Drijfpaleis

There's not enough eyes in your head to fully appreciate the design of this place. From the moment you walk through the front gate, it is a full on assault on your vision with bright colors, textures, knick-knacks, mosaics, tromp-l'oeils and a mish-mash of furniture and accessories. At first glance, the whole thing looks cobbled together by a very dedicated DIY-er. Possibly it is, in a good way. That DIY-er must be the owner Ruud. A cheerful local, happy to share his many stories and tips on the city. Do check out his home-made walking tours through less touristic parts of Arnhem, available in the room. Even if you don't plan on walking them, they make for a remarkable read of loving-but-harsh criticism on the city, mixed with personal experiences. Besides all its quirkiness, Drijfpaleis offers a very comfortable stay. Very big room with stunning views over the river, a very nice bed and spacious bathroom with nice warm shower. The breakfast, brought to your room at 9.00 sharp, is tasty and enough to help you through most of the day. The location, with the city center only a nice stroll away, is top notch. With big balconies and an equally curiously designed garden available, I can only imagine what a great hang this 'll be during warm summer days. Nice details in the rooms include loads of books, a guitar to play, a record player with some vintage vinyls and binoculars to inspect the riverbed on the other side. The minibar is well stocked and affordable, coffee and tea are included and cat Hendrik is around for cuddles if needed. It's not the cheapest stay, but I doubt you'll find a cooler one.
