Hotel berhampiran Batavialand di Lelystad

The hotel is typical of many that cater primarily for business people but we were part of a tour group so the dynamics between guest and hotel were perhaps different to those that a solo traveler would experience. The checkin was efficient and friendly and there are two lifts to all floors. Our room was clean and functional and had everything we needed, enough storage for our clothes, a safe, tea and coffee facilities and a coffee machine. Also a very efficient shower. No problem with lighting in the corridor or any other public area. The bar service was excellent and there were plenty of comfortable chairs to relax in. In contrast to the previous reviewer I found the meals to be generally very good but somewhat simple as I suspect these were prepared just for our group, normal guests would be directed to the two independent restaurants on the ground floor: a steak house and the ‘Tasty Wok’. The restaurant staff were very helpful and would do all they could to help people with allergies. Breakfast was a very good buffet, if you cannot find what you like here then you are hard to please! I enjoyed my stay.

Uitstekende service van het hotel personeel (restaurant, balie) maar ook van het iets verderop gelegen ”schiet” restaurant/cafe. De hotel deluxe kamer was prima (ja wat gedateerd maar is ook een kwestie van smaak), voldoende ruimte voor een sportief stel. De twee bedden waren comfortabel alleen schoven de matrassen steeds uit elkaar. Bij het kijken van een film op bed (laptop) kwamen we steeds tegen de lichtknopjes aan die in de achterwand zijn verwerkt waardoor het licht steeds aan ging. Het restaurant is voorzien van verschillende soorten zitgelegenheden (tafels, banken en stoelen) dus voor iedereen wat wils. De keuken staat open voor speciale wensen zoals bijvoorbeeld voor mensen op een low carb dieet, die geen gebruik maken van plantaardige olie en eventueel vervangen van bijvoorbeeld een groente garnituurtje met in ons geval een gebakken ei. De sauna (gratis te reserveren) was prima alleen hing er geen klok om de tijd in de gaten te houden en er was geen mogelijkheid om een warm voetbad te nemen zoals aangegeven op de posters. Ideaal hotel om een korte schietvakantie door te brengen.

First of all let me tell you that we booked 4 nights in a Topsuite.Fotos are really amazing and look quite new BUT do not trust the fotos.They do not reflect the reality of this Van der Valk hotel.Location to visit the Floriade as well as the check-in were ok. Parking is free.When entering our Topsuite we immediately realized that an empty cup of coffee was still on the floor in front of our door.You can see several trays with the rest of room service food in front of many doors during the whole day....nobody cares.(see fotos)The suite was so dirty in corners,next to walls,or inside shower !You could even write your name inthe dust INSIDE ALL wardroabs and cabinets.Worst of all was the Nespressomachine(please see fotos!!)Frames,TV as well as all other details haven't been cleaned since days....You got a rainforestshower as well as a handshower,BUT the last one did not function.Impossible to get your shampoo out of your hair! We went down to reception to clarify with the manager.We were told that she was out of office at that time but they could reclean?! the suite if we want. Referring to the shower we were told that they would check...As we asked to change the suite we were told that there was no availability at that time.Ok! May be everything would be arranged the other day....As we returned back in the late morning on the following day NOTHING DID CHANGE!No shower,the room was made but still dirty and the cup of coffee still in front of the door.... Let me tell you guys that in this hotel they don't put Kleenexpapers near the sinks!you have to use toiletpaper if you are missing your Kleenex.. For dinner you will meet a very unprofessional service(so lived on OUR table),may be other guests get a better one. For breakfast we noticed that ALL white yoghurts did pass there Expiry dates!!We told the staff about the fact and they took all away.Nobody seems to control expiry dates when putting food on the buffet.We did show the yoghurt pot at the reception and everybody was ”really” sorry about that fact and promised us to tell the manager.... As on second day in the evening no message came from the general manger about our complaints,I once again went to reception and finally met the manager.She told me that she heard about our ”Problems” and that she would understand our frustration....nothing constructive from her side.”the suites have to be clean dear guest?”...Ok we agree..BUT?As we didn't want to spoil our holidays in this famous hotel we CHECKED OUT after the first night and leaved this VAN DER VALK hotel in the evening.

The hotel was fine, but I agree with the previous reviewer that there is an extractor fan on all the time which is a bit annoying. I quite like Almere itself. It's modern but not depressing like so many newly built areas in Britain. The main problem is the cost of going to and from Amsterdam each day on the train. I was told that you can buy a ticket for 3 days on the train. You can't buy one at Almere Centrum station. You can't buy one at the ticket machines at Amsterdam Centraal station. Or the information kiosks. There is supposed to be a special kiosk at Centraal but I didn't manage to find it. Another thing is that the coffee often tastes horrible. I didn't have coffee at this hotel but at several places in the Netherlands I did. They don't seem to use fresh milk. I don't know if it's UHT or sterilised or maybe some kind of coffee creamer. If you go to Dunkin Donuts though you can choose fresh milk. There is one in Almere and a few in Amsterdam. Or buy a half litre in a supermarket and take it with you if you go to a cafe.
