Fletcher Hotel De Nieuwe Doelen - Middelburg

Nearby the train station

If people’s coming back in the midnight, talking to loud at the hallway

Lovely hotel, great location

The hotel facilities is good.

It is all in order

Breakfast on the balcony. And the sign of a neighbouring hotel peeking over the garden fencing. Please understand: I like the comic effect of it, a Fawlty Towers like prank. The sign wouldn't make the competing hotel an option for us, on the contrary. But this little insight in provincial competition etiquette was hilarious.

Normally I wouldn't complain about not having an airconditioned room, but that day had been very hot. Strange arrangement of combined toilet/shower but the washstand inside the hotelroom. In the pictures the hotel gave the impression of being conserved provincial grandeur, which maybe it is but then reupholstered by a colourblind interior decorator. We did like all those tiny steps and platforms, twisty corridors. Older buildings posess so much more character.
