Leuke ooverloop en trappen en glas in lood. Ontbijtzaal was ook gezellig, maar de kamee was klein, met 1 kleine kast in midden. De badkamer was kil en er waren te weinig plekken om je spulletjes daar neer te zetten.

Hotel experience Fletcher
Mijn verblijf was 1 nacht. Zeer hartelijke ontvangst en nette kamer. De vloerbedekking zou een reinigi gsbeurt kunnen gebruiken. Uitstekend ontbijt en heel goede lunch fa oliteit voor onderweg. De moeite wssrd voor een herhalingsbezoek.

Disappointing stay
According to the description of the room, I was supposed to have a double bed but I ended up with a small single bed. The bed sheet was not clean with a big spot on it. Furthermore, the room was very cold when I arrived. In general, the room I had did not represent at all a 3-star hotel and was completely different than the photos I saw on hotels app. Compared to the price I paid for the room, it’s so far the worst room I booked on hotels application.

Room needed attention, walls were badly marked in places. No facility for tea/coffee in room, had to ask for hair dryer and iron. Great location, but room is very basic. Staff very friendly but more of them needed during breakfast and to staff the cafe.

We loved the building, a very unique place to stay, a beautiful old building with timber work and lead lights in the main areas. We had a room with a balcony overlooking the courtyard. The rooms are quite small.

If you are looking for a fancy hotel, this is not it. Still, I have been a few times in the hotel now. The entrance hall of the building is cool. The rooms are very clean but simple and good if you need the room to sleep and not to work. The staff is very friendly, the breakfast is good. I will be back.

This is by some standards a historic building with a beautiful central staircase. I had a room under the roof, very basic but clean. But that was all I needed. Good breakfast.

Everything was great! Location is perfect, staff is always here to help you and the breakfast was more than good! Just mind stairs to the last floor can be steep just like in almost all hotels in Holland.

Historic hotel
Historic hotel in the city centre of Deventer. Beautiful building, but in need of a makeover! They mostly kept the hotel in its former hospital conditions. Rooms are basic, but clean and quite. Nice courtyard for breakfast.

Box rooms
Room was tiny like a matchbox and nothing in the room. No tea coffee facility, no drinking water, you will get a room of the size of bed with nothing else in it. Will not go back again.

I'll Come back to the Gilde Hotel in Deventer.
This has been my favorite Hotel for many years. I have stayed there at least five times if not more. Every time I get a different room, and since each room is unique, that adds to the experience. I love the friendliness of the staff. They are alert and remember what I need. I enjoy the breakfast and use the small bar as my office away from home. Deventer is such a friendly city with so many choices for eating out, I haven't even tried 10% of them yet.

Great location, amazing building
Wonderful conversion of 19th century convent building with lovely woodwork and stained glass in the public areas. Right in the medieval heart of Deventer close to main sights, restaurants and shops. Spacious, spotless room overlooking courtyard - huge, well-equipped bathroom. Relaxing background sounds of church bells and birdsong. Friendly, helpful staff and very good breakfast.

Lovely hotel in excellent location
This hotel is housed in a former convent, and the building is beautiful. There is a lovely courtyard for breakfast (which was great). And the rooms are large, very clean and modern. Also, they rent bikes for a very reasonable rate and it's a great home base for rides in the Dutch countryside. The staff was super friendly and helpful, and the location is on a quiet, quaint street in this very pretty city. I would definitely stay here again.

Ideal city location
Hotel had wonderful atmosphere. Staff very helpful and friendly. Situated in old town, so near to lovely old town sights, cafes, shops and restaurants. Breakfast very good buffet, and relaxed. Room rather small, conversion suffered from problems of converting from old premises[former nunnery].

Wij hadden kamer 23 in het Fletcher hotel te Deventer en helaas bleken er diverse dingen in dit hotel niet in orde te zijn. 1. wij hadden een 2 persoons bed waar je niet makkelijk in kon gaan liggen omdat het bed 15 cm van de muur stond. Ook was er aan deze kant geen nachtkastje of plank waardoor wij spullen op de grond moesten plaatsen. De kwaliteit van het matras viel ook zwaar tegen. 2. de w.c.bril konden wij niet omhoog klappen omdat hij dan terugviel. 3. de kraan van de wastafel bleek geen zeefje in te zitten waardoor de kraan alle kanten op spatte! 4. er waren in de kamer slechts 2 kleine handdoekjes en na onze melding hiervan werden de handdoeken niet aangevuld dus douchen was praktisch onmogelijk. 5. de ventilatie in de badkamer zat geen filter in maar er zat gewoon een gat in het plafond. 6. de lift was defect waardoor je steeds met de trap naar boven of beneden moest. Deze punten in aanmerking genomen blijkt dit hotel absoluut een grote flop te zijn en ik kom hier ook zeker niet weer...!!! Iedereen die van plan is om dit hotel te nemen zal ik het sterk afraden!

Response from Fletcher Hotel Gilde on 21 Feb 2024
Geachte heer en mevrouw Van der Laan,Allereerst hartelijk bedankt voor uw review op expedia.com.Wij betreuren het ten zeerste dat uw verblijf bij Fletcher Hotel Gilde niet geheel naar wens is verlopen. Hiervoor bieden wij u onze welgemeende excuses aan.Dagelijks zijn wij bezig om ons hotel met al haar facetten zo optimaal mogelijk te laten functioneren en aan de wensen van onze gasten te voldoen.Uw feedback is dan ook zeer welkom.De punten die u noemt in uw e-mail, aangaande het toilet, de kraan, de afzuiging en geen grote handdoeken op de kamer zullen wij zeker oppakken met onze technische dienst en huishouding om dergelijke ervaringen in de toekomst te voorkomen. De lift heeft u ook vermeld in uw mail en omdat het een ouder type lift is kunnen wij niet direct een binnen paneel hiervoor krijgen. Deze is al een aantal weken in bestelling en wij wachten hier met smart op. Echter is het Fletcher Hotel Gilde een monumentaal pand en zijn de kamers gemaakt in wat toentertijd het Deventer ziekenhuis was. Hierdoor is elke kamer uniek in zijn ruimte. Dit betekend dat de kamer die u gehad heeft inderdaad iets kleiner is als een andere kamer. Er zijn ook kamers met lage plafonds. De meeste van onze gasten waarderen dan ook zeer de sfeer die ons hotel echt bijzonder maakt. De muurtjes, de torentjes de verstopte hoeken hier en daar en boogjes in een kamer en het glas in lood, dit alles tekent ons als een klooster hotel midden in het hartje van Deventer. Wij vinden het daarom ook erg jammer dat u het niet leuk vond bij ons. Maar smaken zijn verschillend, en dat is goed ook. Elke kamer ziet er bij ons anders uit. Wellicht dat u een andere kamer leuker zult vinden.Nogmaals willen wij u hartelijk bedanken voor de tijd die u genomen heeft om uw bevindingen met ons te delen, dit stelt ons in staat om kritisch naar ons hotel te blijven kijken en ons te blijven ontwikkelen.
