Pillows Luxury Boutique Hotel Aan de IJssel

I stayed here for two nights in April 2024, for work. The hotel is beautifully located right next to the river, with wonderful views across to the town. The bedroom was spacious, the bathroom was simple and perfectly clean. The underfloor heating was a nice touch. A very good quality mattress and really great pillows made it a comfortable stay. The staff in the hotel helped to make this one of the best hotel experiences I’ve ever had (and I’ve stayed in hundreds over the years). The first night we didn’t arrive until after midnight but the welcome was still warm and helpful. Breakfast was served in a different place from usual while their restaurant is being refurbished but it was all faultless. The next day we were unexpectedly back in the area so chose to stay again. There was a handwritten “welcome back” message in the room alongside the complimentary chocolates. On arrival they gave us a list of recommended local restaurants, checked to see if we could make a reservation at the time we needed, and booked the table for us. All in all, this place is a gem and a wonderful find. The team create a welcoming atmosphere and nothing is too much trouble. I’ll definitely be back, this time with my wife, for some rest and relaxation. I’m looking forward to it already!

We celebrated our wedding at Pillows Ijssel Hotel. The Location is amazing as it is located close by the Ijssel with a view on Deventer. The location itself is beautiful with its interior design and high ceilings. We can definitely recommend the location for these kind of celebrations. The staff is very friendly and professional. The dinner was perfect, it was one of the best food we had. The organization went very well and even if we had to change plans on a short notice, they showed flexibility and arranged everything so well. We are very happy that we have chosen Pillows Ijssel Hotel for our wedding. Note: We couldn't rate the category "sleep quality" as we haven't slept there. Therefore, this has been left open.

The view over the river the 'Ijssel' and the church of Deventer. We also felt very welcome, with a very relaxed checkin procedure in the living room. Also the 'a la cart' breakfast is great and prevents waste of food, good thought!

Very nice hotel with a very freindly service on a beautiful location close to the Ijssel. We feel like at home. Excellent New Years Eve Dinner. Delicious menu and a very good breakfast, served at the table.

This is a fantastic hotel. The staff are really freindly and helpful without being too "butler-like" For the check-in, they sit you in the lounge with a drink - what a service. Location next to the river with a very short ferry hop into town. We were there during the high water (river IJsel) and they had plans in place to make sure all went smoothly. Great place, great people.

Pillows are by far my favourite hotel chain and Pillows Deventer lived up to the expectation. Love it!

We had a terrific stay in this hotel. Well worth repeating. Lovely staff, great location, excellent service, excellent restaurant. The ferry across the river Ijssel was really enjoyable, as is the town of Deventer.

We had a verry nice Weekend at this lovely hotel. The 7 course Dinner was the absolute Highlight of our stay. The young people from the serviceteam were verry kind and friendly over the complete stay without any excaptions.

This is a luxury hotel in a luxury location. So, if you look for a budget, look elsewhere. If not, it is not super expensive but it is certainly super good: the staff, the food, the rooms, breakfast. Make sure you take the little ferry and stroll in romatic Deventer.
