Grand Hotel Alkmaar

Kamar mandi dengan pancuran di bak mandi, tanpa rak. Hanya 2 tempat tidur single bersama-sama. Selimut yang terlalu kecil. WiFi buruk! Akhirnya mendapat kamar lain, tapi tidak ada rak di lemari!

Hotel ini terletak di daerah yang bagus dan sentral di Alkmaar. Stafnya sangat ramah. Ada beberapa hal yang saya tidak suka, dan saya berharap pihak hotel memperhatikan hal-hal berikut: Masuk ke hotel bintang empat dengan meja depan resepsionis yang berdebu memang tidak membuat nyaman, apalagi mengingat masih adanya pandemi sehingga membutuhkan kebersihan. Hotel ini memberikan perasaan sedih, karena tidak dikelola dengan baik - tidak ada satu bunga pun yang hidup sepanjang mata memandang. Karpetnya, berwarna coklat, rusak dan berdebu bukanlah aspek positif. Di kamar yang saya renetd (550 Euro untuk dua malam, sebenarnya kamar hotel terbaik) ada kulkas... tapi itu benar-benar kosong, bahkan tidak ada satu botol air pun untuk malam itu!!! Tidak ada sandal, tidak ada topi mandi atau mantel mandi... sarapannya pasti tidak sampai ke hotel bintang empat. Koridor panjang yang harus dilalui untuk sampai ke kamar.

Beautiful rooms. Great atmosphere. Very friendly staff who was doing all they could to make my stay comfortable. Breakfast was perfect.

Grand Hotel Alkmaar was a great stay and we are very happy to leave a 5 star rating. The staff was very friendly and professional, the hotel is very authentic with lots of old dutch architecture features left, a very cosy bar and restaurant and the room was great. Even though we did book the economy room, it did not feel economy at all. Very spacious, very well designed and contemporary, very clean (including the bathroom). Would stay here ant time again and I can recommend it to any visitor looking to book here. For visitors with a car, please be aware this hotel is in the city centre and there is no car parking facility direct with the car.

Anniversary Bliss at Grand Hotel AlkmaarReview: Our anniversary stay at Grand Hotel Alkmaar was a dream come true! The staff extended our stay and surprised us with an upgraded room, adding an extra touch of luxury to our celebration. Impeccably clean, with stunning views and exceptional service, it was the perfect backdrop for our special day. Highly recommended for a memorable getaway!

Great location, very friendly staff - nice room. The bathroom could do with a little update though - would be nice with a proper shelf for shampoo, lotions, etc. There’s only a sink and in the shower itself a little holder for soap.. Putting stuff on the floor is no option, because it will get extremely wet (everywhere..) The combination faucet/sink hasn’t been thought through either, everything gets wet. But apart from the question marks we had about the bathroom design, we would definitely recommend the hotel.

Great hotel with friendly and helpful staff. Ideally located in the city. The room we had was very spacious, with a comfy bed, bathtub, double shower and a sauna. The hotel offers an extensive breakfast buffet, and has a bar on site. Some parts need to TLC, but overall a great stay!

This can be a nice hotel to stay when visiting charming, Alkmaar but there are some things to consider. I hope this post helps. The pros: This is my second stay at the Grand Alkmaar hotel, once for a week in April 2023 and then again for another week in Dec 2023. This is my first review of this hotel. The hotel is conveniently located in the city center next to shopping, restaurants, the local grocery store and the weekly market will literally be right at your doorstep on Saturday, (can you say freshly baked mini pancakes or warm pressed, fresh off the grill stroop waffles.) The daily breakfast is convenient and tasty, offering bacon, sausage, eggs, sliced deli meats, croissants, pastries, juices, coffee etc. The staff was very accommodating, providing everything that I needed from fresh towels, an ironing board, a taxi service, restaurant recommendations, you name it. They are the reason for the extra star in my review. The cons: The hotel could use some modern updates: The shower in my room was extraordinary high, making it a bit treacherous to navigate getting in and out, not to mention with the design of European showers that don't full block water from the shower from getting on the floor in the bathroom. This seems to be a common European thing from what I can tell. Additionally the carpet is brown, which just doesn't offer the cleanest feeling. I get it though, it's the Netherlands, it's always raining so any other carpet might stain really easily from rain , mud, dirt etc, but maybe it's time to replace that carpet with a more friendly looking option or betty yet, a carpet alternative. The noise: While it can be quiet some nights, other nights you can definitely hear noise from the street, people talking, a party happening near by, the bells ringing (Oh don't get me on the bells.... bells bonus content later in posting) . For me, it's imperative to bring ear plugs when I stay here, otherwise the noise from the bells that ring every 15 mins......yes....every 15 mins :( will be disruptive to sleep. Of course this is no fault of the hotel, but the hotel could use more sound proofing as a result. The bed/bedding: Others in my party complained about the comfort of the bed, but for me personally it was okay. The only problem was that they only give you these very heavy comforters, which is problematic because this hotel runs hot. Every day of my 14 night stay at this hotel between my two trips, I was burning up. It's important when you leave the room to leave the window cracked, so that it's cooler when you return and to adjust the heat so that it's off or on cool. Unfortunately, that was the one thing they couldn't help me with at the front desk. The room was as cool as it could get. I just had to open the window and you know what that means, You then hear those darn, torturous bells every 15 mins waking you, at just the moment you start to doze off and then you feel rushed to go to sleep within the next 15 mins and t

The room we got was on the street side. At the check in we asked if the room was a bit quit otherwise we would like to have another one. After some searching the host told it was ok regarding the noise at this time of the year. In the evening when we got at the room the noise was very loud (music from a bar), even with windows and ventilation shutters closed. We got the offer to switch rooms at 23:15 but that was too late... A bit disappointing because at the check in we already mentioned it. No room at the street side for us next time 😊
