Hotels in de buurt van ’t Nije Hemelrijk, Gasselte

We had a very enjoyable weekend at this hotel. Yes it’s very outdated and could do with a good clean-up but the positives far outweigh the negatives. Location is beautiful .... nice and quiet with great walking routes right at the back of the hotel. Parking was fairly tight but we discovered an overspill carpark at the back where the shed is and where you can lock up your bikes for the night. The rooms themselves are typical Fletcher style ..... blue carpet with brown furniture but nice and spacious. Very comfy clean beds with coffee and tea making facilities. Nice small balcony to open the door and let some air in. Took a while to find a hairdryer and still wonder why they have it hanging and wired up under the television. No fridge in the room. The bath was very welcoming when you see how small the swimming pool is ..... however I did wonder how an elderly person could climb up into the bath to take a shower seeing there were no slip mats on the surface ..... lethal for an older person or somebody with a disability. Breakfast area very spacious with plenty of available tables and as for the breakfast itself, it was excellent. Anything you wanted was laid out and the cook behind the counter was constantly making up fresh eggs and bacon. Reception staff were constantly busy but very friendly and helpful. Overall really enjoyed it.

We were here before, then the hotel was quite dated, now we had a renovated room that was fine, beds were good, the sanitary was good, as well as breakfast. However, some (building) comments: Firstly, the hang of the toilet roll. If you sit on the toilet, you can because it is almost undecent to you. The round table is very fun, but is not very functional because there is no place to set the laptop on. And ... to connect it, you need to pull the plug out of the squeeter lamb. I would like to mention these things because they can be taken into account in the rooms that need to be renovated, where there is a lot of pressure, because we had to move between the building workers and from our room. And why still firm floor covering (now clean, soon dirty again).

Elp is a place that is very well located for Drenthe exploration. The Kokkoshof is a great, not too expensive opportunity to serve as a basis for it. Bicycles and engines can be stopped from the road. The room was clean and large enough. The furniture is lightly dated and the floor cover can just be included. But a good bed and choice of kitchens (hard or soft). Good coffee (and tea) in the room. Bad room is simple with shower in the bathroom. Lighting is good everywhere. The room was very quiet and sound-sleeved so the kitchen was very well sleeped. Unfortunately, the cook was sick that night, but we were transferred to a great alternative. Very good price/quality ratio, therefore, a recommender for if you want to explore Drenthe for a few days. Certainly because of the owner who is one and all kindness and attention. Compliment.

Nice, clean rooms, good parking infront of the hotel. Quite easy to find and in a good location. Comes with a resturant for supper and breakfast. (Not included in the price) Great service and kind staff. Would recommend if coming to Emmen. We have been there two times and they let us change location of the rooms so we were not next to the main road. The breakfast is nice and has alot of diffrent options. We did not try the resturant for supper. I would say it was quite nice. 8/10.

The hotel room (2nd floor) was good. New hotel and the rooms were tastefully furnished. The halls were also beautifully yellow colours. The bathroom was large with a beautiful indoor shower, but was very nice clothes. The room was very cool, the bathroom was very chill. The beds were really good, lovely sleeping. But the rooms are quite aware. The location is, of course, perfect! In the centre, in front of the entrance of the zoo. The hotel has a large (unexpensive) parking garage. We have not taken breakfast, € 16.50 € per person we really find too expensive for the amount we eat.
