Barbara Arning Great location, but some minus points: 8 September 2010; 6.8; + location is great; - we asked for a "quiet room" - got one at the backside of the hotel - where every night we listened to the shouting and celebrating of folks drinking the night away - it disturbed our sleep -no parking - parking garage 35Euro/day! -the mattresses in room 124 should be changed soon, not comfortable anymore

Anonymous Perfect location: 5 September 2010; 9.4; + Perfect location of hotel.; - Pricy breakfast and parking.

Morne Homan Stunning Hotel situated right next to the Grote Kerk in Haarlem.: 5 August 2010; 9.2; + * Hotel is situated right next to the Grote Kerk in Haarlem within walking distance from all the great attractions including museums, Great Market and shops. * Extremely friendly and helpful staff. * Free Wifi * 10 min walk from the train station; - None.

Karla Ryckborst Perfect hotel for price and location: 5 August 2010; 9.0; + Excellent location, close to many shops and restaurants/cafes. Close location to the train station. Lovely town! Our room was plenty big to accomodate our luggage, a stroller and crib.

Lutz Kramer Delightful stay in a nice alternative to the hurry of Amsterdam: 30 July 2010; 9.8; + Attentive staff.

P. Schliker Good quality accommodation in a great location: 19 July 2010; 8.4; + Great location easy to get to by train, bus or taxi. Friendly staff. Clean room and very clean bathroom. Rates quite reasonable for peak season.; - Rooms 302 and 303 had bad smells that could not be eliminated. Pillows are square and not rectangular and sit up too high. They are also too hard. Prefer rectangular softer feather or foam pillows.

Anonymous Excellent hotel in the heart of Haarlem.: 28 June 2010; 8.8; + Excellent location, very friendly and helpful staff, quality of food and drinks good.; - Breakfast over priced - especially when compared with other nearby quality hotels and locally available food. No restaurant.

WALLOIS Denis Perfect days: 4 January 2010; 10; + Good quality of service and nice welcome, nice city; - we would more appreciate a large bed than twin, but all was fine

Leonardus Selter Very Good if climatisation works and if kitchen smells are controlled: 9 November 2009; 6.4; + good location, nice people at the front desk, nice service, very clean and practical to mouve around old town; - Poor with maintenance in the rooms. Very cold in the room, air continioning heating not working properly and bad smell from the climatisation. The bathroom door strong noice when closing and opening. Room of our friends next door very cold too. Individual duvets vey small

Ivonne Allers Pleasant but noisy stay: 26 October 2009; 6.2; + We enjoyed being so close to the town centre. Parking possiblilty underneath the hotel.; - Unfortunately we had a room on the first floor at the side and were woken up many times during the night due to the noice of the pub around the corner. I think the hotel should invest in noise proof windows as this is very anoying now but specialy if you would have paid the full price for the room in the hotel. It felt we were sleeping with an open window!! You should have a parking discount for cutomers. To pay 60 euroÂ´s for 2 days is a bit much!

Pablo Fernandez-Olano MUY BUENO: 2 September 2009; 9.4; + Hotel bueno para viajr de negocios.Con habitaciones bastante amplias e impecables. La ubicación es estupenda, ya que está en el mismo centro de Haarlem.; - Un poco caro para lo que es. Es un hotel de negocios. No tiene parking, y es bastante complicado el llegar a la puerta con las maletas ya que eL centro de Haarlem es 100% peatonal. El precio no incluye desayuno

Jacqueline Nice place to stay: 24 August 2009; 9.2; + Although only one night, we had a very pleasant en comfortable stay. We made use of a special offer, which appeared to be about 1/3 of the original room rate. Price-quality ratio therefore was oke, but the original rate is way overpriced. The room was nice but small without special features; - The original room rate is far overpriced for this room, which appeared to be rather small and simple.

Erik B.D. Good value for money. Amsterdam substitute.: 18 August 2009; 8.6; + in city, yet quiet. Good train connection to Amsterdam and Zandvoort. Stay here and take train into Amsterdam.; - parking too expensive

Thomas Donald A Happy Stay: 13 August 2009; 9.0; + the hotel was very easy to book though hotels.nl The room was lovely, and the bathroom particularly nice. The A/C was great! The hotel gave an impression of easy going efficiency. A wonderful position right in the centre of the old town, near to museums, art galleries, and the truly amazing Grote Kerk. We were very pleased with the free wireless internet too.; - We would have preferred the option of a double bed.

Anonymous: 12 July 2009; 8.8; + Free Internet & Drinking water Large save box; - Few International TV Chnels

Anonymous Great value at a great location: 17 May 2009; 9.4; + This hotel was a great value for the location. The staff was friendly and helpful. The room was large (based on European standards) and very clean. Loved the free use of the internet so we could contact family to let them know of our safe arrival.; - Didn't have breakfast here. Thought it was too pricey.

David A great choice for Haarlem: 14 May 2009; 9.4; + Helpful staff, great location, free interenet access; - expensive breakfast (we ate elswhere)

M Houghton: 10 May 2009; 7.8; + The location of the hotel was very good and the rooms were nicely decorated. The bed was very comfortable.; - All the water stations on our floor were empty when we arrived and still empty when we left. I had asked for an ice pack, to ease a bad back and reduce swelling on my leg. This never arrived. The dressing gowns were a lovely idea but the toweling fabic was hard to the touch. In the bath there were anti slip stickers also a good idea but where you actually step in the bath there are none. I slipped and bruised my leg quite badly.

Anonymous Very good if you can get a cheap deal: 15 April 2009; 9.4; + Got a cheap last minute deal - normally way out of my price range. It's a nice comfortable hotel, right in the middle of Haarlem. Big rooms, good bathroom; - My room at the back was a bit noisy during the night. People seemed to talk very loud in the lane below. Breakfast overpriced if you don't eat much.

Han Bloemendal: 14 April 2009; 7.6; + Location; - Breakfast

David Cocker Good hotel but breakfast expensive.: 6 April 2009; 6.0; + Nice clean Hotel in good location. Service good.; - Breakfast cost extortionate. Ate elsewhwere.

Johannes Bakker Totally happy with service, facilities and location.: 5 April 2009; 9.8; + Excellent in every way. We were very happy with the hotel at the special rate.; - No complaints about anything. It would be nice, however, to have some slightly better prices on breakfasts.

Mostert Central hotel in Haarlem, good quality: 29 December 2008; 9.0; + Beautiful staircase. Good room. Silent.; - No rebate on parking costs

Peter Jeffs Excellent facilities & hospitality - expensive room & b/Fast Rate: 17 November 2008; 7.8; + Extremely helpful staff; internet connection for work.; - Price; expensive room rate and breakfast was overpriced for the type of meal.

Joe & Elaine We were very happy and would come to stay again.: 7 September 2008; 10; + We were pleaed with everything, and especially being given a larger room than at first. This made our stay with you much more enjoyable . Thank you to the reception staff.; - One thing I feel is a must for the rooms is a suitcase stand , as with two suitcases on the floor and bending down to get things out of them is a bit backbreaking , especially when we are older ...

Lubka Tzenova This is a perefect hotel I ever use: 31 August 2008; 10; + Good location - quiet place,nice discount and perfect service.; - no notes

Adams: 1 June 2008; 7.8; + We received exellent service from the reception staff in locating and then collecting from your Amsterdam Hotel a handbag left in a taxi.; - Bedroom lacked milk each day.

Anonymous: 20 May 2008; 8.0; + lovely hotel. friendly and helpful service. nice and clean.; - I think a double bed should be just that and not two twins pushed together. It makes for an exceedingly uncomfortable night's sleep. Mini bar would have been nice too.

Susan: 22 April 2008; 9.4; + Very helpful staff.Aalthough there is nowhere for guests to store luggage if they will not be leavibg before the check out time, they did keep my suitcases for me.; - The bed was too soft and this meant I had a stiff back when I got up. The non slip section of the shower did not extend to where you had to get out and this meant you were in danger of slipping as you got out of the shower.This non slip section should be extended.Also there was only a half partition to prevent water from going onto the floor while taking a shower. I found that sometimes water did go onto the floor.

Anonymous: 15 April 2008; 8.0; + Comfortable bed, nice interior and bathroom was good and clean.; - Street can be quite noisy at weekend nights, but if you close the window the room gets stuffy rather quickly. Overall well worth it's money.

Geoff Lewis: 8 April 2007; 9.0; + New hotel, very clean, great location close to everything.; - Pillows were too big for a goog nights sleep. The choice of a smaller pillow would be good.

Anonymous: 15 January 2007; 8.0; + Nieuw, modern en goede ligging (als de straat klaar is) Goed ontbijt Vriendelijk personeel; - Geen TV vanwege de 'storm' Kamer wat klein en krap voor een 'luxe' etiquet Glas deur in de badkamer mooi maar niet sluit niet goed; dus geen privacy Vroeg in de morgen (630)werk buiten dus niet rustig wat uitslapen

Dhr. & Mevr. Jonkers: 3 January 2007; 8.2; + Rustige sfeer ondanks het feit dat het midden in de stad is.

michel van der Pluijm: 24 December 2006; 6.0; + Middle of town centre. Nice room.; - Unfriendly reception personnel (one of them). Offer to pick-up something from the room was charged for 4 euros. No twinbeds.(not available at all). Only one bathrobe. Hot water varying much in temperature. Used nail-file. Breakfast ordercard was lost. No fresh orange juice. Shortterm reservation not received by hotel( they were very fussy about it). Bad smell in elevator. Average quality breakfast. Small bathtub.

Anonymous Redelijk hotel, iets te duur. Wel toplocatie: 24 October 2011; 7.6; + Nette schone kamer.; - Douche waar mensen tot 1.60m prima kunnen douchen, iedereen die langer is heeft pech. Geen tweepersoonsbed maar 2 eenpersoonsbedden.

Anonymous Kamer en ligging prima. Geur en herrie minder...: 3 October 2011; 7.2; + Ligging is top, prima bedden, badkamer en kamer, personeel vriendelijk.; - Het rook in de lobby en kamer naar riolering. En redelijk rumoerig vanwege de ligging in centrum. Prijs/kwaliteit vind ik te hoog (120euro per kamer, terwijl ontbijt hier niet eens bij zit)

Anonymous Goed, net hotel, makkelijk bereikbaar, schoon, midden in Haarlem.: 19 September 2011; 7.8; + Parkeergarage onder hotel, goed bereikbaar in de stad.; - In de morgen geen warm water, wel een oud hotel probleem, zou niet meer voor moeten komen!
