Palace Het Loo is located next to the hotel. 
Tsar Peter the Great of Russia was one of its first guests.

In May 2015, Oscar Meijer creator from the Dutch blog 'De Staat van Oranje',
which you can read on this link, stayed in de Keizerskroon. He liked this hotel,
the rooms were very nice and clean and de Keizerskroon had an outstanding
Breakfast. The staff also was very attentive and kind. 

In May 2017, my husband and I had the opportunity to stay in this lovely hotel. 
We had the same experience as the one of Oscar Meijer in 2015. The hotel has
a great location near Het Loo palace.
