Not only was our room super clean and comfortable, but the staff truly is the shining star. If I could give them 10 stars, I would. They go above and beyond to make your stay comfortable and will assist you with any help you need - from finding where your riverboat is docked to helping you with finding but eventually replacing your lost phone. Will be highly recommending Hotel Marthof to friends and will return. Cannot thank them enough!

Through no fault of the hotel, construction directly outside hotel was noisy and inconvenient. Hopefully this will be finished soon. Great location for getting around the city. The staff at the front desk was exceptional and we really enjoyed our waiter, Victor, in the dining room.
