This is the perfect place to be! The hôtel is unique and very nice. Our room was original, very comfortable and clean. The staff was lovely. The food was good and very enough. Thesen Island is also very nice. I definitely recommend this hotel.

Highly innovative concept for a hotel - a previous power plant converted to a boutique hotel situated in a delightful island/water envrionment. The conversion very cleverly and attractively retained much of the original machinery and industrial character of the power plant - that artistic theme maintained throughout the hotel. Our room was very well-equipped and had great canal views. The... More

I am an architecture student from Cape Town, currently doing a thesis on the Turbine Hotel. Had the pleasure of staying in the Turbine in Feb and May 2013. Both times I was overwhelmed with the wonderful service and the luxury accommodation. The hotel itself is breath-taking. Rooms are light, airy, spacious and very comfortable, and breakfast was included! Overall... More

This personnel touch is rare these days and was... More

Arrived at Turbine Hotel we where quite surprised. I had my doubts on how they would transform an old industrial plant into a hotel. I must admit that a great job. The look and feel is a good reason to have a visit. However did it match the 5* standards what they pretend? No! Still a long way to go.... More

Highly recommended by the locals for the excellence of the food. We were not disappointed, a great meal, reasonably priced and not overcharged for the wine. The conversion of the building from a wood fired power station into a smart hotel and restaurant is very interesting, clever and stylish.
