Hotels in de buurt van Zaanse Schans, Zaandam

My stay at this hotel was a nightmarish experience from start to finish. The level of cleanliness and hygiene was shockingly subpar. The sheets on my bed were clearly not washed, the room hadn't seen the likes of a vacuum cleaner in ages, and to top it off, there were no basic toiletries provided in the bathroom. Instead, I found remnants of someone else's body wash, a truly repulsive discovery that added to the overall sense of neglect. As if the state of the room itself wasn't bad enough, there wasn't even a bin in the room, and the stench that hung in the air was nothing short of atrocious. In our desperate attempt to salvage the situation, we made our way downstairs to seek assistance from the front desk, but our wait for the receptionist to show up only added to the frustration. Upon finally receiving another room, my hopes were quickly dashed, as it turned out to be in even worse condition than the first. The disappointment was palpable, and it was abundantly clear that the hotel's staff lacked the basic courtesy and professionalism that one would expect from any accommodation provider. To make matters even more disheartening, it appears that a significant number of the positive reviews I'd seen before booking this hotel are likely fake, which only deepens my sense of betrayal. In the end, we were left with no other choice but to cut our losses and abandon our reservation. It was an utterly repulsive experience that deserves nothing less than a 0 out of 10 rating, and I would strongly caution anyone considering a stay here to think twice and explore alternative lodging options.

The overall service was amazing. The lack of crib when we arrived was a little let down but staff went above and beyond. We had 2 cribs at 9 am in the morning, best service from the staff. Friendly staff and great hotel

The room is spacious for one person. There js a safety lock and a fridge in the room. Two water bottles are provided on my first day but that’s it. The reception will suggest you to drink water from the tap. The bathroom is in a good size, not too large and not too small. There is no shower curtain, only half cover glass, and therefore the floor outside the shower area will be wet after taking a shower. Hair dryer is available in the bathroom. Decaf coffee and tea are provided. The hotel is in a convenient location, only one station from the Amsterdam centraal. Spar is the name of the convenient store at the Sloterdijk station.

The hotel was great. Very good quality of the equipment. But the services from the Reception was very unkind. The online booking was not great because they announced in Booking website they are not charge the credit card before the the date of the arrival. But they have tried a lot of time to charge my credit card during more than 1 week then they blocked my bank account because my bank though a tentative of fraud. I paid my bank to unblock and made a new credit card. They said it was to save the room... So they are not really in phase with the information giving on their profile in Booking.com. After that, at our arrival, they tried to charge more than expected my reservation (the amount they blocked in my credit card + the full amount of my entire reservation so more than 420 Euros)

Great hotel. Modern, clean with plenty of space in the room. Shower excellent. All amenities provided including a gym and pizza restaurant/bar downstairs. Rate was reasonable and very close to Noord rail station. The only issue is that Noord is a developing area and there is not much going on outside the hotel. A train trip is required to visit downtown Amsterdam which is 2 stops away. Great for business travellers.

Definitely one of the coolest hostel I’ve been. Super cool stuff,easy and fast check in and out , great facilities,bar ,coffee shop , hall area super chill atmosphere. I am very satisfied with my stay in this hostel and with reception staff. Location is perfect too . I had lovely stay and will definitely come again and recommend it to everyone. Only one thing is not good ,check in is at 4pm and check out is at 10am 😭 that’s kinda annoying 🤷♀️ but all other things are just great 🤩🤍

The hotel is located on the outskirts of Haarlem, a good 35-minute walk to the central square. There is very little around it in terms of shops or cafes or restaurants. So calling it ”Haarlem City” is a bit of a stretch! It is a 12-minute walk (through a nice residential area) to Bloemendaal train station, which makes it quite easy to get to Amsterdam. Haarlem's main train station is about a 25-minute walk from the hotel. The rooms are comfortable and good size. But (and this is a big but!) the hotel was built right next to a big sports centre and if your room faces north it will block your window as it is literally in front of it. This is a really poor design choice, it makes affected rooms feel claustrophobic. This is something the hotel should make clear at the time of booking. Parking in front of the hotel costs 7.5 Euros per night. Given its non-central location, you would expect parking to be free. So mixed feelings overall. Nice and spacious rooms, but the issues I mentioned above detract from the overall experience and value for money.

Lovely stay, our second time here! Upon check in Ronald helped us get settled quickly and gave us a great service as he did previously also. Very friendly, warm welcome from him! The complimentary free drink was a nice added touch to the stay, thanks and sure we will be back again

Poor experience. We were traveling with two little children and we requested if possible to have the room ready as we arrived quite early (11 am) but the answer was no or you can wait 30 mins and pay a supplement. Reception team is very junior and they need more training, never a smile or a friendly approach, and the senior staff just hiding in the back office. We had a family room and they were not enough towels bath soap and there was any hairdryer, we had to come downstairs every time as no one was picking up the phone. The only special mention is for the food and beverage manager(Romina and another pregnant lady-sorry I didn’t get your name) super helpful and smiling, thanks. Location wise is very convenient if you have an early flight but there is so little around the hotel, you’ve to get the bus to find a restaurant Breakfast was ok but If you’re a coffee only breakfast person I would suggest the caffè macchiato in front of the hotel, great croissant So I would go back? Definitely not as I wasn’t feeling welcome
