A real jewel of the blending of ultra-modern internals along with the quaintness ofis aged and refined touches. The breakfasts are massive and yet, seem to be healthy and fresh. The coffee is great and endless, the jams are fresh and fruity, the fruit is just-chopped and served attractively, there is always a hot and fresh hard-boiled egg, and a dizzying assortment of breads, cheeses, meats, etc., etc. BUT... the real benefit is the charming lady of the house and the airy waiting areas. If there is a downside, it is the oddly Dutch custom of going upstairs to go downstairs..however, that may have more to do with the additions made over time. As the frontage must comply with the heritage restrictions, the entrance is what one might expect. On days when one does not have to compete with the constant rain, there is pleasant and adequate outside relaxation areas. Don't miss it...there are plentiful views of the ubiquitous tall ships that can no longer navigate past the bridge to Ijssel over the river..good restaurants are plentiful and good value...also with great views. Good curbside parking adds to the ease and comfort of this place and its location.
