A great and charming hotel. We had a floating room and it was quite an experience. The room was well equipped with partly "expensive " objects. The garden is beautiful. Dinner was made of fresh food, perhaps a little bit more fantasy would have been a plus. Moreover, the cleaning service could make an effort. Spider webs are acceptable in a nature environment, but not dust.

Really enjoyed our stay here it was a good base to explore the region on bikes. The local area has all the services that you will need if you are on a bike tour and it's a great location to use as a basis to explore the region.

Boat house
Stayed in the boat house. Lovely clean place on the water with beautiful views and rooms but booked a room at this hotel specifically because it had air con as i had been working in a hot factory all day. However, there were no rooms left with air con. There were a lot of spiders which i am an arachnophobe so made me very uncomfortable. Breakfast was limited. Pait €17 and basically only had a couple of coissants and a coulle of slices of bread.

Loved staying here! The property and rooms had so much character and charm. The restaurant was enjoyable. We ate there for dinner and again at breakfast. The bed was one of the most comfortable I’ve ever slept in. So comfortable that i emailed the hotel after our stay to inquire about the bedding. They shared with me where they bought their pillows, mattress and bedding. I bought the sheets and won’t ever buy other sheets ever again! What a fun place to visit and experience.

Return visitor.
Stayed here a few times in the garden rooms. Nice and spacious and the restaurant has good food. Could do with having some larger beer glasses for the Britain’s. it has its own car park if you are driving. 20 mins walk from the train station and centre.

I have never been to hotel like this unique before. I received a 'floating room,' which is on the water. The view from my room is beautiful. The staff are very friendly, and the breakfast is very fresh. I will definitely stay here again on my next visit to this area.

Had room on top floor looking towards landward side. Very spacious with exposed metal and wood roof structure. Clean and well-equipped room with large double bed. Access was by external, glazed lift with wide views. Staff at check in helpful. Took breakfast in restaurant in separate building across garden. Good buffet. Minor points to note were that the safe in the room did not lock and that a thunderstorm with heavy rain was noisy on the roof. Neither caused us problems but might affect others.

Nice hotel with views. Bit aged. But has character and would likely come back again. Breakfast / restaurant a bit of an acquired taste, but going for the whole organic vibe which is prob better for some ppl. Nice boutique option

Beautiful hotel
I loved Villa Augustus... fabulous gardens and good location, great food in the restaurant including lots of produce from their own gardens. Beware that not all rooms have aircon though fans are provided on request. Staff were very friendly and helpful, and any problems (issue with a room door lock) were quickly dealt with. I hope to stay there again and would recommend it to friends and family for a break, not just for business.

Whimsy and gorgeous gardens
Villa Augustas is a gorgeous, whimsical hotel surrounded by formal and informal gardens. It's also on the river. We loved the unique water tower room we stayed in, with massive steel beams running across the ceiling and a row of small windows looking over the flower and veggie garden. It's well-located for a visit to the Biesbosch National Park, only a 10-15 minute drive away. It's unlike any hotel we've stayed in and we would highly recommend it.

Villa Augustus was wonderful! We enjoyed a delicious meal at their on-site restaurant and toured the gardens and grounds in the morning. The staff were more than accommodating and I would recommend this hotel to others.

Unique building with a fantastic garden
Lovely garden, unique building (it's a converted water tower), it's nicely located near the river and it's got a nice restaurant in a seperate building. Really enjoyed my stay. In summer it's fantastic to sit outside in a quiet corner of the garden.

Weird and wonderful hotel.
A stay here is a must on anyone's "hotels to stay in" list!!! A quirky stile in an old water tower with a great look and style! The hotel has been carefully restructured and tastefully furnished giving a delightful feeling as you enjoy your time there. I stayed in two different rooms on two occasions, one high up on the 6th and a lower, both were equally lovely. Comfortable with good wifi and loads of space in the room. The restaurant serves good food in the evening and a great breakfast in the morning. Well worth the stay!

Holland is not just Amsterdam
Villa Augustus is truly one of the best hotels I have ever stayed in. It's stunning silhouette looks like a scene from Batman or Blade Runner and inside it has a stylish industrial edge that sets it apart from anywhere else. Our room on the 6th floor had stunning views over the magnificent gardens and was large and very comfortable. The staff are young, extremely friendly and ever so helpful. The hotel has a restaurant situated across the garden and this too shares the same industrial, coffee-shop chic styling. The food is magnificent; from the sumptuous buffet breakfast of home cooked bread, fruit, preserves, cheese, ham... it goes on forever, to the elegant meals produced from the fecund vegetable garden. All fresh tasty and great value. I would urge anyone to think a little differently when holidaying in Holland. Jump on train from Amsterdam and an hour later you'll be staying at one of the best hotels in Europe.
