De Dames Van De Jonge Hotel Restaurant Giethoorn

We had a great stay here - having booked quite late Roelie and the team were very accommodating - our stay included a 3-course meal which was great (and very generous portions!) We had hoped to hire a boat but the weather wasn't great: Roelie very kindly contacted a local boat operator and we were able to enjoy the sights of Giethoorn in a covered boat - she even gave us a lift to the pick-up point! Would highly recommend for a weekend away!

Really enjoyed our stay at this family run hotel. Friendly, accommodating staff, good food, great location for all activities in the area.

The worst experience of my life! Rude! Not customer friendly ! Lack of professionalism! We have made and payed a booking three months before our arrival (via booking.com) This was supposed to be our honeymoon trip! Amsterdam and giethoorn. While we were in Amsterdam the day before our booking, the owner of the hotel called me and told me that they did a mistake and they don't have our room available for all the days we have booked ... but only for the first one. They probably doublebooked or something the same room I still don't know ... But they told us that they will see what they can do ... same day at midnight they send me an email and tell me that they don't have a room for us except the first day. Of course I saw it in the next morning at 8:30 and immediately contacted booking.com ... they called the hotel and while I was on hold, spoke with them and told them that it was ok now for us to stay there ... So we went there just to find out that they wanted us to stay for one night there and the other night to some other place. The worst part was that they tried to put the blame on us, they didn't accept their mistake while we were there ... it was totally fine to them to stay on some other place instead.... p.s. still don't know where! They never told us ... they just wanted us to check in first so they would get that day! At the time the manager a.k.a. chef a.k.a. booking handler was busy in the kitchen and couldn't come to speak to us ... ! Of course we called booking.com at that time and tried to figure out if was part of the deal with them ... Of course it wasn't... Booking.com wanted to speak with them so finally we handed the phone to the owner of the place and after the call with the most hideous way in front of all the people there, told us that we are not welcome anymore to that hotel anymore! Why the heck we didn't want to stay to somewhere else the next day they wondered....? (Owners words to booking.com assistant on the phone.... ) Off course booking.com helped us with all that s***t and we stayed to another hotel. - 5 by us!

The hotel is very beautiful, its views are very impressive, the outdoor seating is very beautiful, the desserts are wonderful. The apple pie is so delicious, the coffee is okay

We were there for lunch. Very good food. Perfect place to rwlax during bike ride.
