Paleis Het Loo

Its a great place to visit. The tours inside the palace are nice. You can do a tour with a book so you can read from a folder you can get at the start or do an audio tour. Then the gardens are amazing especially when the weather is in your favor. Parking is close and not expensive (€8 for the day day)

Second time visiting after more than 5 years. A great destination to visit with family or friends. A great day out to visit not only the palace but also the garden, the antique cars & carriages collection and the exhibitions. Good facility for visitors such as the toilets, lockers, parking, etc.

Amazing palace, a must visit when you are around. The garden is precious and highly recommended to spend some time outside. The sculptures as well as the plants and flowers are beautiful. The design of the landscape is so cool. Plus, the restaurant is also very good with a scenic view.

We visited this palace over the weekend, what a pleasant surprise! A beautiful palace, it tells a lot about the history of the kings of Holland, about the architecture. A very well preserved palace, the view from the top of the garden is a sight to behold. We loved everything, one of the best palaces we have ever visited.

Beautiful royal palace which is reminiscent of Versailles but on a much smaller, more manageable scale. Very well maintained grounds. A short drive from Amsterdam which can be done as a half day trip.

This is a great place to come and spend 75% of your day. You'll get a chance to visit the inside of the palace as well as wonder around the palace gardens. There are several restaurants that offer food and drink.

Great place to enjoy quiet walks through opulent palatial interiors and perfect French gardens. Many places to enjoy a coffee and something to eat. Early mornings is best to visit, as large crowds gather around noon, especially during weekends. You will be asked to remove your jacket - and be sure to do so, as personnel is very insistent.

We primarily visited the garden today because we visited the house earlier. Because daffodils and tulip season had ended and the perennials still were green, it was rather empty but still a very nice experience with a lovely iced cappuccino at the kiosk in the back. Did you know that the founder of the castle , William the III, chose the building spot because it was in a low place so that the water for the garden that came from higher grounds, was easily led to the fountains and ponds. The garden cannot be visited separately, the entrance is through the house. The house and gardens are accessible to wheelchairs. Catering is provided on several spots.

It is a beautiful Spring day and you feel like going to the museum...ah..I wanted to see this palace and the gardens for some time already. It is located in a beautiful woods and has a great adjacent park. You start with parking close to the stables and car garages. If you feel like already having a small break maybe you can check the restaurant/ cafe which is located in the old garage. They have a great selection of sandwiches, salads, soups and sweets. You can enjoy your break on a nice terrace. If you are already up for it you can start your walk to the palace and the gardens. It will take you about 7 minutes to walk through a really nice alley to the main palace. It is a very big palace. Both wings of the palace host different types of exhibitions. Currently there is Sisi exhibition in one wing and orders in another. Sisi's exhibition was very nice, informative and nicely done. Order exhibition...ah...they make orders they give those to each other...not something that gets much of my attention. Our journey to the main palace started. You go thorugh floors and see different bedrooms, sitting rooms, writing rooms of princes, princesses and the regent queen. I really loved all the different styles of the rooms. You can see rooms in the decor from 17 - 18 century, from 19th century, but also from the 50 of 20th century. Really impressive. I am sure you could just stroll around a lot longer..but the park invites you.. If the weather is great just take your time and stroll through this beautiful park and adjacent forest. On your way back to your car be sure to check the stables and the garages. It is a great museum, little bit off the main route, but definitely worth visiting. I decided to give 4 instead of 5 stars, as I found parking fee, 5 euro on a higher side and there was not sufficient information about the exhibits.

This National museum is a real pleasure to visit. it's been beautifully restored to historic conditions. To walk through it is to gain a sense of past royals and their lives. I do not, however, recommend taking this tour with a toddler! It's a tad too contemplative a stop for the under-five set. The gardens were great for running and exploring, though. This is a place I hope to return to someday (alone), perhaps for one of their special exhibitions.
