Reviews and Ratings
The hotel is located on the shores of the Markermeer, offering a stunning but very touristic environment with many restaurants nearby. The rooms were small, a little cold in character, but had great soft and comfy beds and a convenient, comfy shower, though the noise could be bothersome. Service was helpful, with a minor issue during breakfast. The location is a mix of remote beauty and crowdedness. Dining options were limited, especially for specific dietary needs. The hotel facilities were let down by poor bedroom maintenance.
The hotel had a convenient location in the center of Volendam, making everything easier with good breakfast and friendly staff. However, the upkeep of the hotel needs improvement, especially on the rooms, and the service can be hit or miss.
I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The rooms were clean and spacious, but the fishy smell in my lake view room was not pleasant. The staff were friendly and tried to be helpful, but the service was slow at times. The location was great for exploring the area, although the noise from the exhaust system was disturbing. The dining options were limited for me as a gluten-free guest. Overall, a decent stay with some room for improvement.
My stay at the hotel was pleasant overall. The rooms, although not the newest, were spacious, clean, and offered comfortable beds. The service was friendly and helpful, with a minor hiccup in the billing process. The location was excellent within the quayside area of Volendam, ideal for exploring the surroundings. The dining experience was decent, but improvements could be made in offering more breakfast choices. The facilities were satisfactory, with some areas needing a bit of attention.
