Hotel ibis Schiphol Amsterdam Airport

Hotel ibis Schiphol Amsterdam Airport

10/10 Excellent
"Did the job nicely, the outside of the building is a bit worn and weathered but the inside is very modern and some work is ongoing to improve it further. Really useful self scan mini shop at reception although maybe a bit pricey. Very friendly, helpful staff. The room was maybe slightly on the basic side but nothing to complain about at all. Free airport shuttle runs a lot at almost all hours of the day too. Definitely recommend!"

Which area of Alkmaar is best to stay in for cheap hotels?
For budget-conscious travellers seeking affordable accommodation in Alkmaar, focusing on areas just outside the immediate city centre or near the train station often yields the best value. These locations provide good access to the city's main attractions without the premium price tag of staying right in the heart of things.

Solo travellers might find a good selection of smaller, independent hotels and guesthouses in the areas surrounding the Alkmaar Centraal train station. This offers excellent connectivity, making it easy to explore the city on foot or hop on a train for day trips to nearby towns like Bergen aan Zee or Schoorl. You'll often find more great prices here compared to properties directly overlooking the canals.

For couples, looking slightly west of the main shopping streets, towards the Kennemerstraatweg or Bergerweg areas, can uncover some quieter residential spots with affordable hotels.
What are the top-rated cheap hotels for families in Alkmaar?
For families seeking top-rated, affordable accommodation in Alkmaar, excellent choices include Hotel Stad en Land and Grapèlli Boutique Hotel.

The 3-star Hotel Stad en Land, with an 8.0 rating, offers free WiFi and rooms with a balcony or terrace, providing a pleasant space for families. It's situated in a historical district, which can be interesting for exploring with children.

Alternatively, the 3-star Grapèlli Boutique Hotel, boasting an impressive 9.6 rating, also provides free WiFi and features a kitchen in its accommodations, which is a great amenity for families looking to prepare their own meals.
When is the most affordable time to visit Alkmaar?
The most affordable time to visit Alkmaar is generally during the shoulder seasons—spring (April to early May, excluding King's Day) and autumn (late September to October). During these periods, the weather is pleasant, and you can often find lower prices for accommodation and flights compared to the peak summer months.

Solo travellers will find these times particularly appealing as the city is less crowded, allowing for a more relaxed exploration of its charming canals and historic centre. You can enjoy attractions like the famous Cheese Market (which runs from April to September) without the huge throngs of tourists, and many museums and attractions will have shorter queues.

While the summer (June to August) is popular for its warm weather and full schedule of events, prices for hotels and flights tend to be at their highest. Conversely, winter (November to March) can offer some of the lowest prices, but many outdoor attractions might be less enjoyable due to colder weather and shorter daylight hours.
Is Alkmaar a budget-friendly destination?
Yes, Alkmaar is a budget-friendly destination, especially if you're looking for an authentic Dutch experience away from the busier and often pricier capital.

Solo travellers and couples will find that many of Alkmaar's charms are free or very low-cost. Exploring the historic city centre on foot, with its picturesque canals and charming gabled houses, costs nothing. The famous Cheese Market, while a popular attraction, is free to observe and provides fantastic entertainment.

For accommodation, consider guesthouses or smaller hotels slightly outside the immediate city centre, or look into self-catering apartments, which can be more economical, particularly for longer stays. Alkmaar is also well-connected by train, allowing for easy day trips to and from other Dutch cities without the need for expensive car hire.
What cheap hotels in Alkmaar offer cooking facilities or kitchenettes?
For travellers seeking budget-friendly accommodation in Alkmaar with cooking facilities, the Grapèlli Boutique Hotel is a fantastic option.

The 3-star Grapèlli Boutique Hotel, boasting an impressive 9.6 rating, provides rooms equipped with kitchens, superb for those who prefer to prepare their own meals.

What free activities should we do in Alkmaar?
Alkmaar offers a delightful array of free activities, superb for budget-conscious solo travellers looking to immerse themselves in Dutch culture and history without spending a penny. Start your exploration by simply wandering through the charming historic city centre, where picturesque canals and gabled houses create a beautiful backdrop.

A highlight for any visitor is the world-famous Cheese Market, which runs from April to September on Friday mornings in Waagplein. While buying cheese isn't free, watching the traditional cheese carriers (kaasdragers) in their colourful costumes, weighing the huge cheese wheels, and experiencing the lively option is a completely free and unforgettable cultural spectacle.

Beyond the market, solo travellers can enjoy a leisurely stroll along the city's extensive canal network. The city is crisscrossed with waterways, and you can spend hours admiring the historic bridges and reflections on the water. For a touch of greenery, head to the city park, Westerhout Park, a lovely spot for a quiet walk or to simply relax and people-watch.
Is it cheaper to book flights and a hotel in Alkmaar as a package?
Booking a hotel and flight package on Expedia can be cheaper than booking flights and hotels separately. Bundling can lead to significant savings, especially for international travel or when booking well in advance. However, savings vary depending on factors like destination, travel dates, and availability, so it's wise to compare options. With access to over 300,000 hotels worldwide, Expedia makes it easy to build the perfect travel package.
