Lovely views from the room, the room itself was comfortable and clean, with fresh towels provided every day. Digital hotel therefore, no physical key card and everything was on my phone. There is a Spar shop located opposite the hotel and a big supermarket located 10/15 minute walk away. Zanse Schans windmill village was a short 5 minute walk across the bridge. The train station Zaandijk Zanse Schans, was 10 minute walk away and provided direct Sprinters into Amsterdam Central every 30 minutes. The room came with amenities and a smart TV, with apps like Netflix and YouTube already installed. Lovely sized bed and comfortable to sleep in. Food from the cafe was lovely and reasonably priced, and the mini fridge within the room was big enough to store food bought elsewhere. Air-conditioning unit within the room which worked brilliantly both providing heat and cooling. Plenty of plug sockets around the room, as well as direct USB slots into the wall at the desk area.

The cafe/restaurant below the hotel was lovely however only open for 6 hours in the middle of the day, meaning not an option for dinner. Breakfast was included however not what was expected, no breakfast options just a brown paper bag of sandwiches, water and an apple provided each day, no option to pick a breakfast and too much food given. The 24/7 pizza dispenser that was outside the main entrance did not work for the entire duration of our stay. During the opening hours of the cafe it can get quite noisy as the room was located directly above the outdoor seating area therefore we kept the window shut.

Best hotel location in Zaanse Schans, next to the bridge before all of the windmills. The area is so picturesque but has a million tourists daily. Staying in the hotel gives you a chance to see the sights before a million people arrive, see the draw bridge lifted, morning fog, and enjoy coffee or meals in the restaurant attach to the hotel. The bakery across the street is great, there’s public parking lot behind the bakery. Hotel gives you digital key, make sure you complete the steps to pay city tax couple days before check in, immediately after they email you. A great place to stay in Zaandijk!

This property, right on the river Zaan, might have one of the most iconic views in Amsterdam: it looks over to Zanse Schans, an outdoor museum where you can walk by (and in) several windmills. The hotel feels brand-new with modern and comfortable rooms. Breakfast in the attached restaurant was amazing, with very quick service and a wide variety of food. This is a great place to stay.

The property uses remote internet checkin, with a link to an app that you need to use when standing next to the door of your room. We were not told about this until the day before arrival. Then, when we were concerned that we would not have immediate internet access (we were flying in from outside the country) we messaged the property and no one ever responded. It turned out fine (at the entrance to the hotel, there were printed instructions, including how to access their wifi if needed) but the communication in advance could have been much better.

Amazing digital keys. Everything was easy from Check in to check out. All online but we were fine. Amazing location as well. Not crowded, and walking distance to the zaanse schans. Bus 67 stops nearby. Also easy walk from the zaanse train station. Lovely room. No issues about the view from the room. Ground floor room. Bakery nearby and SPAR is also available nearby. I’ve seen restaurants too. The place is so clean.

We had a good sized room with a wonderful view of the windmills and bridge. It was so lovely to have this fabulous view. Everywhere was exceptionally clean and all the staff friendly. The breakfasts were excellent and the young man serving us each morning (we were there 5 nights) was friendly, caring and enthusiastic. He is a credit to the business. We would definitely stay at this hotel again and would highly recommend it.

Nothing - it was all excellent.

We loved the location but check in was a bit confusing if you were busy travelling and hadn’t checked emails. It was a digital code to get in at first and card key was in your room. Never seen anyone at reception the whole stay. Bathroom was spotless but the walls in bedroom were a bit scuffed and under the bed hadn’t been cleaned. There is a little store, bakery and pub across the road.

The room was excellent. No complaints. We like the restaurant in the hotel and has a beautiful outdoor patio, you can see the river Zaan and the the windmills. The breakfast was included with the room rate and you were given a variety of eats that was delicious. Location was central to all other restaurants and sight seeing tours. The staff was very welcoming and had a great variety of knowledge that helped us get around town. Very nice staff. Highly recommended stay.

Not one dislike for this hotel.

The hotel is located in a beautiful location, four stops by train from Amsterdam, get off at the Zaanse Schans stop. Trains run exactly on schedule. It's a leisurely ten minute walk from the station to the hotel. The hotel is located in an old two-story house with one side overlooking the bridge, the water and the Zaanse Schans. On the other side there is a view of the village. The room is clean, cleaning every day, good workers. The bed is large and high, the mattress is comfortable, four good pillows. The plumbing worked well, there was always cold and hot water. Breakfast at the hotel is simple but filling. Amlet or boiled eggs, fried bacon, three types of sliced sausage, cheese, cucumbers, tomatoes, herbs. You can make toast. Yogurt, cereal, croissants and other delicious things. Tasty coffee. Breakfast on the beautiful terrace is impressive and unforgettable. The hotel has very friendly and pleasant staff. Thank you very much for your warm welcome, we felt at home.

In the bathroom there is no place to hang towels and clothes, no place to put your shampoo and hair conditioner when you take a shower.

We stayed in the family rooms that are located in the annex of the hotel, which is about 100 meters away from the main hotel building. The rooms were good and provided good option for a 3 person family. Rooms had Airco and great bathrooms. The continental breakfast in the morning was excellent and we appreciated having that included in the booking.

The pull out couch was very hard and uncomfortable. Would be good to provide a mattress topper for this, that would solve this problem.

Location very close to village and trains. Rooms were very comfortable, staff was exceptionally helpful and friendly. Small store across the street for last minute things. Other places to eat close by.

Kitchen was under renovation so breakfast was a box type, still filling though, and dinner was impossible in hotel. 2nd stay In hotel usually great food. Parking is very limited across the street. You need to either park early morning and leave your vehical or wait for a spot in the evening as someone leaves. But we found space.
