Hotels near Rijksmonument het Hooge Huys uit 1931, Alkmaar

On 16 and 17 February, I was here with my wife for two nights, this hotel has 4 stars, a mystery of where they have them. The room (which was in a building on the side of the main building) was small, poorly maintained, not well cleaned and obeyed. There is a folder on the room about a kind of cousin guarantee and service with different types of cousins, but if you ask for it, the staff will not understand what this folder does on the rooms. All kinds of kisses they have already been on the bed, and this bed is on the gentle side, so I will come out with my back the next morning. The drink card contains a lot of different beer types but only 2 are available. Also from breakfast you should not imagine too much, it is a running buffet with a few breads and breads, egg, spoon 2 types of cheese, 3 types of meat bag and a few cucumbers of pineapple cheese and jam. You must be in the row for a cup of coffee and often stand in the row to wait 5 minutes before your turn. However, it must be said that the staff is very friendly, helpful and understandable. The staff is the only one that meets the number of stars, and my question is: Who gives those stars? I think it can't even be able to be in the better regions for three stars, but four stars are still left. The main building looks good outside, but it remains an old building with a lot of maintenance.

We took a sate, and asked for a full red wine. The service advised a certain wine we agreed with. When we then got the bill, the wine was €8.00 per glass!!!!!! We find it obviously ridiculous and incredibly unfriendly for the customer that the service advises a wine but not mentioning that the wine is €8.00 per glass. We find this rather overdrived by a satin and I think that a cheaper wine would have been good too. In addition, for a €8.00 wine, I think that the bottle should have been given to the table in the glass and tested. This is now the 2nd bad experience (the first time was with a cup of coffee for which it was later found to be paid expensive, also unannounced) Be open and fair to the customer and let them decide what they want to spend their money so they don't get a bill for something they wouldn't agree with!!!

We had previously stayed at RCN Vakantiepark Toppershoedje - Ouddorp for a week. From the cleanliness this was much better. We had to remove some hair and vacuum the apar**ent again. The toilet in the bathroom had to be disinfected because it wasn't really clean. The worst thing was the air conditioning. It was moldy on the inside and we couldn't use it. The older lady at the reception seems very arrogant. A pity. The younger lady makes up for it. Unfortunately, there is only a simple vending machine where you can buy sweets and water. Ice is still available at reception, but it closes at odd hours. That's not enough, especially when the restaurant is closed. That was a pity too. The swimming pool is good. But plates are already coming loose. Also the playground is not nice and is very simple. All in all, the houses are well furnished and the region is great. Value for money could be better. Wir waren vorher eine Woche im RCN Vakantiepark Toppershoedje - Ouddorp. Von der Sauberkeit war dieser deutlich besser. Wir mussten einige Haare entfernen und die Wohnung nochmals saugen. Im Bad musste die Toilette desinfiziert werden, da nicht richtig sauber. Am schlimmsten war die Klimaanlage. Die war von innen verschimmelt und wir konnten sie nicht nutzen. Die ältere Dame am Empfang wirkt sehr arrogant. Schade. Das macht die jüngere Dame dafür wieder gut. Leider gibt es nur einen simplen Automaten, bei dem man Süßigkeiten und Wasser kaufen kann. An der Rezeption gibt es noch Eis, aber die schließt zu ungewöhnlichen Zeiten. Das ist zu wenig, vor allem, wenn das Restaurant geschlossen ist. Das war auch schade. Das Schwimmbad ist gut. Aber es lösen sich schon Platten. Auch der Spielplatz liegt nicht schön und ist sehr simpel. Alles in allem sind die Häuser gut eingerichtet und die Region ist toll. Preis-Leistung könnte besser sein.

Great hotel but could be fantastic with a few changes. We had a big room which felt like something between a hotel room and an apartment - but it was ‚between‘. One could cook a full meal in the small kitchen but it was in the same room as a great bathtub. One was in a hotel but could not make a coffee or tea in room but had a fridge for ‚4 people‘…..some things really well designed (eg bathtub in room) but at the same time Tork paper towel holders and varied things loose, eg clothes hangers on wall, water tap. All in all a bit ‚between‘. Party downstairs was not a big problem for us but did wake us up a few times in the night. Breakfast ok but with just a bit more ‚touch‘, it could have been great.
