Wateren Vacations

My red flag is that they should have breakfast included with the price and not as an extra. But also there were fruit flies flying around the bread but whatever there are starving children that would be grateful otherwise. I’m a simple customer and I make the best out all my experiences. The neighborhood around is beautiful. It’s convenient that the location is midpoint between Amsterdam and Zandvoort beach. The shower was good and I slept like a newborn. Staff were sweethearts though. My only thing is that for a family of four with two kids, expect to pay 45 euro extra, that’s two buffets and two continental breakfasts. Also don’t use the toilet downstairs if you have to go number 2, it’s clogged. I would stay again if the price is right and breakfast is actually included and not extra.

This hotel is in an excellent location near Centraal Station and easily accessible to the city. The hotel staff were responsive to messaging and check-in was smooth. The room is very small so would benefit from a few hooks on the walls to help manage belongings in the small space. There was no bath mat to step on. I wasn't confident the bedspread and extra pillow were clean as they had stains and were poor quality material so I just removed them. Overall with a few tweaks this is a great budget hotel.

The best part of this hotel is the staff – every person at the front desk was very kind and friendly, and greeted us with a smile. Thank you so much, as this is worth a lot for a foreign traveler!! The lobby area is decent. But the hotel room itself was just OK. The carpet through the hallways of the hotel, as well as in our room, were dingy and stained. And the room itself was not all that well maintained with large chips in the wall, chipped furniture, etc. And the area in the lobby with free coffee and candy, always had flies. Our room was otherwise clean with comfortable beds. Positives are that the hotel is a short 5 min walk from the central train station and the main tourist road. The hotel is also located in the red light district, which is dingier and dirtier than other parts of the city; but at least it’s at the edge of the red light direct, so within one block you can escape to a more attractive area. So for the €400/night after all the taxes and fees, I had hoped the hotel would be nicer. But overall, it was fine. Truly, the staff made up for a lot.

Les campanules est un hôtel magnifique. Les chambres sont propres, la nourriture est délicieuse et le staff est super gentil. Après avoir passé 7 jours dans la montagne, notre séjour fut très apprécié. Merci!
