Broek in Waterland Holidays from £246

From this property easy to commute.

It was a great hotel .. a must try :) but the communication with the staf was difficult . The check in and out was by phone and as a traveller its not that easy with out wifi .. but other than that the place was great and imaginary :))

The hotel is only just outside the city centre but has good transport links and so getting around is very easy. The staff were friendly and the hotel was clean. The room was small but was en suite. The room also had team and coffee making facilities which is unusual for a budget hotel in the Netherlands and a welcome surprise. Sadly the TV in the room was broken, I reported this to reception only to be told many of the TVs in the hotel did not work and that it was down to the WIFI. Strangely the hotel WIFI worked fine and I was able to connect my phone it and use it without problem. I don't visit Amsterdam to watch TV but it is the reason this review is only 4 stars. The breakfast was good, continental buffet style and for only 10 euros a bargain. I will stay here again when I next visit Amsterdam.

We loved the view from the room - the highlight of this property. It was also clean and spacious for us as a family of 3. The beds were comfortable and the addition of a kettle, coffee maker and good-sized fridge was really helpful. It is let down by the condition in some areas - the main negative being the bad drain smell from the bathroom most of our stay. The smoke alarm in the room was also missing and there were areas that needed repair (panel in the kitchen comes off when you open the fridge door, and has a sharp edge so it slightly cut my husband's finger). We told the lady who came to meet us on our second day, and she apologised and said she was waiting for a new alarm, the panel would be seen to and the drains cleaned. By the end of the stay the drain smell was no better and the panel fixed back on with the same issues continuing. No smoke alarm. We had a great time in the city, we really enjoyed the view from the room and felt safe and mostly comfortable here. We wouldn't recommend it to friends and family because of the negative aspects which need to be addressed.

A very niche and quirky place to stay. Rooms are very unique but excellent. Staff were very friendly, welcoming, and helpful. Only thing I could fault would be that the water within the room wasn’t very warm

Super helpful and friendly staff, fantastic location, loads of great restaurants and bars close by and 15 min walk from the railway station. Lovely extras like the hand written welcome note and sweets in room. We stayed 3 nights inc breakfast, breakfast is table service, with lots of options. Really enjoyed our stay, definitely would come back.
