Really poor service
Pretty grumpy staff. Arrived late due to delayed flights. Restaurant closed but wouldn’t give us anything and nothing nearby. Recommend Uber Eats which took 1.5 hours, went back to reception to ask if Uber is relatable. A new member of staff on shift said no we all use a different app but would I like them to make me a sandwich?!? YES!! The bar closes when they like. Second night I asked for a beer at 1030, sorry bar is closed. So I asked why they close early and the answer was ‘we always close at 11’. Yes but it’s 1030? Same happened to another English girl trying to get a drink after me. Perhaps it’s an anti-English thing?! Anyway, overall the staff were plain rude and the room was bang average. No were a 4 star just in the service alone. Will not stay again but unfortunately it’s the hotel my local office recommend. I’ve told them to find other options

Really nice and quiet beautiful hotel.
The hotel was in a very nice and quiet area perfect for those looking for a relaxing quiet stay. The decor was nice and hotel service was excellent. Room was comfortable and clean and parking was in abundance and free. The breakfast however was a little disappointing as a vegetarian with limited choice of hot food and mostly catered for non vegetarians.

Not happy - beds were not comfortable, not the bed we requested ( 1 bed), got key to room but room was not done at all when we entered (towels on the flier etc- you know the drill). Housekeeping was telling front desk while we were standing there, that they could not be expected to have it ready because they were understaffed etc. We stayed several times in this hotel over the last couple of years and loved it. Not going to do it again!

We booked a stay at the hotel that was advertised on the Hotels.com website but when we reached the hotel, the lady at the reception said that the booking could not be found in their system and asked for evidence of booking. After showing the booking confirmation on my phone, she said that the hotel is completely booked and asked us to move to another hotel (also NH) 8 mins away by car. She apologized for the inconvenience and offered us a free drink at the hotel. The standard room we booked was alright for Amsterdam price levels. The building felt a bit dated. But overall it's a good place to stay.

Well located business hotel in Bussum
The quiet hotel is easily accessible from the highway or by taking the train and then an easy walk or taxi. It's located in a residential neighborhood with parks across the street. The hotel is smoothly run by professionals and is mostly used by business people during the week and leisure travelers on the weekend. The breakfast buffet is superb and there is a good restaurant and bar too.

Suburban hotel offers peaceful location
I have stayed at the Jan Tabak many times when visiting the Netherlands. It is close enough to Amsterdam to get into the city quickly and easily by train (or by car as there is free parking on site). However it is in a nice, peaceful setting in a green and leafy suburb surrounded by gardens and a park across the street. There's a nice courtyard where you can eat al fresco and the rooms are spacious by European standards. My only complaint is that there's a heat wave in Holland right now and the hotel's air conditioning system wasn't functioning.

Comfortable, clean & pleasant
I stay here very often because my family live close by. The hotel is very comfortable, clean, good wine selection (!), lovely staff and Bussum is a very safe place - not unimportant when you are a single lady traveller. The newly renovated rooms are my least favourite as I don't think that in most areas they are an improvement. The new armchair (only one left of the two) looks great but is uncomfortable, and the tables and nightstands look cheap and are rickety. Lighting is a lot less cosy than it used to be. The bathroom has improved, although the make-up mirror is no longer lighted and is therefore useless. As the minibar has been moved into the main wardrobe, there is hardly any shelving space left. The lino floor is an improvement, although I wonder whether they get mopped every day... So I book the unrenovated rooms instead, which are much more comfortable and cosy. A huge minus to me are the mattresses which are rock hard. Some people will get a good night's sleep on them, I'm sure, but I'm not one of them.

Nice hotel, shame about the drains.
Overall we had a good stay at Jan Tabak. This hotel was selected because it is of a reasonable standard and has a piano in the foyer. As my boy is a keen pianist and of a sufficiently high standard that when he played on all three evenings he was there he received warm applause from guests and staff. The problem with the hotel is that there is a drain problem which means that the bathroom smells of the sewer if the plugs are left out. It is a great shame as this detracts from what is in all other respects an excellent hotel.
