Very nice family style hotel, rooms comfortable, good bathroom. Beds are good, curtains keep the sun out in the morning,very good (rain) shower. Some nise from the otehr rooms because of the thin walls and traffic, but not very disturbing. Very good breakfast.

Family stile, 3*** comfort

Let me start by confessing that I grew up in Delden, which is the most picture-perfect village you can imagine.  I'll concentrate on the hotel, not the surroundings, but the hotel is very well located at the edge of town, facing the Langestraat and the old town hall, town meadow (Cramersweide) and towards the Twickel forest.  It's a 6 minute walk from the train station, and there are bus stops even nearer.

I stayed here one night for a quick visit with friends.  The hotel still has that old-time feel to it.  You have to check in at the bar, you are given one of those old keys for your room, and you find your own way upstairs.  My room (#6) was at the front, facing the street. This turned out to be a bit noisy when cars would suddenly transition to the brick street in the wee hours.  The room was much larger than a typical room in an old hotel: in fact, I was given a double while paying for a single.  The adjoining bathroom was quite new, with a shower.  The rest of the room was nothing special.  There was no wardrobe, only a freestanding hanger rack, and no other furniture besides the bed, nightstand and desk.  The bed was a bit saggy. The WiFi didn't work for me, but I was able to connect to the downstairs WiFi from my room, and it worked fine.

The rest of the hotel just oozes charm.  The bar is very old and authentic, and the dining room and terrace are well decorated.  The staff was all very young and attentive.  Too bad the breakfast didn't start until 8 AM on Sunday, since I needed to leave earlier than that.

I'm giving this four stars for the price, location, room size, and ambiance.  I would have given it 5 stars if the room had been outfitted a bit better.

Beautifully situated, lots of ambiance, good for the price

The pros:
Comfortable beds
Good shower
Mostly friendly and helpful staff
Good location - close to Kasteel Twickel and the railway station 
Adequate breakfast
Large room

The cons
On arrival we had to request extra pillows, soap for the bathroom, and new drinking glasses as those in the room were chipped and dirty. Although these requests were fulfilled, the member of staff present at the time was distinctly hostile. When I gave her the chipped dirty glasses there was no apology and she charged me for a bottle of water! However, all other staff that we met during our three day visit were very friendly and helpful, particularly those serving breakfast. 

The decor and furnishing of the room (we stayed in room 1) and bathroom is a little tired, and the tiled bathroom floor could do with a good clean.

Nevertheless, we enjoyed our stay and would certainly visit charming Delden again. 



Comfortable accommodation in a nice location

Very old and authentic house without a real reception. Rooms are bit out dated except for the bathroom (with floor heating). Beds ok but nothing more. In general - it could use a renovation uplift. Food ok but sometimes I missed a real taste - eg soup to creamy and tuna also missed some flavours. Breakfast basic but ok.

Family business

We booked two one-person rooms 3 months in advance, which were confirmed. When we arrived it turned out that the place had made a mistake by booking a two person room in stead of 2 one person rooms. We decided to go hiking anyway and travel home afterwards (a multiple hours trip). Upon return of our hiking trip, de Zwaan offered us a bed in a conference room. This bed turned out to a very uncomfortable stretcher and there was no way to make it dark in the room while they told us that black blinds were available. 

Moreover, the two person room was actually a one person room, so the mistake story was a lie as well. In reality we have been thrown out in favor of people who booked two nights.

I will never go back to this place. But the hiking area however is gorgeous, so find another establishment.
