Almere Hotels with Parking

The hotel is far from the train station, the traffic is not particularly convenient, the environment is good, and there is a lake with a good view on the side. The hotel facilities are a bit old, the room is in general health, the key is that no one comes to clean for 3 days, this is unacceptable, not to mention the service

Really good value for money compared to Amsterdam prices for accommodation. I was visiting family in Almere so it was perfect for my visit, really close to the train station and near shops and cafes. The hotel itself and staff were lovely. Has the basics you would expect and I was very impressed with the turn-down service - I thought that was a very nice touch. The breakfast is quite expensive for continental so I ate out at a local cafe in the mornings. The area itself doesn't feel the safest, there are definitely some dodgy people in the area so I was always aware of my surroundings and vigilant but never had any problems, as I was visiting family, I wasn't out and about alone very frequently.

The room we were given was one for people with a disability, which meant it was very spacious. The decor was nice, the beds comfortable, although a little soft. The bathroom was also spacious and had everything a disabled person would need. It didn't bother us we were staying in this room. We didn't have breakfast but had a coffee which was good. Because this room is on the ground floor just behind reception and next to the breakfast room we did experience noise. There is a 24-hour coffee and tea making facility in the breakfast room which is great. However, when we were staying, there were people in there even in the middle of the night, as we could hear the chairs being used (scraping sound which was very audible in our room). That got worse when breakfast service really started in the morning. It made sleeping a little challenging. We would stay here again, but would definitely ask for a room on a higher floor and further away from the breakfast room. Check in and out was quick and easy and staff were friendly.

The booked room was supposed to be available in the early afternoon, but unfortunately this was not the case, as they had not yet made up the beds. We had to wait a total of one and a half hours in the reception hall until we could go to the room. The time we had to spend waiting for the room to be made available was sweetened with complimentary cappuccinos. The accommodations were very spacious and had a large bathroom with a double rain shower, a bathtub, and double sink vanities, though one had a clogged drain. The toilet was in a separate small room. It was nice to have two separate bedrooms, as this was a family accommodation. In one place the wallpaper had visibly come off the wall and in another place the cladding on the headboard of the bed was slightly damaged. Furthermore, the remote control of the TV was so dirty that we did not use it. All these problems could have been fixed by the room service before handing over the room to the guests. It was not easy to find a free parking space in the parking lot in front of the hotel, as this hotel is a popular conference hotel. There were several events held there, so the parking spaces were quite filled by the company employees who attended. The evening meal in the hotel restaurant was excellent, as you can read in my separate review. The breakfast buffet was also very good. The selection of cold and hot dishes was impressive and one wished that there was such a good choice elsewhere. It was very positive that after mentioning the above shortcomings, an apology was made for the inconveniences and a price reduction of about 13% was subsequently refunded. It can be assumed that in the current situation, this hotel also has staffing problems, like everywhere else in Europe, and that in normal times no problems would have occurred.

The pictures in my review should actually say enough. Some details: When I enter the room I felt a strong smell between (to) old air conditioning and body fluids. On the daily deck of the made bed, several dry white spots were (particularly ugly when you think about which body fluids it might actually smell). The window was very drunk so you could not enjoy the view of the parking lot ... On the seat, table and night table were Krümel and Dreck. Other smiling points were on the garden and in the bathroom on the tiles. The spider with spider net was not missing, of course. Emotion showed the room after 5 minutes stay more hygienic shortcomings than it was square meters large. The reception was friendly and helpful to respond to our concerns and reviewed the room. We received another, equivalent room and free breakfast. After a little bit of snake, we are then betrayed that the other rooms probably don't look really better. The breakfast of a ugly hotel, which was just a bitch in the first impression, we have naturally had to reject and wonder if there was the possibility of cancelling out of custom in such a case. We were given a number and assured us there of help. The lady on the phone referred to an email address. So far, I write back and back with the support that either answers the emails with copy/paste texts a la ad brochure or claims false statements. For example, the staff at the reception probably was asked for a wrong booking, because in his statement, a woman is the speech that checked in to my booking. I am just quite sure a man ... This is the way the service online is equal to the service on the site. All in all my biggest hotel failure to date. Cheap hotels on Malle and other bed and breakfast Eskakades included.
