I have taken school groups aged 14-16 to this hotel for 15 years. It is clean and safe and the food is good and plentiful. Madeleine and Rico are fantastic hosts and have helped us out on numerous occasions when things haven't gone quite to plan. Compared to other centres I have experienced on school trips, this one would take... More

went on a school trip there, the people working there looks horrible and wore the same clothes constantly and smelled. cooking was terrible, mouldy bread, toilets smelled horrible! beds were squeaky! were unable to use hairspray/perfume/etc in rooms as it could set smoke alarms off:S small, hardly any plug sockets, small dining room, very unwelcoming staff, only 2 or 3...

This is a fabulous hotel for school trips. This year was my 8th time visiting and it gets better every year. Rico and Madeline are teriffic hosts who provide excellent service and entertainment including discos, karoke (with fantastic equipment) movie nights and xbox. Den Halder is a 1 minute walk to the lovely Valkenburg town centre. The food is great... More

Our school group has used this hotel for 20 years travelling from Northern Ireland and it is simply perfect for our groups of 11 year olds. The food is super, the owners Rico and Madeline provide entertainment including films, discos, etc and nothing is too much trouble for them. Den Halder is central to all Valkenburg’s attractions and for adults... More

I went with a group of about 40 other people with my school. The full holiday was amazing, but the hotel was a very big let down. My room (room 10) was for 6 people. The bunkbeds were loud, shaky and rattled whenever you moved at all. The bathroom smelled of urine before it had even been used by any... More

This Hotel Was the Best I Ever Stayed At, Whoever Writes Those Bad Pointless Reveiws Must Have No Taste! It Was Brilliant, The Food Was Perfect, The Staff Were Friendly, The Rooms Were Clean And There Was Entertainment every Night! e.g. Nintendo Wii, 50 Inch Plasma Screen TV, Pool Table And You Could Handle Their Big Friendly Parrot! So, Really... More

Well, after reading the positive reviews, we made a choice for this hotel and stayed for 3 nights at the Den Halder hotel. Most likely the hotel was completely full, since we got a room in the extension of the hotel (one block away) at the topfloor, i.e. room 47. The room is hardly decorated, it is also used as... More
