Novotel Aachen City
This was a very comfortable room,and all the staff were very helpful. There was no hand basin in the toilet in the room. Which is not sanitary. The breakfast was high standard. The downstairs bar was well stocked and the barman was welcoming.

Crowne Plaza Maastricht by IHG
Very nice staff, location and comfortable. Unfortunately they would not give points when from an Expedia reservation. Not sure why, but this would make me choose a different route.
