English term or phrase: good hostelry

This family run hotel prides itself on preserving the tradition of quality, service and good hostelry at a reasonable price to all those discerning people who favour us with the pleasure of their company.

Could anyone give me a good Dutch expression for "good hostelry" that fits in this rather "flowery" sentence?

gastheerschap

Explanation:
Jammer genoeg is dit de term en is er geen neutrale term, die ook het gastvrouw-zijn in aanmerking neemt.

vakmanschap

Explanation:
Blijkbaar verstaan ze hun vak als hotelier goed, iets meer dus dan klantvriendelijkheid. Ik kan zo geen betere term vinden.

(goede) hotelaccommodatie

Explanation:
"Hostelry" betekent volgens de Engelse woordenboeken die ik erop nasloeg gewoon "hotel providing overnight lodging for travelers, inn, lodging"
