The best customer service !
When I arrived at the hotel the ground floor was in darkness of what looked like a beautiful bar/Cafe so I thought it was closed. Then I was greeted by a absolutely lovely man who was so friendly and helpful ! I would go back to the hotel just for the service they could not do enough for me even making me a take away breakfast! A lot of big chains could learn about customer service from this gentleman. Yes the room was a little dated and need a little bit of love but honestly you forget all that with the charm and care from the staff

The property is quaint and old-fashioned. The room was a little small. The main knock is that the shower area is not separated from the rest of the bathroom at all, so the water is all over the floor which presented problems very nice breakfast

A lovely place
A lovely place, with really friendly helpful staff. Breakfast on the terrace was a real treat, with fresh, tasty ingredients. Conveniently located in the centre of this pleasant seaside town, close to two National Parks.

Clean good sized room with large balcony overlooking lively tourist street. This comes with some noise.Steep stairs could be a problem for some.Parking @ 5 Euro per day reasonable but awkward as hotel is on pedestrianised street.You have to get parking permit from hotel first find parking space then return.You need to be organised with luggage as returning to car can be irritating if you forget something.Good for a short break.

Ik heb 1 nacht in dit hotel geslapen ivm een zakelijk bezoek. Het was fijn dat ik in de avond kon aankomen en vroeg in de ochtend kon vertrekken. Dat was te vroeg voor het ontbijtbuffet, maar ik kreeg een prima pakket mee om op de kamer te kunnen ontbijten. Er is een grote ondergrondse parkeergarage op heel korte afstand, waar nachtparkeren heel goedkoop is. De externe badkamer is prima en voor privegebruik. Zeer behulpzame eigenaar, dus zeker de moeite waard bij een volgend bezoek aan Zandvoort

Das Zimmer war sehr sehr klein, tv so klein dass man aus dem Bett kaum gucken konnte. Keinen kleine Kühlschrank. Sehr spartanisch eingerichtet. Frühstück war gut. Leider Viel zu teuer die Preise für das sehr kleine Zimmer. Bettwäsche sollte angeblich mach 3 Tagen gewechselt werden, wurde es aber nicht. Leider nicht zufriedenstellend.

Groot appartement boven het restaurant. Vriendelijke mensen. Jammer dat jezelf niet de verwarming kan regelen maar als je dat zegt dan wordt daar gelijk iets aan gedaan. Het ligt aan de winkelstraat dus s morgens veel geluid ivm schoonmaken straat, advies is om oordopjes mee te nemen. Maar wij vonden het geweldig en de kans dat wij terug komen is zeker reeel!

Es handelt sich um ein altes Bäderhotel, weshalb man darüber hinwegsehen muss, dass der Fußboden knarrt, es nicht so viele Steckdosen gibt, man steile Treppen steigen muss. Meine Freundin und ich baten jedoch das Personal, uns die Koffer in den 2. Stock zu tragen, welches auch ganz ohne Murren erledigt wurde. Das Hotel ist zauberhaft und das Personal sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit. Das Frühstück ist inbegriffen und TOP. Wir würden jederzeit wiederkommen, der Strand ist nicht weit, der Bahnhof auch nicht. Wir sind mit dem Zug angereist.

naja so so
Auf meine Anfrage, ob man auch nach 20 Uhr einchecken kann wurde erst nach meinem 3. Mail geantwortet. Sehr mühevoll! Der Aufenthalt war ok aber nicht besonders. Ich hätte mir mehr erwartet. Das Zimmer war sehr hellhörig, man hörte jeden Schritt des Gastes oberhalb. Die Chefin dutzt offensichtlich jeden Gast. Obwohl Steuern und Abgaben bei meiner Reservierung inklusive waren, hat mir das Hotel die Ortstaxen extra in Rechnung gestellt. Ich empfehle die Rechnung aufzuheben und gegebenfalls bei hotels.com zu reklamieren. Insgesamt stimmt das Preis-/ Leisungsverhältnis nicht: überteuerte Übernachtung, überteuertes Essen und Trinken im Restaurant, trotz “fairer Preise“ wie seitens Hotel Homepage die Rede. Insgesamt: naja mit Schulnote 4+

Eenvoudig, mar goed hotel
Prima, eenvoudig, hotel met een weliswaar kleine, maar nette kamer. Hotel heeft een mooi groot terras, een grand café met uitgebreide kaart. De vriendelijkheid en service van eigenars en medewerkers is uitstekend. Omdat ik voor de aanvang van de ontbijttijd vertrok, was voor mij een lunchpakket klaargemaakt. Parkeren met een parkeerkaart van het hotel (€ 5,00) in de nabije omgeving.
