Hotel Papendal is widely recognized for its unique identity as a high-performance sports center and the home of Team NL. Guests frequently praise the serene woodland setting, which offers a peaceful escape from the bustle of Arnhem. The on-site restaurant is a highlight, with many reviewers noting the high quality of the food.
