Hotel terbaik di Halfweg

So clean and good!

This hotel is perfect for those who enjoy a rustics setting and gorgeous Dutch design. We stayed here with our family of 5 in late August. The property is about 15 minutes by Uber/taxi from central Amsterdam. The cabins/cottages are well appointed. The property does not have enough staff and the restaurant is only available from Wednesday thru Sunday. This is a problem as they don’t even have a vending machine. The hotel has an awesome spa, really cute dog and very nice rustic units. It needs better outdoor lighting and more staff and a better food situation. While we liked it I would stay in central Amsterdam if I return here..

Opgemerkt wordt dat de airconditioning niet werkt, wat leidt tot een benauwde kamer met een storend krakend geluid. De wasbak is verstopt, de doucheslang is van slechte kwaliteit en het water is te zwak voor een normale douche. Daarnaast worden de overmatige regels, zoals het vereisen van handtekeningen van elke bezoeker en de hoge parkeerkosten van 15 euro, als slechte klantenservice ervaren. Het lawaai in de gang en het ontbreken van een koelkast in de kamer worden ook genoemd als minpunten. Over het algemeen wordt geconcludeerd dat de ervaring niet de 260 euro waard is en dat de auteur niet van plan is om terug te keren naar het hotel.

The hotel is located on the outskirts of Amsterdam. It is 35 minutes ride via tram 17 from the central station, but you might have to wait it for about 10 minutes, and there is a 15 minutes walk from tram stop to hotel, so you are looking for about 1 hour to get from hotel to city center. It is a residential area, and there is nothing interesting nearby though you can eat at a very decent Sahan restaurant. On the other hand we saw rabbits and geese near the hotel :-) The room and bathroom were really large, there were beds, a chair, and armchair, a desk, a small round table, a dresser, a closet. The breakfast cost 14.50 euro. and it was excellent. There were hot items (scrambled eggs, fried bacon, kidney beans), cheese, sausages, fruits, pastries, different type of bread, juices, etc. The room and bathroom were clean but the cleaning team cold do better (I accidently dropped a cotton ball on the shower floor and found it on the next day on the same place). Unfortunately there was no tea/coffee in the room. You can buy tea at the reception but it would cost 2 euro. There was no refrigerator in the room. The staff is nice and helping customers providing maps etc. The hotel located about 15-20 minutes from the airport which is also convenient for visiting Keukenhof gardens.

We are so glad we chose this hotel. There is shuttle bus to Airport, and airport to the central is convenient and fast. Most importantly, Christian the staff at reception was amazing. He was so sincere, we have enjoyed Amsterdam thankful for his informations. And other staffs were all smiling and nice. The room is so clean. Perfect. Would like to stay here again.

We were greeted with really friendly and happy faces who made us feel welcomed at the get go. They also went above and beyond by providing us a map of Amsterdam! The hotel itself was very clean and well presented/decorated. Fresh towels were given on demand and beds made for us daily. There wasn’t anything we needed that wasn’t provided and although we hadn’t selected the breakfast included option when booking, we still had the option to pay for breakfast on the days we wanted to, with only a small fee. Check in and out was quick and smooth. Very easy to travel to the centre of Amsterdam with a tram stop only 2 mins away, not to mention the shops/eateries right outside the hotel doorstep. Overall an amazing experience and probably the best hotel I’ve stayed in! Thank you for the amazing stay!

Positives: The hotel was clean and tidy, no clutter or mess. Shower was great in the en-suite, large shower head. Coffee machine in room was great, could have done with more coffee pods than one a day but otherwise was good. Modern room. It was a pleasant hotel, we felt safe and the room was adequate Good transport routes into city centre (average 30 min travel time) NEGATIVES: Booked a double room and received two twin beds. Informed they only give doubles to those who book directly with them, if you're booking with booking.com you will receive two twin beds. Requested a double duvet, told they didn't have any spares and wouldn't be possible. MATTRESS WAS VERY UNCOMFORTABLE. Only given one square pillow on each bed requested an additional pillow and was told it would be brought to our room, upon returning that night the pillows hadn't been brought up. Checked with reception who informed us that housekeeping had gone for the day, she didn't have keys as she was night staff and we would have to wait until the morning. Just unfortunately the bed situation with it being so uncomfortable, that was a deal breaker. It gave us both such bad backs, we were unable to fully enjoy our holiday as we weren't well rested and suffered with back ache for most of the trip. Would not return to this chain of hotels. TV only has two channels. No spoon given with hot drink section. Staff were nonexistent. Don't bother trying to speak to any housekeeping staff member as you will get ignored. Sink design was flawed, very shallow bowl with a slant so anything you poured it would come gushing out onto you. Claim to have a 'luggage storage room', don't be fooled. This is merely an under the stair cupboard in their foyer which isn't locked and is accessible to all. No individual areas for people's luggage, it all gets thrown on top of each other in there.

Me and my friend booked this hotel as there were good reviews, which is very important to us as we came from Norway to stay there for 6 days. It was also our first time in Amsterdam and were not familiar with the location. We were first checked into a wrong room than the one we had booked, and were told that we could move the next morning to another one. After we were moved to a bigger room, they told us we had to pay 50 euros due to the ”cleaning from the other room”, which we expect to be included in the price we already paid for our stay. Never experienced this before. Some staff don't smile, don't say hello, and looked strange at us when we walked through the reception. The next days our new room was not cleaned at all, one day they only came to make the bed, the next day they only came with new towels on the door. One day the cleaning lady also rushed in without knocking while we were in bed, which we thought was very unprofessional. We did not feel comfortable or safe at all staying here. We will not be going back here. Location is also pretty far from the centrum
