Preston Palace must remain pleasant, liveable and safe for everyone. That is why Preston Palace has House Rules and Rules of Conduct for guests. These rules have been drawn up in consultation with the Twente Police, the municipality and the Public Prosecution Service.
1. Registration
You are required to report to the doorman or reception upon commencement of your arrangement.

Preston Palace imposes requirements on clothing; if you fail to meet these requirements you may be denied access. (For example: sportswear/shirts and fancy dress are not permitted).
