Independent - accommodation in Zaandam

This hotel was recommended by my niece who is a pilot and stays here often. What a beautiful, perfect hotel. The location is perfect. Directly on canal across from train station with a variety of trams, trains and boats to make exploring the city convenient. The hotel is sumptuous. The staff impeccable, especially front desk and concierge staff. The room is modern, large, luxury linens and comfortable bed, fluffy robes, coffee maker etc. The whole vibe is Amsterdam chic with a large dollop of luxury. The bar is lively and elegant and several restaurants in site are perfect. If you are coming to Amsterdam, this is the place to stay.

Generally, everything was excellent. Check in was simple and quick, as was check out. All the staff were friendly and helpful. Breakfast had plenty of choice. Room was clean and spacious. No fridge though, although I expect the hotel has good reasons for not providing one.

Great location, easily walkable to train station and attractions
