc..
Review 52:All round a great experience. Hotel is newly renovated (summer 2012) andfamily run. Service is impeccable, rooms minimalist and comfortable,breakfast is delicious and overall 'ambiance' a delight.We had a family room, with two completely separate bedrooms. My twins teenage daughters loved the place ! I really felt like the stay was worth every euro spent...!
Review 53:Only a few minor things (may be due to my own negligence too): * The reading lamp by the bed looked smart but was not very useful. * A fresh daily local/regional newspaper in the reception would be great. * Parking: not a big problem in late September, but perhaps in the peak holiday period?
Review 54:* The atmosphere and the service: friendly and relaxed. * The beds: very comfortable (perhaps a bit on the firm side, which I like). * The heating: in good working order when needed. * The location: two minutes from the beach. * The food (both breakfast and supper): tasty, and portions big enough to make you ready for a day outdoors (or to restore your balance at the end of the day)
Review 55:From the moment we arrived (earlier than the allocated Booking-In time)we were welcomed by a young man who took care of our baggage and storedthem in a "safe room" until we returned later that day to complete ourbooking. It soon became apparent that this was a family run business aseverybody went that extra mile.The Hotel is luxurious, the rooms (although minimalist) are spacious and tastefully decorated, the beds were obviously of high quality as was the linen and the room fittings and furnishings (including a flat panel TV). The bathroom was something else, it was spacious, it was tiled from floor to ceiling with quality tiles, all fittings and the bath/shower unit were again of high quality. Patrons also enjoy the benefit of free Wi-Fi connectivity, and there is a lift which covers all floors, including the basement toilet facilities which were also spotless. There appears to be two restaurants, one is a spacious restaurant which is situated at the front of the hotel, the other being just off the reception area. The sumptuous continental breakfast buffet is laid out in the front restaurant, although the buffet is by nature self-service, a family member was on hand to bring our preferred beverage to our table (in our case the proprietor's wife, although the daughter was also on hand). Nothing was too much trouble for this charming family, and my partner and myself sincerely wish them a prosperous future, and we will almost certainly be visiting them again later in the year. You often read the old adage that the Hotel is only 100yds from the sea, well in this case it's certainly true!! We highly recommend this hotel and do not think you will be disappointed.
Review 56:What's not to like?!? Location, location, location...brand new interior mixed with original exterior, amazingly attentive staff...the list goes on. We will most certainly return! A++++
Review 57:The odd picture on the walls would have been a nice touch, but otherwise great
Review 58:The family rooms were excellent. Very clean and good bath/ shower. The bunk beds in a separate room was ideal for a family. The main bedroom was a little small and the whole place had a very modern masculine design, but very comfortable beds and new bathrooms. Breakfasts were excellent.
