The room was clean and modern. I was even given prior warning that during my stay and event was on in their function room, but likely I would not be bothered by the noise. I wasn't bothered by the noise. The location is very good for using the facilities in Emmen town centre. All within walking distance. The bar/terrace was very good and the breakfast selection was also very good.

The gym could be more modern and have some a slightly better selection for some of the training equipment. Having a smart TV which you can use your apps on would be a good idea as this is now a standard feature in other hotels.

Conveniently located at a short distance from the railway station. shops nearby (a Lidl just across the street), coffee shops, restaurants. The room was of a decent size, easily accomodating 3 people. The overhead bed is a great feature. Selection of pillows available on request. The restaurant was very nice, a bit pricey. Breakfast buffet suits many preferences.

Bathroom could have been cleaned better (found hair in the sink) but not a major setback.

I really liked the idea of having a little tea-coffee corner in the room. The bed was extra comfortable and I loved the idea of the slippers that were made in a way of helping the environment. The amount of variation of the food at breakfast was really good. The armchair in the room was really comfortable.

It was a bit cold in the room after a while. While I was sleeping I did not feel cold, but the slippers were an excellent idea. I missed the option of having bathrobes in the rooms, but it was not necessary. The chair was not as comfortable as the armchair.

Ease of check in , considering we were early arriving, the rooms were excellent as were the staff nothing was to much trouble to make our stay enjoyable, the breakfast you could not fault along with the excellent food in the restaurant, looking forward to staying again ,

Creative, thoughtful and unique design, from the furniture in the room (loft bed for our children, for example), to the beautiful garden at the restaurant, to the colorful artwork in the hallways and on the exterior… Unforgettable facility. And very clean!

The sofa bed had evidence of staining but otherwise we found the hotel spotless and were completely comfortable.

The staff at the reception were very friendly and helpful. They spoke multiple languages, normal for Dutch people. The hotel was very clean, you could smell the detergent, it was a nice healthy smell. The restaurant looked very nice, trees and plants filled a dinning area, we didn't use it, but in hindsight I wish we had. Breakfast was good, there was enough to eat and drink. You could even get a coffee to go. We left our car in the spacious car park and rode our bicycles into town. Bike path right into the town and 2 minutes max from the zoo.

There was nothing that I felt was missing.

Nice hotel in a reasonable central location. Large room. Nice staff.

The lighting in the room was very muted, especially the ceiling lights - enough that it was annoying. A small fridge in the room would have been appreciated. The room was the first on the floor after the elevator, which did lead to some noise from other guests passing in the corridor.

The Ten Cate was a great stop off for our holiday. The staff were lovely helpful and very friendly, nothing too much trouble. They were very good with our big party of 10 people and managed to fit us in for dinner even though we had not booked. Thank you all very much. Hope we will see you again!

Good location, friendly staff. I really liked that there is a recreation area outside, if you live on the first floor. On the upper floors there is a balcony.

The bed was a little uncomfortable, but overall I liked everything.

Friendly staff, comfy bed, nice room and bath. I only stayed for a night so didn't use many of the facilities, but breakfast was pretty good. Person at reception did their best to help me find a quiet room. Easy walking distance to city centre and Wildlands.

This is only really applicable to light sleepers, but the hotel is right next to a main road, and although the hotel seems well insulated against noise, I'd still recommend earplugs. More veg options for the hot breakfast would also be good.
