Hotel de Wereld

On our journey from Germany to Amsterdam, we made a brief stopover for a night at this property in Wageningen, approximately an hour’s drive from Schiphol Airport. While the free parking behind the hotel was a welcome amenity, it proved somewhat difficult to locate and access. The check-in experience, however, was nothing short of exceptional. Simon, the receptionist, handled our arrival with a level of politeness, friendliness, and personal touch rarely encountered these days. He engaged us in a conversation about the hotel and our room. This refreshing approach set a positive tone for our stay. Room 104 was impressive. It was spacious and well-appointed with a comfortable sofa and a large, firm king bed adorned with clean, comfortable sheets. The bathroom was equally impressive. Clean, spacious, and modern, the individual split air conditioning unit worked efficiently, enhancing our comfort. The room’s quality evoked the feeling of staying in a top-notch American hotel. Although we did not explore much of the hotel’s amenities, such as the bar, lounge, or restaurant, the location made up for it. The hotel was close to multiple grocery stores, restaurants, and a bus stop. Admittedly, the city did not impress with its cleanliness or charm, but the dreary, rainy weather might have contributed to this impression. Overall, I am pleased with my choice. We stayed on Monday, May 27, 2004, in room 104 on the first floor. The cost was approximately 163 euros, all-inclusive. The experience was well worth it, and I would consider returning if my travels bring me this way again.

Great boutique hotel. Each room has a theme and a story. It is in the middle of a charming city. The owner, Hans, works on the property. Excellent service. The LeV restaurant on property is excellent gourmet dining. The hotel is in the middle of a walking around charming town of outdoor cafes and interesting shops. An awesome weekend experience. And the bed is super comfortable.

Fantastic hotel; super friendly staff; facsinating history! Very child staff! I stayed in this hotel following a long hike with my 8-yr old daughter. We got a beautiful amazing room named after one of the heroes of freedom

The room was perfect, the bed and pillows so soft and warm. The bathroom huge and modern. Clean and comfortable, we will come back!!! A historical place, a freedom symbol. Easy to go everywhere by foot and by car.Close to the city centre but quiet and silent to relax , read or sleep.

Beautiful hotel and room. De restaurant is great, we had a very nice diner and breakfast. The history of the hotel is so interesting. Though we had a problem with the sink in our room which was leaking and they could not manage to repair it during our stay. We do not like all the sms’s you get. Natural contact between the reception and us as guest is preferable.

Hotel De Wereld is an excellent hotel with comfortable rooms, excellent service and good food. But what makes it unique is that it has embraced its historical significance (the Germans surrendered the Netherlands here in May 1945) with themed rooms dedicated to a freedom fighter. We stayed in the ML King Jr room with pictures of ML King, his family, and the March on Washington. You can even listen to his famous “I have a dream” speech while sitting on the toilet! This made our stay more than just a comfortable one, but a profound one as we reflected on the meaning of freedom then and now, here and there.

My daughter and I loved the history & atmosphere of the hotel; the really warm hospitality; excellent breakfast; and our amazing Mahatma Gandhi room made it a really memorable experience! It’s very conveniently located, too.

We are in Wageningen three times a year and always stay at the Hotel de Wereld. It is a small hotel and the service is really, really top notch. There are two nice restaurants as part of the operation, and a wondcerful outside patio area with one fo them. Special requests are not a problem. The rooms are light, and with high ceilings, and each has its own unique character.. It is well heated in the winter and the rooms have AC for hotter days at other times of the year. Each room has a mini-fridge which is a must in our book. The location is great too--convenient to the many shops and restaurants in this delightful town--and also an easy walk to amazing arboreuteums (Belmonte and at Het Depot). There is a great natural food store--Odin--a 30 second walk from the hotel entrance. In sum, a ddlightful place to stay.

Lovely characteristic hotel with a helpful, friendly team. My room was delightfully unique - dedicated to Pippi Longstocking, with fabulous quirky details. Aside from that it was spacious and we'll appointed
