Very overrated hotel, to be honest.
The best thing was the location!
Rooms were spacious and pretty, and thankfully with an openable window, but not very functional. A tub, sink, and shower was in an open arrangement with the bed and rest of the room (not very helpful if one is getting ready and having friend(s) over; therefore only suitable for couples).
Toilet was in a separate room inside the hotel room, which was extremely small and one could barely lean forward without hitting your head on the wall.
Also, not really anything on the walls in the warehouse nor hotel room, making the entire place echoey and audibly uncomfortable.
Shower was old and extremely slow, and its floor was cracking and rusty.
No plug point near mirror for using haircare appliances.
Beds were very hard and the springs could be easily felt. Though we thought we booked a double bed, it turned out to be 2 singles pushed together.
Breakfast was extremely simple, not many options, bread was hard (almost like crackers), no warm food except boiled eggs.
Worst of all was the lack of service. No information was given as to how breakfast was organised (that one would sit down and get a plate of whatever is available). And even though it says 24h service, the reception is only open between 9am and 9pm, plus one would have to call using your own cellphone, as no phone was installed in the room.
All in all, this hotel capitalises on their old castle and good location, but without ‘going the extra mile’ to make it nice, comfortable or convenient for its guests. Feels more like they try to cut every corner possible to keep down costs.

You are not sleeping in the castle itself but a warehouse next to the water.
Location is very good in the centre of the city

Quirky, quiet and comfy rooms in the old grain store across the street. Our room had a nice view across a canal to the city museum and central square.

Great place! We slept in a refurbished warehouse (pakhuis) but had diner and breakfast in the actual castle. The warehouse has great rooms. Spacious, light with a great shower and bath. Awesome! Diner is simple bit very good. Loved the loaded fries! Great place in the middle of Coevorden!

Happy joyful hosts, quality dining. Loved the room with the wooden rafters, the tub, the views on the canal
